Since we started the Designs for Health podcast, I wanted to do an episode on hemochromatosis, having discovered that I am heterozygous for the HFE gene in my early 20s. I was told back then by a hematologist at Kaiser that it was nothing to worry about until I'm in menopause. I can tell you that even back then, I was NOT okay with that answer! While iron deficiency is definitely a concern, iron overload is problematic as well! It was an honor interviewing Dr. Christy Sutton all about iron overload and hemochromatosis in this 2-part episode. You can listen to it on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, watch it at the link below or on YouTube, plus we have the full transcript available! Here are some highlights: [02:57] Christy’s deep interest in hemochromatosis led her to write The Iron Curse [05:25] Christy's husband’s diagnosis including a false positive for autoimmune hepatitis and Cushing’s Syndrome [11:11] the difference an early hemochromatosis diagnosis could have made [14:29] the scientific differentiators of hemochromatosis from iron overload. [16:10] the myth of hereditary hemochromatosis and the misuse of the term ‘carrier’ [24:24] genetic advantages of absorbing too much iron [30:19] acute and long-term symptoms and dangers of iron overload [35:15] ways that excess iron presents itself throughout the body [37:52] the negative impact of undiagnosed hemochromatosis at every stage of life [41:18] my personal story and diagnosis with hemochromatosis. [45:12] lab markers and testing levels that aid in diagnosing hemochromatosis
In this first episode of our two-part series, we sit down with Dr. Christy Sutton, a chiropractor specializing in epigenetics and functional medicine, to explore the critical issue of Iron Overload and Hemochromatosis—a frequently underdiagnosed and misunderstood genetic disorder that can have serious, long-term health consequences. Iron overload is often overlooked in clinical practice, yet it plays a significant role in chronic disease development. Dr. Sutton shares her insights on: • The dangers and symptoms of iron overload and hemochromatosis • The importance of genetic testing and environmental factors in diagnosis and treatment • Real-world examples, including her own experience helping her husband navigate an iron overload diagnosis, as well as my personal journey with hemochromatosis 🎧 Listen to the full episode here: https://brnw.ch/21wOBqv #FunctionalMedicine #GeneticTesting #PatientCare #ChronicDisease
