Medical Forum / General / Nutrition / September 2004Too much grape juice could cause iron anemia
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2002/12/021213062321.htm "Too Much Grape Juice Could Cause Iron Deficiency The same antioxidant compounds in dark grape juice that are noted for their health benefits in fighting heart disease may have a downside, according to new research in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. In cell studies, scientists with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Cornell University found that polyphenols in purple (also called red) grape juice can inhibit the uptake of iron, which could increase the risk of iron-deficiency anemia." >Subject: Too much grape juice could cause iron anemia >From: markd@toad-net.com [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > (also called red) grape juice can inhibit the uptake of iron, which > could increase the risk of iron-deficiency anemia."

What, in a nutshell, was the argument again ? >I've rather lost the gist > of the "iron hypothesis". > > What, in a nutshell, was the argument again ? In my personal nutshell, it means that I can take a glass of grape juice with my favourite high iron dishes like liver or spinach, and not build up too much iron, which is so bad for my cardio vascular system.
