No.
(Although some people might consider the treatment venesection - giving blood - to be a natural treatment.

Yes the most and (one of the) oldest treatment (in medicine) is giving blood in a clinic (better specialised in like haematology) so they can do check your iron/ferritin-level well doing that.

Tumeric has been known to help and a low iron diet

Again this is debated by people who have this, but for me the most natural treatment (or at least something that slows down my absorption of iron) is reducing my consumption of iron-heavy foods (such as red meats) as well as things that can increase iron absorption (such as vitamin C and alcohol). Just my personal experience, but when I cut those things out of my diet, it helped my ferritin levels drop very quickly.
