∙ 13y agoRecently I read chapter 8 (The Modern Iron Age) - about iron (Fe) in
the body in Drs. Eades : Protein Power Lifeplan - very interesting
research. E.g.
1. Our blood has a defense mechanism - a first line of defense against
parasites! It will keep Fe hidden from parasites/microbes (via a
mechanism using transferrin and proteins) - because parasites cannot
exist without Fe. There is lots of Fe in the body, even if blood-Fe
seems low.
& much more
