i just need to know the maximum amount of milligrams i'm alloud to have each day, i'm 170 pounds if that matters.This is just so i don't overdose
Answer:
Your weight is not so much an issue when choosing the safe amount of iron to take in daily, it is more of a question of your age. You are male correct? In that case if you are 14 to 18 years of age 11 mg would be sufficient, 19 years of age and up 8 mg is sufficient. It is suggested that you stay within a healthy range of the rda possible +/- 1-2 mg because to much iron can lead to toxicity and possible heart attack, to little complicates your bodies ability to carry essential O2 to body tissues.
i think its 8-10 mg's per day for men 19 and over
Age ---- male (mg/day) / female(mg/day)0 to 6 months ---- 0.27 / 0.277 to 12 months ---- 11 / 111 to 3 years ---- 7 / 74 to 8 years ---- 10 / 109 to 13 years ---- 8 / 814 to 18 years ---- 11 / 1519 to 50 years ---- 8 / 1851+ years ---- 8 / 8For pregnent woman they need 27 mg/day and feeding mothers 10 mg/day.
