Treatment and symptoms of Ferritin 19 ng/mL | Diet for low Ferritin level 19 ng/mL

Low Ferritin level of 19 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal ferritin level of 19 reflects your body's iron stores. An abnormal ferritin level of 19 may suggest iron overload conditions like hemochromatosis, or it may rise in inflammation, chronic disease, or liver disorders. Interpreting ferritin alongside other iron markers provides a clearer picture of your iron status and helps detect conditions such as anemia or iron deficiency. There are several treatment options, but the first and most important step is to change your diet immediately.
