Hemochromatosis is a genetic disease with a high incidence (1 in 250 people) that is passed from parents to children through the transmission of a defective gene (HFE gene). In these individuals, the intestine absorbs an excessive amount of iron from the food they eat. This excess accumulates in the tissues, joints, liver, pancreas, kidneys, thyroid, and heart, and this accumulation causes lesions with consequent alterations in the functions of the respective organs.
