[QUOTE="BJE, post: 202457, member: 13968"] Iron absorption is a funny thing. I have the gene for hemochromatosis so my iron is always high. I have donated blood for years in order to keep my ferritin low, under 50. I once got my ferritin down to 7 so I decreased my donation frequently. However if I don’t donate frequently enough I get high hematocrit. It’s a balancing act. I’ve never had any symptoms from low ferritin because my blood iron level is always high. At any given time a blood test will show my iron to be over the top of the range and my percent saturation over 100%. I avoid iron when possible. I have given blood 49 times. [/QUOTE]
