The tympanometer measures the admittance or compliance of the tympanic membrane while different pressures are being applied to the external ear canal. The compliance of the TM is measured in cubic centimeters, and the pressure in the ear canal is measured in decapascals (daPa).The probe has different size plugs that provide a seal at the entrance to the external ear canal.hysics of the Tympanogram. If the middle ear space is filled with fluid, most of the sound is reflected back to the probe from the stiff tympanic membrane. If the middle ear space is filled with air, and the ossicles are intact, energy is absorbed by the tympanic membrane, ossicles, and inner ear structures.
While iron is better absorbed from heme (meat) sources, non-heme (plant) iron is better regulated causing less damage to the body. High iron foods include clams, liver, sunflower seeds, nuts, beef, lamb, beans, whole grains, dark leafy greens (spinach), dark chocolate, and tofu. The current daily value (DV) for iron is 18 milligrams (mg). Below is a list of high iron foods. For more high iron foods see the lists of high iron foods by nutrient density, iron rich foods (heme and non-heme), and the list of fruits and vegetables high in iron. #1: Squash and Pumpkin Seeds. Other Seeds High in Iron (%DV per ounce (28g)): Sesame (23%), Sunflower (11%), and Flax (9%).
Iron in plant foods such as lentils, beans, and spinach is nonheme iron. This is the form of iron added to iron-enriched and iron-fortified foods.Our bodies are less efficient at absorbing nonheme iron, but most dietary iron is nonheme iron.1  1.ron-Rich Foods. Very good sources of heme iron, with 3.5 milligrams or more per serving, include: 1  3 ounces of beef or chicken liver. 2  3 ounces of clams, mollusks, or mussels. 3  3 ounces of oysters.
