Young children in the first year of life are often prone to anemia, which is the result of insufficient levels of hemoglobin in the blood. Anemia is quite dangerous for the child, as it leads to a decrease in immunity and body resistance and slows the development of the child. Its level can usually be found by routine blood tests. A pediatrician who detects a low rate of hemoglobin in the blood is often advised to start taking special medications in order to increase hemoglobin in children in the blood.
However, in many cases, this measure is extreme, and not every mother wants to stuff her child with medicines from an early age. Very often, hemoglobin in children in the blood can be increased by adding natural products to the children's diet that stimulate its production.
Products that can increase hemoglobin in children.
- all cereal cereals, except semolina, especially buckwheat (record holder for iron content) and all legumes (lentils, beans);
- white chicken, beef liver, heart, tongue;
- red fruits - apples, red varieties of plums, pomegranates, pears, peaches, raw and dried apricots, quince, persimmon;
- onions, all fresh green vegetables, tomatoes, young potatoes with peeled spinach, pumpkin and, of course, beets;
- bright red and black berries: strawberries, blueberries, cranberries, black currants (even a frozen store mix is suitable);
- all types of freshly squeezed natural juices from red vegetables and fruits - beetroot, carrot, pumpkin, pomegranate;
- a lot of iron is found in egg yolk, caviar, seafood, large red raisins, dried fruits such as dried apricots or dates. You can give your child a hematogen, but in this case it’s worth choosing not modern sweet tiles, but a natural product with a minimum of supplements and sweeteners. All these funds can successfully replace traditional medicines and increase hemoglobin in children to the desired level.
