Anemia

Red blood cells to supply your tissues with enough oxygen

When you have anaemia, your body doesn't produce enough healthy red blood cells to supply your tissues with enough oxygen. Being anaemic, or having low haemoglobin, can make you feel exhausted and frail.

Anemia can have many different forms

Anemia can have many different forms, each with a unique aetiology. Anemia can be mild to severe and can be short-term or long-term. Anemia typically has multiple causes. If you believe you may have anaemia, consult a physician. It can be an indicator of a serious sickness.

Depending on the underlying cause of anaemia

Depending on the underlying cause of anaemia, treatments might range from taking supplements to receiving medical attention. Eating a healthy, diversified diet may help you avoid some types of anaemia.
