Should I be concerned about high levels of transferrin saturation and ferritin?

In the meantime, I’m already stopping my nutritional supplements.

Answer

There is indeed a somewhat increased risk of death (often from other conditions such as diabetes and cirrhosis), but this is limited. Stopping supplements and monitoring the transferrin through the GP seems advisable.
