How much iron does a vegetarian need?

He eats his spinach!
After the worry about where we would get enough protein comes the concern - where will we get enough iron?

Already anaemic enough to make a convincing family of vampires, we don't want to be neglecting this part of our diet.

There are, of course, supplements that we can take (and we currently ARE taking them) but ultimately, I would rather get all the nutrients we need from our daily diet.

So, how much iron does a body need?
