    Anaemia

    Not getting enough to eat is a major reason why many people in our country suffer from a deficiency of  iron in their blood, especially girls, women and children. Another reason is the absence of those kinds of items in the diet that  are iron rich. Let us see what is meant by iron deficiency.

    Red blood cells found in blood help in delivering oxygen to different parts of our bodies. When the iron in red blood cells are not sufficient, our blood will not be able to deliver oxygen properly to different organs; hence we start feeling weak, and get tired quite easily. This condition is called‘ iron-deficiency anaemia’.
    Iron-deficiency anaemia is a major health problem in India especially among children, adolescent girls and women.
