Reported dietary intake for lunch groups.

Lunch Group	Baseline				Intervention
	Adj protein (g)	Adj iron (mg)	Adj heme iron (mg)	Adj meat iron (mg)	Adj protein (g)	Adj iron (mg)	Adj heme iron (mg)	Adj meat iron (mg)
Beef	44 ± 2.1	7.3 ± 0.3	0.5 ± 0.1	1.0 ± 0.2	41 ± 1 *	7.3 ± 0.2	0.6 ± 0.0 †	1.2 ± 0.1 †

Note: Food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) data for beef and non-beef lunch group at baseline (FFQ 1) and during the intervention (FFQs 2–5). Adj = Adjusted value expressed as per 1000 kcals (4.184 MJ); * p < 0.01 main effect of FFQ number (baseline vs. intervention); † p < 0.05 main effect of group; p < 0.01 effect of interaction of group × FFQ number; p < 0.01 Tukey’s post-hoc comparison of beef vs. non-beef.
