What foods are recommended for someone with hemochromatosis?

What you like: If you are monitoring your serum ferritin and getting phlebotomy as needed, go ahead and enjoy that big, juicy, iron-rich steak. If you have one of the rare hemochromatosis variants for which phlebotomy is futile, then you need to get with a specialist dietician.
