Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency globally, thought to affect at least 30% of the world's population. Often going undetected, iron deficiency can cause symptoms such as fatigue, physical weakness, a pale complexion, cognitive problems, and immune dysfunction.
The Iron Status Profile is a comprehensive evaluation of the amount and storage of iron in your body. Iron is an essential mineral used to produce haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen around your body.
The panel includes measurements of Iron, Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC), Ferritin, and Transferrin Saturation. Ferritin is a protein that stores iron, and its level in your blood gives a good indication of the amount of iron stored in your body. TIBC measures the total capacity of your blood to bind and transport iron, while Transferrin Saturation provides insight into the proportion of the iron transport protein, transferrin, that is actually carrying iron.
By regularly monitoring these markers, you can detect and address imbalances early, ensuring optimal vitality, physical and mental performance, and prolong healthspan.
