Bonusan blood value check iron

A test has been specially compiled by Bonusan that provides quick insight into iron levels. When iron levels in the blood are too low, you may suffer from fatigue, difficulty concentrating, dizziness, palpitations and shortness of breath. You may feel sluggish and lifeless and be more susceptible to infections. Iron is very important for normal function of the cells and tissues in our body. For example, it helps release energy from food and therefore helps with fatigue and tiredness. In addition, iron supports the formation of red blood cells. These are important for normal oxygen transport in the body. In addition, iron is important for maintaining normal memory, concentration and learning ability. Finally, it provides support for the immune system.

Blood is tested for:

• Iron
• Blood count small including hemoglobin (Hb)
• Ferritin
• Transferrin
• Transferrin saturation (TIJBC)

A serum and an EDTA tube are required for this examination.
