— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
青春期女性因月經週期開始，鐵質需求量大增。非血基質鐵（植物性來源）的吸收率較低，維生素 C 可改變腸道環境以利於鐵離子的吸收。D 選項錯誤，鈣質會抑制鐵吸收；B、A 選項皆會導致鐵質攝取不足，不符生長需求。
Female adolescents require increased iron intake due to menstruation, and consuming non-heme iron sources with vitamin C enhances absorption by creating an acidic intestinal environment. Avoiding red meat or plant-based iron sources leads to deficiency, and taking supplements with milk inhibits absorption due to calcium interference.
