Overview
Too much dietary iron may be second only to smoking among the risks for heart disease, according to a recent, revolutionary Finnish study.

And a 1989 study showed that, while a country's average cholesterol reading may not correspond directly to its heart attack rate, its combined cholesterol-and-iron count usually does.
