The primary marker of iron stores. Low ferritin in the absence of inflammation indicates iron deficiency even when haemoglobin is normal.
Reference range: 30 to 200 ng/mL optimal, above 50 ideal for energy
Circulating iron. Can vary considerably through the day. Single measurement is less informative than ferritin.
Reference range: 9 to 30 umol/L
Measures available transferrin. Rises in iron deficiency (the body upregulates transferrin to capture available iron).
Reference range: 45 to 80 umol/L
The percentage of transferrin actually carrying iron. One of the most functionally useful markers in the panel.
Reference range: 20 to 45% ideal, under 20% indicates deficiency

Patients following practitioner-designed protocols, sharing their outcomes in their own words.
"This was the first time someone showed me what was happening and what to do about it. "
"My ferritin had been low-normal for three years. The protocol made a real difference within six weeks."
"Someone finally put all the pieces together. Clear, specific and actually useful."
