Are you the first in your family diagnosed with haemochromatosis?
Just one gene from each parent is enough to inherit it — even if they don’t have it.

On this day in 1827, Beethoven died at 56 from liver cirrhosis from chronic hepatitis B. There is also a theory that he suffered from hereditary haemochromatosis.
Remarkably, lead poisoning from "medical treatments" at the time had also contributed to liver/renal failure.

Are You at Risk of Iron Overload
Haemochromatosis is a genetic condition causing excess iron absorption, leading to serious health issues—often with no symptoms
Early signs: chronic fatigue & joint pain
A simple blood test can detect it! Talk to your GP and visit www.ha.org.au
