Blood Hb level: too low or too high hemoglobin level
-
Blood Hb level too low or hemoglobin level too high? And what are the normal values of Hb? Hemoglobin or blood dye is found in red blood cells and is the pigment that makes the blood red. Hemoglobin also carries oxygen from the lungs to cells in the body. Each red blood cell contains more than 600 million hemoglobin molecules. The core of the hemoglobin molecule contains iron molecules. Iron plays a role in binding the oxygen. Iron is an essential mineral found in our diet. Too low a hemoglobin (Hb) level indicates anemia. In men, anemia occurs when the hemoglobin level is lower than 8.5 and in women 7.5.
