Definition - What does Radio Frequency Identification Reader (RFID Reader) mean?

Radio waves are used to transfer data from the tag to a reader. RFID is a technology similar in theory to bar codes.
During pregnancy a womanâs blood volume doubles to support and nourish the growing fetus, meaning she needs even more daily iron to meet the blood count demands. A pregnant woman needs 27 milligrams of iron per day -- 30 percent more than when she's not pregnant. If you're breastfeeding, your iron needs decrease to 9 milligrams a day.
For adults, the RDA for iron is 8 mg/day for men ages 19 and older, and women ages 51 and older. For women 19 to 50 years, the RDA is 18 mg/day. For pregnant women, the RDA is 27 mg/day. For breast-feeding women, the RDA is 10 mg/day for ages 14 to 18 years, and 9 mg/day for ages 19 to 50.
