The following is what effects different amounts of iron would have on a normal person.
Iron is toxic to the GI, cardiovascular, and central nervous systems. Specific mechanisms are unclear, but excess free iron is inserted into enzymatic processes and interferes with oxidative phosphorylation, producing metabolic acidosis. Iron also catalyzes free radical formation, acts as an oxidizer, and, when plasma protein binding is saturated, combines with water to form iron hydroxide and free H+ ions, compounding the metabolic acidosis. Coagulopathy may appear early because of interference with the coagulation cascade and later because of liver injury. Up to 20 mg/kg of elemental iron is not toxic; 20 to 60 mg/kg is mildly to moderately toxic, and > 60 mg/kg can cause severe symptoms and morbidity.(morbidity is the pleasant term for death)
