Anemia can be temporary or long term, and it can
range from mild to severe. anemia can be a sign of
serious illnesses. Treatments for anemia range from
taking supplements to undergoing medical
procedures. You may be able to prevent some types
of anemia by eating a healthy, varied diet.

complications of Left untreated, anemia can cause numerous explained.
Anemia complications, such as:

Severe fatigue: When anemia is severe enough,

you may be so tired that you can't complete
everyday tasks. You may be too exhausted to work
or play.

Heart problems: Anemia can lead to a rapid or

irregular heartbeat - an arrhythmia. Your heart must
pump more blood to compensate for the lack of

oxygen in the blood when you're anemic. This can

even lead to congestive heart failure.

Death: Some inherited anemias, such as sickle cell

anemia, can be serious and lead to life-threatening
complications. Losing a lot of blood quickly results
in acute, severe anemia and can be fatal.

Vitamin C: Foods containing vitamin C, such as

citrus fruits, melons and berries, help increase iron
absorption. Consider genetic counseling if you have
a family history of anemia.

If you have a family history of an inherited anemia,

such as sickle cell anemia, talk to your doctor and
possibly a genetic counselor about your risk and
what risks you may pass on to your children.

nutrients, including:

 Iron:
Iron-rich foods include beef and other meats, beans,
lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy
vegetables and dried fruit.

 Folate:
This nutrient, and its synthetic form, folic acid, can
be found in citrus fruits and juices, bananas, dark
green leafy vegetables, legumes and fortified
breads, cereals and pasta.

 Vitamin B-12:
This vitamin is found naturally in meat and dairy
products. It's also added to some cereals and soy
products, such as soy milk.

you and your situation. Your treatment may include:
 Dietary changes
 Lifestyle changes

Dietary changes: An anemia diet is a meal plan that

contains iron -rich food source and foods that aid
the absorption of iron. It may also include iron
supplements.
Sr. Contributory Time Content Matter Teaching- A.V. Aids Evaluation

Iron supplements should be taken under a doctor’s

supervision because the risk of toxicity in the case
of high supplemental doses of iron is significant.

FOODS THAT ARE RICH IN IRON:

There are two types of iron in food sources. Heme

iron is found in animal products and non-heme iron
is found in plant foods.

 Heme Iron Foods: These are the foods that

contain the ‘heme iron’ which is present in
the animal products. Examples of foods that
are rich in heme iron are given as follows.
 Chicken liver
 Beef liver
 shellfish and fish
 eggs

 Non-Heme Iron Foods: These are the foods

that contain the ‘non-heme iron’ which is
present in the plant products as well as in
milk, meat and eggs. Examples of foods that
are rich in nonheme iron are given as
follows:
 Green leafy vegetables
 Enriched breakfast
 Grains
 Pumpkin seeds

FOODS THAT BOOST IRON ABSORPTION

Food rich in vitamin C and citric acid such as

oranges o Fruits like cantaloupes, strawberries, and
grapefruits o Vegetables like broccoli, tomato,
brussels sprouts, and red and green peppers
 Beef
 Poultry
 Salmon and some other kinds of fish

DIET IN ANEMIA:

A diet rich in iron helps in increasing the

hemoglobin levels. It is seen that iron from non-veg
sources (heme-iron) is more readily absorbed than
iron from vegetarian sources (non-heme iron).
The addition of vitamin C to the diet helps in the
absorption of iron and hence squeezing some lime
juice on your salads/food and eating or drinking
foods rich in vitamin C along with your meals
would facilitate iron absorption.
Avoid drinking tea with your meals as the tannins
present in the tea can interfere with the absorption
of iron from the meal.
