It is very good for body function. With its help, nutrients and hormones are supplied to every part of the body and waste material keeps coming out of the body. Blood also does the work of controlling the pH and temperature of the body. Hemoglobin is found in RBCs of blood. This is very important. Hemoglobin takes oxygen from the lungs and transports it to every organ. It is considered necessary for an adult human being to have 4 to 5 liters of blood in his body.
What does hemoglobin do?
According to health experts, the main function of hemoglobin is to deliver oxygen to every tissue of the body. Hemoglobin keeps releasing oxygen by forming a bond with it. If there is more or less oxygen in any part of the body, then hemoglobin balances it. Hemoglobin transports carbon dioxide from cells to the lungs.

The RBC in a man’s body should contain 13.2-16.6 grams of hemoglobin per deciliter.
The RBC in a woman’s body should contain 11.6-15.0 grams of hemoglobin per deciliter.
