Multi vit question

This may sound a little nieve, but a co-worker who also trains mentioned that men retain iron more than women and to take a Multi w/o iron. I never gave it a though, and the more I thought about the more I questioned it. Is there any truth to this or is he just blowing smoke? If there is truth to it, what are the dangers/harm?



Where there is smoke, there is not enough lubrication!

See "Hemachromatosis", the statement is only partially true...iron does accumulate in the blood and organs of some men!

DP - OK, I'll bite. Are you refering to look this up on the internet? I just looked in the search and there is nothing about it. Sorry if this seems stupid.

OK, so having hypothyroidism and having annual blood checks and having nothing said by my Dr. would you suggest a multi w/o iron. I think I'd like to switch.

Depends on your blood levels of iron, and how much you get in your diet!

You can pobably get away with 5-15mgs of iron!

Thanks DP, thanks for the information. I'll do more research in the morning, time to crash. I'll also call my Dr. on monday and see what my blood iron levels are. Thanks again!
