In the case of hemochromatosis, it is believed that a single individual in Europe, 60 to 70 generations ago, was the sole origin of most of the hemochromatosis seen in the world today.
Hemochromatosis is the abnormal rate of iron metabolism in the blood. Normally, your body only absorbs 10% of the iron contained in the foods they eat. With hemochromatosis, your body absorbs up to 30% of iron and eventually, it absorbs and preserves between 5-20 times more iron than your body needs.aving too much iron in the body is not good for the health. Our body has no natural way of eliminating excess iron, it is stored in body tissue and organs, particularly in the heart, liver, pancreas, skin and joints. Without treatment, hemochromatosis leads to organ failure, or worse, death.
