SUE: Detoxing, liver cleansing and low iron...

[Guest guest]

The Acu-Cell website has some interesting info on how certain detoxifying

supplements

can have an effect on iron levels:

" When people supplement certain herbs to " cleanse " their liver, they will always

affect

manganese and iron status. For instance, by taking Devil's Claw on an ongoing

basis, they

will eventually raise iron and manganese levels. On the other hand, taking Milk

Thistle will

in time decrease iron and manganese stores... "

It's a great site, full of surprising info about vitamin and mineral

interactions:

Hope this is helpful,

Dear Rich and Dan,

Thanks you so much for your responses regarding Iron levels and glutathione.

I appreciate the time you took to send me some links and info.

Accu-Cell had some interesting info regarding Iron, Folic and and B12 levels.

I have very high RBC folic acid levels, low iron, high serum B12, and mid

methylmalonic acid.

Very strange.

I also found interesting the link between low Iron and Ovarian cysts and that

I have just been diagnosed with a Dermoid in my Ovary. I have a strong feeling

the Dermoid is from low iron and not the iron infusion.

Hmmm I wonder if my recent Bowens on my leg(small squamous cell carcinoma)

could also be from the low Iron, too. Sounds like it especially from the info

Rich sent me regarding oxidative stress, free radicals, and low ferritin/low

Iron.

Thanks again Rich and Dan . . very helpful.

Best wishes,

Sue T
