BLOOD TESTS – IRON

At The Health Dispensary, we are committed to helping you achieve optimal health and well-being. As part of our comprehensive health services in Neath, South Wales, we offer specialised blood testing for iron levels and stores. This test is essential for diagnosing and managing various health conditions related to iron deficiency and overload.

Why Test for Iron Levels?

Iron is a crucial mineral that plays a vital role in the production of haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Maintaining appropriate iron levels is essential for overall health, energy levels, and the proper functioning of your body. Our blood testing service can help detect:

-Iron Deficiency: Low iron levels can lead to anaemia, causing symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.
-Iron Overload: Excessive iron can accumulate in organs, leading to conditions such as haemochromatosis, which can cause severe health issues if left untreated.
