What is anaemia?
Anaemia is a condition in which there are not enough healthy red blood cells in the blood.
Anaemia generally occurs due to lack of RBCs or unhealthy RBCs due to which the body's organs receive less oxygen.

What are the causes of anaemia
Different types of anaemia have different causes some causes of anaemia are listed below:
Vitamin deficiency anaemia : the body needs folate and vitamins in order to produce healthy red blood cells. The body may not produce enough red blood cells if there is a lack of these essential nutrients
Iron deficiency anaemia : This type of anaemia is caused by the deficiency of iron. Iron is needed by bone marrow to produce haemoglobin. The body cannot produce enough haemoglobin for red blood cells if there is insufficient iron.
This kind of anaemia can occur in pregnant women usually who do not take iron supplements. Loss of blood can potentially be the cause. Heavy monthly flow, ulcers, cancer, or long-term use of certain painkillers, particularly aspirin, can all result in this type of anaemia
Sickle cell anaemia : This kind of hemolytic anaemia is inherited and can occasionally be life-threatening. In this condition red blood cells have a sickle shape. These atypical blood cells expire prematurely. This results in a persistent deficiency of red blood cells.
Anaemia due to inflammation: Chronic inflammatory diseases may prevent the body from producing enough red blood cells. Crohn's illness, rheumatoid arthritis, kidney disease, cancer, and HIV/AIDS are a few examples which can aid in the anaemia.
Aplastic anaemia: this is a rare life threatening condition in which the body doesn't produce enough red blood cells , it can be due to autoimmune disease or chronic illness
Apart from the given causes, there can be many other reasons for anaemia. People who do not take proper care of their diet may develop anaemia due to malnutrition, and should eat food which is completely healthy and rich in nutrients. Always get your routine health checkup done so that you can know early if you have anaemia so that timely intervention can be done most of the times anaemia can be cured with a healthy diet only if diagnosed at early stages and no chronic illness is associated with the anaemia.
