To avoid anaemia, it's important to eat a healthy diet. Iron (in meat, legumes, fortified cereals) and vitamin C, which helps absorb it, are a great match for healthy RBCs. Vitamin B12 is found in meat and dairy products, folate (B9) in greens and legumes. Supplements can be taken as needed

Nutritional anaemia occurs when children are deficient in iron, folate or vitamin B12 - key substances for the production of healthy red blood cells. According to WHO, haemoglobin below 110 g/l is common in poor regions with food shortages and poor health care🩸

Nutritional anaemia is manifested by fatigue, pallor and shortness of breath. Without timely treatment, it can cause stunted growth, heart problems, behavioural changes and decreased immunity. In severe cases, untreated anaemia can lead to serious consequences, including death.
