Do you feel weakness, dizziness with the lack of energy? Do you have pale/grayish skin and dull and haggard look? These are the main symptoms of anemia. Other symptoms include poor memory, ringing in the ears, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath on exertion, slow healing of wounds, and mental confusion.
What is Anemia?
Anemia is characterized by a deficiency of red blood cells and /or hemoglobin. In people with bloodlessness, the body makes too few red blood cells, loses too many of them, or destroys them before they are replaced. Hemoglobin is the main part of red blood cells. It is responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Anemia is not a single disease. It is an indication that something is wrong.
Different kinds of anemia
There three kinds of Anemia
- Iron deficiency bloodlessness which is caused by blood loss
- Megaloblastic anemia which is caused by abnormally large red blood cells.
- Anemia of chronic disease which is caused by the destruction of red blood cells.
Iron deficiency anemia
Iron deficiency bloodlessness is the result of wrong diets, massive loss of blood due to injury, bleeding piles, and heavy menstruation. Women may also lose iron because of increased blood supply during pregnancy.
Megaloblastic anemia
Megaloblastic bloodlessness most often occurs because of deficiency of folic acid, vitamin B12, or both as a result of poor diet sometimes coupled with alcoholism. Megaloblastic anemia is characterized by red blood cells that are larger than normal. Because the cells are too large, they may not be able to exit the bone marrow to enter the bloodstream and deliver oxygen.
Anemia of chronic disease
Anemia of chronic disease is a condition that can be associated with many chronic illnesses and these illnesses stimulate the immune system to produce substances that interfere with the transport of iron and the production of red blood cells.
Although the risk of bloodlessness tends to decline with age, it is still a common medical concern, in particular among those who have a chronic disease that causes inflammation or bleeding.

Diet

Excess iron may increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers, so it is important for your doctor to monitor your anemia and to discontinue iron supplements once your iron levels return to normal. Excessive body levels of iron can result in poisoning.
