    Iron toxicity from a patient that literally just took too many supplements.

    You know how they say everybody has about a nail’s worth of iron in their body?

    It turns out that you definitely don’t want a pound of it in your stomach.

    Also turns out that a lot of other metals are the same kind of thing. Not gold though, it’s generally not chemically active, so eat all the gold you want.
