Everything was pretty normal with testing other than low iron. My doc even said that my liver and kidneys were super healthy.
I have never cooked with cast iron myself but I used to have to take iron supplements because I was so anemic (from the monthly blood loss) but I was always concerned if the supplements might have some kind of negative effect on my system. There is so much info online. Here is some warning info about cast iron but still it is something to consider--and maybe discuss with your doctor.
