Iron binding capacity

TIBC measures your blood’s total capacity to bind and carry iron—it’s like seeing how many “seats” are available for iron transport. High TIBC usually means you’re low on iron (more open seats), while low TIBC may suggest your system is overloaded or under stress from inflammation. It’s most useful alongside iron saturation and ferritin for a full picture.
