The danger is that once absorbed, iron can only be excreted in minute amounts of less than one milligram a day (or by heavy blood loss), and excess iron collects in a person's vital organs, thus, setting the disease process underway. As organs literally rust away, patients can experience early death by a heart attack, arthritis, liver, pancreatic and colon cancer, increased infections, cirrhosis, diabetes, neurological problems, loss of hearing, tinnitus, depression, impotence, and infertility. Scientists have now discovered a connection to iron impropriety and Alzheimer's, early-onset Parkinson's, Huntington's, attention deficit disorder, and epilepsy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eExposing the Hidden Dangers of Iron\u003c\/em\u003e is an excellent introduction for medical professionals to the intricacies of iron in the various body systems.
