[QUOTE="Vince, post: 155468, member: 843"] Ferritin level in blood is an index of body iron stores. Ferritin is elevated in iron overload. A research group looked at The Copenhagen City Heart Study’s data on almost 9,000 people. They found that “stepwise increasing concentrations of ferritin were associated with a stepwise increased risk of premature death overall.”People with a ferritin level of greater than 600 µg/l had a median survival age of 55. Those with a ferritin level of 400 to 599 µg/l lived a median of 72 years; at 200 to 399 µg/l, 76 years and less than 200 µg/l, 79 years.
