Anaemia occurs due to loss of iron and whose iron intake is not adequate. I have always been anaemic and my haemoglobin count not more than 9. Everyone is aware about dark green leafy vegetables like spinach,fenugreek as iron rich foods. However I found the following ingredients more helpful than the leafy vegetables when it come to treating anaemia. I have now managed to bring my count to 11. Yay !
Kitchen ingredient remedy
- Jaggery – Jaggery helps in improving haemoglobin count. Have a small piece of Jaggery everyday with your meal or after meal as dessert.
