About 67 percent of body iron is present as hemoglobin and myoglobin. Hemoglobin, which is present in red blood cells, is essential for transferring oxygen from the lungs, via the blood, to the tissues; myoglobin is present in muscle cells and accepts, stores, transports and releases oxygen in the muscles. About six percent of body iron is used as a component of certain proteins (it forms part of the cytochromes, which are essential for respiration and energy metabolism), and as a component of certain enzymes it is involved in the synthesis of collagen and various neurotransmitters. In addition, iron is needed for proper immune function. About 25 percent of the iron in the body is stored as ferritin, which is found in cells and circulates in the blood. The average adult male has about 1,000 mg of stored iron (enough for about three years), whereas women on average have only about 300 mg (enough for about six months). When iron intake is chronically low, stores can eventually become depleted, decreasing hemoglobin levels.
