I don't really know. That's a hard one! I don't think it does though.

No.Certainly NOT

Apples aren't a sufficient source of iron.

Insufficient iron in your diet, is one of the causes of anaemia. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which is contained in your red blood cells. It carries the oxygen to the cells in your body where it is needed to produce energy. If you do not have enough iron, there is insufficient haemoglobin to take oxygen to the tissues of your body. Common symptoms of anaemia include tiredness, dizzy spells, shortness of breath and palpitations.

Iron from animal products is more easily absorbed by the body than the iron in plant foods. To help your body absorb the iron, take vitamin C rich foods with your meals, e.g. orange juice with breakfast cereals, tomatoes (grilled or in a salad) with dark green vegetables. Tannin in tea can affect the absorption of iron, so drinking tea and to a lesser degree coffee, is better between rather than with meals.

Vegetarians and women with heavy periods are at risk of iron deficiency anaemia and may need iron tablets which can be readily obtained from the chemist.

You can help to prevent anaemia by ensuring that you eat an iron rich diet. The following foods are high in iron (foods marked with an asterisk are particularly high in iron.)

Liver* (not to be taken during pregnancy
Bran flakes*
Beans, e.g. baked beans*, kidney beans
Dried apricots*
Lean beef steak
Lean minced beef
Chicken breast
Tuna
White fish
Egg yolks
Wholemeal bread
Muesli
Green vegetables, e.g. spinach and peas
Cashew nuts
Sesame seeds
Raisins

when placed in open air,it turns brown which is due to the oxidization of the iron presnt in it
So,according to me it certainly contains iron.

Yes
In the apple has to be maximum iron

No. National survey of pediatric health professionals confirms that apple juice is the first juice most often recommended for infants. Since apple juice is so well accepted and pleasing, according to the survey, it remains the fruit juice of choice for babies and toddlers. Apple juice also has a mild laxative effect that may help provide relief from constipation commonly experienced by little ones.

Also, Apple juice fortified with vitamin C may help children ABSORB more IRON,, an important nutrient for growth and development.
