There are numerous threads on this board which discuss iron toxicity, and they're all worth exploring.
I read the book, "The Iron Elephant" some time ago and recognized a number of the creeping symptoms of 'age' described by it in myself.
So I started giving blood regularly. -Which isn't very frequently; I have to wait 60 days between blood donor clinics.
Anyway, I just wanted to report on my experiences. -I just today gave blood, and 12 hours later, I have to say... What a difference!
The last time I felt a noticeable decrease in brain fog and an increase in my energy levels. I got used to that. Then today...
The same thing happened. -Perhaps it's psychosomatic. You never know. But I feel pretty great. All skippy and dancey around my living room.
I've given blood now four times, and based on my experiences, I'll continue to do so and I'd recommend it to others.
