Saw a vid of someone with Gerber baby meal mix in a plastic bag, the mix had "now with more Iron!" on the box, she ran a magnet over it and what do you know, large iron shavings were racing straight to it
Iron deficiency anemia is more likely copper deficiency.
Iron from beef liver is so easy to put in baby's food now that you can get it in powder form...there is NO FUCKING REASON to put iron shavings in baby food.
Correct, iron accumulation is particularly toxic. In fact it's much worse than a deficiency. The list of diseases caused by long term iron excess is really long and unfortunately very common.
Iron heavy well water and cooking in cast iron pans are some sources of too much iron. Women are mostly protected while menstruating, but menopause can bring on problems for some. Blood donation can get rid of excess iron.
Always have a FULL proper iron panel done for accuracy.
