Default cast iron skillets???

I was once told by an older physician that before the 1960's, he rarely, if
ever saw anaemia in women because 'back then' people used cast iron daily.
In the late 50's and onward there was a major shift to stainless steel,
aluminum, and Teflon... Then he started seeing a very noticeable increase in
anaemic women...
