Hemoglobin is the protein contained within red blood cells which binds O2 in the lungs and releases it when the cell reaches the capillaries. Hemoglobin is extremely important for maintaining health, and indeed a lack of hemoglobin is more commonly a problem than too high hemoglobin, as the body does not receive enough oxygen from the air you breathe.How hazardous hemoglobin shots are depends on what exactly you are referring to.

Tampering with something as vital as hemoglobin in particular can be dangerous, and you should not take any such product without consulting a physician.


What is more dangerous CO or CO2?

Carbon monoxide binds very strongly to the iron atoms in hemoglobin, the principal oxygen-carrying compound in blood. The affinity between CO and hemoglobin is 200 times stronger than the affinity between hemoglobin and oxygen. When CO binds to the hemoglobin it cannot be released nearly as readily as oxygen would be. The preferential binding of carbon monoxide to heme iron is the main reason for carbon


Hemoglobin level is 6.7 how dangerous is this?

Well it is certainly not good! Normal hemoglobin values range from 12-16 for females and from 14-18 for males. My husband just had a gastrointestinal bleed, and when his hemoglobin level dipped below 9, they transfused him. His original level upon admittance was 5.8, and he had 8 units of blood before they could get him up above the "9" that they required before they would let him go home. So...you need some iron! I'd def. call the doc about this one...not anything to play around with.
