4. Alcohol
Alcohol is a substance that should be avoided in general – even if you find it fun. Many people ignore this advice. However, if you suffer from a condition like hemochromatosis it is even more important that you follow the guidelines.
Alcohol, especially beer, is a source of iron, which can make you feel ill. Organ meats also contain a lot of iron, so they should be avoided.
A variety of medications, especially when combined with those prescribed for your condition, can cause complications. In this situation, it’s better to avoid alcohol.
