I would say too much of any nutrient is bad.

If your well water is high in iron like mine, it canbe very expensive to remove.

Would be easier to use city if you have or buy some distilled or drinking water from walmart or the grocery store.

always let the water sit at least 24 hours just in case it has chlorine in it

I would rather have well water than city water. If you have to much iron in your water why couldn't you stir it with a magnet? Why is it you will never see a rusty magnet?

I have a heavy concentration of iron in my water, and no a magnet will not remove it.

You need to use a special filter system just to remove

Even if they removed all the iron I would not drink it, you just don't know what is in there.

Would a reverse osmosis system help? Works wonders for city tap.

just make sure you have a water softner, i have very hard water and have not had any related problems with it

I believe it can, but check what type of system you have and see if has the capability
