He can. Wood is his only weakness.
Regardless, even if you want to believe that...
Back to my original point, things don't have to be ferromagnetic for Magneto to be able to control them.

It would cause your blood to shunt to various portions of your body, in accordance with the magnet's position (it continuously spins around you.) Moving blood in or out of veins, arteries, organs, bone marrow, etc. when it's not induced by the body's natural homeostasis, is never good. Ever.
You would shut down.

You are wrong, buddy.

No, it wouldn't.You are wrong, buddy.
If all of the iron in your body (remember, in a normal person there is iron in every hemoglobin) responded to the magnetic waves released from an MRI, the bodily response would be quite violent. Unquestionable.
No offense, but being an MRI tech doesn't really mean much in this theoretical discussion. Considering it's impossible, I doubt very highly that you've ever seen the iron in someone's body respond to the magnetic field the machine produces.
Personally I have seen metal (a pen) react violently when the MRI was turned on. If the iron in your body responded the same way, it would cause severe damage.

What instance are you referring to?
I didn't know before today that blood iron was in no way magnetic. And people on KMC have been equally unaware (apparently with a few exceptions). It's comics.

I'm an MRI tech while I work on my masters in Biomedical engineering, brah.
Originally posted by King Kandyhe's done it on panel even, back in the 90's when that stupid mutant maggot was given a origin issue.
Magneto can control things even when they are not ferromagnetic... I surmise that he could manipulate blood, but doesn't have any particularly special power over it vs other parts of the body.
magneto found him wandering the desert and tore the mercenaries that were about to kill him to shreds with ease, just because he feels that way about mutants, no matter how lame they are.
