Anaemia :

Reasons for Indian women prone to anaemia:

1. It is not uncommon in India for women to be the last ones to eat, often after the most nutritious portions have been consumed by the rest of the family members.
2. due to limited access to nutritious food and healthcare.
3. Iron-rich foods like meat, fish, and leafy greens can be out of reach for many due to their cost
4. Many women lack basic nutrition knowledge and are unaware of the essential food groups required for a balanced diet.
5. We have moved away from balanced diets and turned to processed foods / ready to eat food products Print
