The average of iron intake for girl was 12.7 mg/day and for boy was 14.0 mg/day and the average of hemoglobin concentration for girl was 11.3 g/dL and for boy was 11.6 g/dL. Pearson test between iron intake and hemoglobin concentration showed r = 0.372; p = 0.043 and r2 was 0,138 means iron intake influence hemoglobin concentration about 13,8% in this research.
