Hi Andrea,
High iron can be lowered by taking the supplement IP6. A woman with Hep B takes it for this and has her blood checked regularly and finds it to be effective. Hemochromotosis is also controlled by donating blood, if you are able to do that, or you can have it withdrawn with a doctor's prescription at a blood center of your local hospital. Maybe call ahead to check first. Best wishes.
