Summary: What Every Medical Professional (and patient) show know
Review: I am so very pleased to recommend this book. The Iron Disorders Institute - and Dr. Weinberg, have "done it again". While the book is geared towards medical professionals, I find it quite understandable as a layperson whose family is affected by hemochromatosis/iron overload. "Exposing The Hidden Dangers of Iron" takes up where "Guide to Hemochromatosis" lets off.

Especially of interest to me is the in-depth education on how iron specifically effects each system of the body. The extensive information given on diagnosis and treatment is invaluable. The graphics are incredible.

Dr. Weinberg is a leading expert in infectious disease and cancer. He is well known for his work which focuses on prevention of chronic disease by reducing iron levels by reducing intake of iron in diet and discontinuing contributive factors such as tobacco use and alcohol. His more than fifty years work in the field of iron's relationship to cancer has earned him prestige and recognition worldwide. He is a pioneer in the field of iron studies, and has provided us with more than 350 articles and books devoted to iron. I have had the honor of hearing Dr. Weinberg speak in person numerous times, and have never failed to walk away richer for the experience. My expectations have not been disappointed with this excellent publication.
