Question: are red beans high in iron?
Answer: Other Beans and Peas Other types of beans contain good amounts of iron as well. White, lima, red kidney and navy beans closely follow soybeans, offering 4.4–6.6 mg of iron per cup cooked, or 24–37% of the RDI (8, 9, 10, 11). However, chickpeas and black-eyed peas have the highest iron content.
