I just got blood work back. my vitamin d and folic acid is low. my unsaturated ibc is high at 352. what does this mean? from what i find online it could mean low iron??

Tests: Your UIBC is a measure of your unsaturated iron binding capacity. Range for this test is 120 – 470 µg/dL. In conjunction with a serum Iron the test is valuable. Vitamin D levels effect calcium levels and other body processes. Supplemental vitamin D may help. Low folate levels can be associated with anemia too, but that is a macrocytic or big blood cell anemia where as iron deficiency is small
