Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Individuals with hemochromatosis have an excessive build-up of iron in their body which can damage organs and tissues. Therefore, it is important to limit iron-rich foods in their diet, such as iron-fortified cereals. Dairy products, fluoridated water, and carbonated beverages do not contain significant amounts of iron and do not need to be limited.
