The lack of iron is called iron deficiency. Please check this web site http://sickle.bwh.harvard.edu/fe-def.html. The excess of iron is called hemochromatosis. Please check this website http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/hemochromatosis/index.htm. Hope the info will help.

I don't know about in excess, but a lack of iron causes anemia, which can make you not get hungry, you'll be very tired and it makes your hair look like crap.

If you have it in excess, you teeth will go darker.
If you lack iron, you'll feel weak and tired all the time.
If you go on iron supplements, you'll be constipated!
