What does low total bilirubin mean?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Low is OK: In general we all worry about elevated bilirubin. Low bilirubin does not suggest any particular illness, it can be cause by certain medications and vitamin c.

Nothing: Absolutely nothing. The lab reference ranges are set so that 5% of healthy folks fall outside, some at either end. "reference range" doesn't mean "healthy range.".
