"...Finally, the interplay between iron and copper in oxidative stress, diabetes, and its complications deserves greater attention.

This looks like a very well researched and thought out paper and I would be gratefull of your opinion.

The paper makes me wonder about chelation of other metals, like lead, mercury etc and the effect that would have on longevity?
