The opposite spectrum, high blood iron, does other things.
Not sure exactly what, never did fully read it.

Iron is toxic in higher quantities.
The most common acidental poisoning of infants in the home is gett hold of mom's iron supplements. It is often fatal.

Here's a story about visiting Mt St Helens. The volcano is why we moved to Mossyrock so many years ago.

Hmm.. EEks.
Makes me wonder why I'm still moving around then.
Considering the blood iron test showed the nice little drop of blood sinking like a stone.
(I still chalked that up to having food that was high in iron on top of the vites...)

My step-daughter was listed as anemic, even though she had high iron level as well.
(She could also take a gold object, usually a ring, and write on her arm with it. The gold would leave a greenish black streak on her skin. But only during the times the docs said she was 'anemic'. And not at any other time. *Shrugs* I guess I know weird people, or the people I know really ARE from someplace else entirely.)
