A member asked:
How can i increase my ferritin levels if my iron bloodwork is normal? my iron, iron binding capacity, and iron percent saturation are within range?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There is no reason to increase your ferritin level. Ferritin is pro-inflammatory and a normal level, even a low normal level is fine. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
