I got all my 27 weeks blood tests back and my Ferritin Level was only 7. Which from what I gather is very low!

I know that ferritin is what stores the iron rather then the actually iron its self so to speak. I Desperately don't want to go on iron tablet and would like to change my diet.

The natropath said that ferritin levels do not mean I am anemic just that my storage level are low.

Can anyone else explain this to me (or had similar experience?)and do you think that its worthwhile trying to ague with my OBS to let me change my diet and see how we go, say do a re-test in 3 weeks??
