Beef is one of the most important dietary sources of iron. To obtain the same amount of iron found in a 3-oz serving of beef, you’d have to eat at least 3 cups of raw spinach.

3 cups of broccoli have 11.1 grams of protein vs. 3-oz, serving of beef provides 25 grams of protein. Active individuals (pregnant women & growing teens) are encouraged to get 75-80 grams of protein/day equaling 24 cups of

broccoli to reach 80 grams or a 9-10 oz. steak.
