Anaemia exists in many human beings throughout the world, particularly in poorer countries. The World Health Organization has pointed out that "a great deal of ill-health sapping energy and productiveness in many countries and causing tragedies in child-birth is due to anaemia." Nutritional anaemias are known to be widely prevalent in the Indian sub-continent, and of these, iron deficiency anaemia appears to be the most common.

Abstract


Anaemia exists in many human beings throughout the world, particularly in poorer countries. The World Health Organization has pointed out that "a great deal of ill-health sapping energy and productiveness in many countries and causing tragedies in child-birth is due to anaemia." Nutritional anaemias are known to be widely prevalent in the Indian sub-continent, and of these, iron deficiency anaemia appears to be the most common.
