Upper limit for heme iron

The daily upper limit for iron is 45mg. Heme iron is better absorbed. Some say, that you absorb 5-10x more heme iron than non heme iron. So hypothetically, if all the iron in my diet comes from heme iron, does the upper limit stay the same or should I aim for a much lower iron intake to not risk iron overload?
