Anemia or anemia in the body is a major problem today which is a form of malnutrition. There is a deficiency of red blood cells in the blood, that is, hemoglobin. Anemia is generally considered to be less than 12 grams per dl in women, 11 grams per dl in pregnant women, and less than 13 grams per dl in men. Hemoglobins are essential for the transport of oxygen in the body. The disorder caused by its deficiency is called anemia. Hemoglobin is mainly made up of iron and protein. Lack of iron, its main ingredient, also reduces the formation of red blood cells in the body. Sometimes it also kills the life of the patient. To avoid this, the patient is advised to eat iron rich nutrients.
In India, anemia is seen more commonly among women and adolescents. According to the National Family Health Survey-4 (NFHS-4), 53 percent women and 23 percent men in the age group of 15 to 49 have been found anemic. According to the survey, 47 percent of women and adolescents aged 15 to 49 in Chhattisgarh suffer from anemia. This shows that about half of the women suffer from anemia. Similarly, anemia has been found in 41.6 percent of young children aged 6 to 59 months. According to the national survey, the rate of anemia has been observed in children up to 24 months.
