CAUSES:- 

                    Anemia is caused by the lack of oxygen in the blood. The main cause is a lack of iron (main component of hemoglobin) in the blood. A shortage of proteins, folic acid, Vitamins B6, B12 & C is other causes of anemia.

The best suggested treatment to help combat anemia is:-

                    A balanced diet, eating healthy foods especially those that contain a high amount of iron. Some recommendations: Lentil soup, spinach, egg yolks, dried prunes, broccoli, turnips and whole grains.
