I’ve seen countless doctors about my symptoms (internal tremors, trouble breathing upon falling asleep, chest pains, poor circulation, etc). They all attributed it to anxiety. I finally saw a holistic doctor and be immediately said it’s iron overload. Getting blood work done this week. Let’s see what happens. I need relief
@@Zerturnosrs Yes, but it doesn’t seem to be iron overload. My tests came back normal, including iron levels. The investigation continues. I have been using some new strategies that seem to be improving things for me (getting my dopamine baseline back to normal, no eating 3 hours before bed, etc). Considering that your levels are high, you should fight to rule out every possibility. It might be iron overload - most American doctors aren’t even familiar with the condition. Get as many 2nd opinions as needed for you to be 1000% sure
It's amazing that you did a video explaining this. So few people have heard of it in the United States - even family physicians. It runs in my family quite extensively.
Black tea ! Only black tea, nothing more! I using high dose multivitamin without iron. The zinc and copper helps reduce the iron level too. I using them too, in my multivitamin complex.@@marypolk9820
My step dad developed iron overload as he aged. For other reasons he went on a keto diet for four months, lost 40 pounds, then continued to eat healthy. His iron problem went away.
Interesting. Did check 23andme results and all neg for this. Checked as 3x's in last 2 yrs had slightly high iron, but ferritin ~34,45.. Confusing, but have read on B12 that have high labs may not be correct as antibodies can interferre with some analyzers. Need B12 (which needs B2(Se,I) to use iron, so many connections !

does anyone know why I have too much iron my doctor thinks I have this even though I haven't ate red meat in years and she also said i have low folic acid but not anemia?? I thought i had it because I dont eat red meat
Your videos are very helpful really!! Thanks for the effort and all But can you please do a video on the pharmacology of Anti-biotics and anti-fungal? It'd really help
I just saw a correlation on another RU-vid video that over time as your body takes out more iron. It just accumulates in the body and thus overall you have a shorter lifespan How do you... A. Remove iron that has gotten into the organs. That has accumulated acutely over the past 20-30 years B How do you minimize the effects of the biochemical reaction of the oxidative reaction that takes place once inside your cells? c. How do you reverse the damage from the oxidative reaction in the organs? (This is assuming small accumulative iron over the 20 years, this is not signifying any disease amok to any point)
thanks for ur video, it makes me get clearly about the hemochromatosis mechanism, hope u upload more videos about the other system, from vietnamese with luv
@@peanutt747 if you have iron overload you don’t need a vitamin c supplement. Vitamin c helps process plant based iron and will increase your iron overload.
just a question, I got a bit lost when you said Hepcidin is released when iron storage is overloading which inhibits ferroportin. But if ferroportin is inhibited, does that mean iron will continue to build up in storage as ferritin instead of being released even though storage levels are high? Might be a silly question but I'm just a bit lost. Can someone please explain
Your question is several months old, so forgive me if you have already figured this out… You have ferroportin exactly backwards. If ferroportin is active, it is bringing in new iron from the diet. If it is inhibited by hepcidin, this will slow or stop absorption of new iron from the diet, thereby dropping iron concentration in blood serum and eventual uptake by the liver. With no new iron coming in, stores will be used to make new RBC’s, drawing down overall supply and less production of hepcidin allowing a new iron to be absorbed from the diet, and the cycle repeats.
