This can result in elevated serum ferritin, iron deposition in various organs and ultimately end-organ damage, although there is incomplete biochemical and clinical penetrance and variable ...
However, for people with low ferritin levels, which is the stored form of iron in the body, the best option is a specific type of iron supplement that contains ferrous sulfate. Ferrous sulfate is ...
An altered iron status may range in severity from iron depletion (serum ferritin (SF) <35 µg/l, haemoglobin (Hb) >115 g/l, transferrin saturation >16%) to iron deficiency anaemia (SF <12 µg/l, Hb ...
