Cast iron: "So much iron leaches into the food that in the old days, cooking in cast iron was recommended to treat iron deficiency anemia," says Dr. Blaylock. But too much iron can lead to health problems. "It can precipitate rapid aging of tissues and bring on neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and ALS," he says. "High iron levels can also cause heart failure, stimulate atherosclerosis, trigger diabetes, and increase cancer risk. I wouldn’t cook with iron."

yeah no. iron health supplements are in fact iron shards and shavings. DO you think a fully seasoned iron pan gets scrapped around enough cooking a hamburger patty to generate enough iron to cause an issue?
