Anaemia is a prevalent health concern, especially among women in developing countries. At The Yoga Institute, during our regular Health camps, we have co me across many patients who have low haemoglobin levels, commonly displaying symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and paleness. In the health camps, we educate and offer solutions to such patients.
The foods we consume play a pivotal role in managing anaemia. While there are certain foods beneficial for boosting haemoglobin levels, it's equally essential to be aware of anaemia foods to avoid. This knowledge empowers patients to make informed dietary choices, aiding in their journey towards better health.
When dealing with anaemia, it's essential to be cautious not just about what you eat but also about certain foods that can make the condition worse or hinder the absorption of iron.
Being mindful of these dietary factors can help individuals better manage their anaemia and improve their overall health.
A simple yet effective solution we advocate for managing anaemia is the consumption of Hibiscus Tea. Hibiscus petals are a rich source of iron and help in haemoglobin production.
Hibiscus Tea Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 cup water
2 hibiscus flower petals
Lemon juice for flavor
Method:
Boil the hibiscus flower petals in water until it reduces by half.
Strain the mixture.
Add a dash of lemon juice for taste.
The vitamin C present in the petals enhances iron absorption, fortifying our blood. Lemon juice further amplifies this effect, offering antioxidants that shield our blood cells.
For those having low haemoglobin levels, making Hibiscus Tea a part of your morning routine can work wonders. Consume it on an empty stomach for 15 to 30 days and witness the transformative power of nature.
By knowing which anaemia foods to avoid and which foods to include, you will be able to maintain optimal iron levels and overcome anaemia. It's imperative to educate ourselves and others, by attending health camps to create a community where everyone can thrive.
