Empowering People with Hemochromatosis
Hello!
My name is Dr. Eric Lewis, ND, and I am here to help you find answers and restore health in hemochromatosis.
As a Naturopathic Doctor (ND) with a genetic predisposition for the condition of iron overload, my aim is to help you learn the safest and most effective diet and supplement strategies to help support your health.
Many people have contacted me over the years, looking for a health professional to help them navigate the world of diet, supplements, and overall health when dealing with iron overload.
I’ve realized there is a lack of clear information out there to help empower people with iron overload to take charge and to learn how to live a healthier life with hemochromatosis.
Some of you have expressed frustration that, while your current healthcare team may know a lot about blood tests and phlebotomy, they don’t seem to have the level of knowledge, specialty, and understanding about nutrition and other whole-person strategies that you are seeking.
I may be able to help fill in the gaps and provide this missing component to your healthcare.
Holistic Help for Hemochromatosis
Through years of research, working with patients, and managing my own iron levels, I have developed a specialty and deep understanding of iron overload.
On top of this, my holistic approach to hemochromatosis makes my perspective unique.
I’ve been fortunate to work with many people with all types of iron disorders, and if I’ve learned one thing, it’s that everyone manifests their condition and responds to therapies differently.
If a customized plan from a holistic doctor is what you’re looking for, then please read on to learn more about how I may be able to help.
How I Can Help
Are you trying to be proactive with your health, but find this isn’t the focus of the rest of your healthcare team?
Do you wish there were safe, effective steps you could take for your hemochromatosis, right now, to keep from getting worse and improve your life?
Do you wish there was someone you could talk to whom you could ask all your questions about what to eat, which vitamins to take, and how to understand what’s happening to your body?
That’s where I come in.
I have worked with many individuals from all over the United States, through phone or video chat, providing one-on-one consultations, customized to what each person needs.
These consultations are meant to be a complementary addition to the healthcare you’re already receiving, that “missing piece” you’ve been seeking to help you find answers and restore health.
What I Can't Do For You
These consultations are in no way meant to be a substitute for the care you are currently receiving.
This is an educational service only. I am not a replacement for your current doctor, dietician or nutritionist, or other members of your healthcare team.
I cannot make adjustments to your prescription medications or prescription phlebotomy. I cannot diagnose you with a disease, and I cannot bill your insurance.
Because of the nature of these consultations, please note that anyone suffering from serious, end-stage, or other significant health challenges (such as cancer or organ failure) would not be a good candidate for this service.
At this time, I am also only able to work with people in the United States.
Would You Benefit from a Consultation?
As a doctor specializing in hemochromatosis, my primary goals for my patients include:
Learn About Hemochromatosis
- Do you need help understanding your diagnosis? Most people have never heard of hemochromatosis before and struggle to understand the diagnosis and what it means for their health. Let's unpack it together!
- Do you have unanswered questions? Other members of your healthcare team might not have the time to discuss all the ways iron overload may impact your life. Enjoy an unhurried conversation with me. I want to help you feel heard and empowered and to create an action plan to help you manage your symptoms.
Determine How Nutrition Impacts Iron Overload
- Do you know what to eat when you have hemochromatosis?
- Knowing what to cook and eat is sometimes the most difficult part of learning to live well with hemochromatosis.
- You may ask any and every question you may have about diet and eating during your appointments with me. No question is too big or too small!
Personalized Recommendations
- Would you like someone to put together a plan for you? Get customized recommendations for your unique set of symptoms and health challenges. Many people with iron overload also experience other non-iron-related health challenges too!
- Would you like to discuss which nutrients may best help you? Are you curious to integrate nutritional supplements, but unsure which natural remedies are safe and effective? Do you want to make sure they don't interfere with any of your medications? Understanding the interplay of complex nutrients is an expertise of naturopathic doctors.
I will take the whole picture into account and help you integrate the different parts of your health together with a supplement and dietary plan that puts all the pieces together.

for Iron Overload
Practitioners of naturopathic medicine seek to understand the underlying cause of disease, as opposed to just treating the symptoms.
Therapeutically, naturopathic doctors strive to support the body’s natural and inherent ability to heal itself.
Naturopaths are experts at integrating the science of medicine with the art of holistic healing.
Learn more about naturopathic medicine and consultations with Dr. Eric Lewis by visiting the website of our private practice, Lewis Family Natural Health.
To take the first step, what I would suggest for you is to contact my naturopathic office, and one of our front office assistants will be happy to assist you.
They can give you information on how our practice works and answer any other questions you may have, including cost, as naturopathic medicine is not covered by insurance in the state of North Carolina.
