Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1) HbA1c value measured during the observation period exceeded 6.5 2) Persons who do not take iron preparations or supplements or drugs intended to take iron (meaning iron 10 mg / day or heme iron more than 100 mg/day) 3) A person who is judged by the doctor to have high blood pressure based on the blood pressure measured during the observation period.
