Hi! I am a 38 year old female and have had high levels of iron for many years. It seemed alarming to me, but my doctors have always told me that it was a good thing because so many people were deficient. Thank you for this eye-opening article!

I've heard 50% of people over 50 years old have iron deficiency. Yet we are super concerned about anti-oxidents. Iron is an oxident. But hold your breath for 4 minutes and tell me how important Oxygen is. Hematocrosis is genetic. Oxygen is very important to life and you should check if you are iron deficient especially if you are over 50.
