Abstract in brief

Excess iron, especially heme iron, is linked to a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes according to this review of multiple studies.
The analysis found that higher body iron stores, measured by ferritin and other markers, also correlate with increased diabetes risk.
However, dietary intake of total iron, nonheme iron, or iron supplements does not appear to significantly influence the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.]
