Eggplant is the “king of vegetables” but these 4 types of people should avoid it

1. People with Anemia or Iron Deficiency

For illustration purposes only.

The skin of eggplants contains anthocyanin. This substance “captures” iron ions found in other foods in the body, reducing iron absorption. It also has an effect on how zinc and copper ions are absorbed. People with anemia or iron deficiency should avoid eggplant and instead consume iron-rich foods such as red meat and animal liver.
