especially in children. Overuse of supplements can develop into an accumulation of iron in your body and result in toxic effects to your digestive tract, liver, heart and brain. Iron overdose symptoms vary depending on the amount ingested, but iron overload is a medical...
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, regulated form of cell death characterized by iron overload and lipid peroxidation as key metabolic features [101]. Lipid peroxidation is a highly reactive molecule that destroys cellular components, including lipids, proteins, and DNA, resulting in cell death [102...
Chelation is indicated in the treatment of metal poisoning and metal-storage diseases, in particular Wilson disease, in blood transfusion iron overload as in thalassemia and sickle-cell anemia, in hemochromatosis, and to aid the elimination of metallic radionuclides from the body. The pharmacology an...
Individuals affected with hereditary hemochromatosis may have no symptoms or signs (and have normal longevity), or they can have severe symptoms and signs of iron overload that include sexual dysfunction, heart failure, joint pains, cirrhosis of the liver, diabetes, fatigue, and darkening of the ...

5Signs, Symptoms, and Consequences of Iron Overload The classic symptom of iron overload isskin hyperpigmentation(to a bronze or grey color), due to deposits of iron and melanin complexes in the skin. Theliver, as a primary source of iron storage, is particularly susceptible to iron overload...
A meta-analysis showed a significantly higher risk of T2D for a TSAT ≥ 50%, which is above the normal range (20–50%) and thus suggestive of iron overload [54]. Low reliability of iron biomarkers and pitfalls of cross-sectional design In our study all iron biomarkers (serum Iron...
