Anemia refers to the condition when a person doesn’t have an adequate number of red blood cells. The deficiency of RBCs leads to many problems in the body like fatigue, dizziness, and other weaknesses in the body. There are different kinds of deficiencies in a body that come under anemia and they have different levels too. In this blog, Rubina Ratnakar gives some tips that will help in overcoming anemia.
The deficiency is generally due to the lack of iron. If this is the case, then you should increase the intake of iron-rich foods in your body. Eat a lot of green leafy vegetables as they are a rich source of iron.
You need to increase your Vitamin C intake as well. They are important as they will help in fighting all the infections in your body. Oranges and lemons are rich sources of Vitamin C.
Fresh juices can also help you in increasing the level of red blood cells in your body. Pomegranate juice, apple juice, and carrot juice are some juices that are good for our health. They will help you in staying energized all the time.
If you are taking the right food and still face anemia, you need to look at the cause of the problem. Maybe there is something in your body that is leading to the decrease in the number of red blood cells. If you find the cause, you should undergo treatment for that problem.
There are some foods that you may be allergic to. There are also some foods that you should be avoided if you are anemic. They are tea, coffee, whole-grain cereals, and gluten-rich foods.
You need to take care of yourself and avoid any injuries since there will be blood loss that is not good for you.
Make time for activities like Yoga and swimming that will help in relaxing your body and keep your body fit and healthy.
