Iron related question please

[Thywotsit]

I am currently trying to get my iron levels up and they are slowly creeping in the right direction.

However.

My latest bloods show that my TSAT is now too high at 65% (up from 39% two months ago), and ferritin at 70ug/L (up from 65ug/L.)

Is this just something to monitor for now?

It’’s never been high before and I do want to continue to try to raise my ferritin to an optimal level.

I’ve mainly modified my diet to do this.

I was taking iron supplements but reduced these lately due to gastro issues.

Is the result skewed from supplements and dietry intake?

Any thoughts appreciated thanks

Thanks, I can’t seem to find much relevant info online.

I’m starting to learn about iron too. I’ve found a Facebook group called The Iron Protocol quite informative.

Ah, I’ll have a look at that later. Thanks for that.
