Iron High in Liver

My husband has been diagnosed with too much iron in the liver and also a fatty liver. This all was decided with major blood work and an ultrasound after his liver enzymes were elevated during a routine blood test. He is on an ace inhibitor which is called Altace for high blood pressure. Dr. told him that this problem is not from the meds!!! He never had this before the meds. They have just told him to come back in 4 months and to also loose some weight and not drink alcohol. I have done a lot of reading and such and know that he needs to do something or this high iron can need to cirrhosis. He has made some lifestyle changes and I have purchased Colostrum Plus which has the IP-6 in it. I was told that these 2 products can possibly remove excess iron from the body. I also purchased the Milk Thistle time release. He is not big on taking too many supplements so I would appreciate any recommendations for this problem. Am I going in the right direction and is there something else I can mention for him to do. Thank you. -Kris

According to Nutritionist Gary Null, in his book The Complete Guide to Health and nutrition, Vitamins C, and E, B-Complex, and zinc all can help lower iron levels, and ,or, protect against the harmful effects of high iron. Since your husband has HBP it would make sense that he may need more C, and E. And I have never met a man that wasn't in need of extra zinc (prostrate health). If he has a long history of stress it is likely he is low on B-Complex as well. For the fatty liver, I use Lecithin at 9 per day, along with some Bowel Detox. -Valerie Greguire
