The absorption of soluble inorganic iron added to a meal increases in parallel with the absorption of nonheme iron, but ascorbic acid has a much smaller effect on insoluble iron compounds, such as ferric oxide or ferric hydroxide, which are common food contaminants.
Best Answer: The information that Carnival gave you IS CORRECT. All cruise lines have a minimum age limit and on all others there is a requirement that at least one (1) person in each cabin be age 21 or older (for Carnival its age 25).

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the minimum employment age is 14 for many jobs, though federal law also restricts the number of hours that a 14- or 15- year old can work each week. Workers aged 16 or 17 aren't subject to federal restrictions on work hours. Federal law prohibits anyone under the age of 18 from working in hazardous industries or operating dangerous equipment.
