Check out this article from Imperial College London on the importance of having balanced iron levels in your diet.👇

The findings show that while iron is valuable to the body to make red blood cells, it can be a double-edged sword. Too little iron can cause fatigue and an impaired immune system, while too much iron can cause liver failure and even be fatal.

Too much iron often comes from consuming red meats regularly. So, if you want to reduce the iron levels in your diet, limiting red meat consumption would be a great place to start. If you need to raise iron levels in your diet without consuming red meat, consider legumes, nuts, beans, and fish.

This article by Well+Good cites a study by the Copenhagen City Heart Study, which found tennis, badminton, and soccer to be the sports that best improve your lifespan - but not for the reasons you might think.
