I will try the curcumin. Would other anti inflammatory nutrients work as well, like boswellia, biotin, omega 3’s, etc.?

I have Secondary hemochromatosis and several studies in mouse models of HH have shown that increasing hepcidin levels can ameliorate the iron overload.

With hemochromatosis we have to avoid iron supplements.
So in your article, stating that oral iron supplements may increases hepcidin levels, needs to be avoided.
Apart from exercise, are there any other options left to increase hepcidin?

I would love to hear it.

Thanks again.
