Book Free DemoAnaemia:
The decrease in the total number of red blood cells is known as anaemia. It is a condition that develops due to food consumption with less iron content and can also occur due to the feeding of some other foods instead of breast milk. When this condition becomes severe in children, it leads to other problems such as hookworm infection, chronic diarrhoea, and dysentery. It has been discovered that in the recent school-going children, significantly the girls are affected majorly by anaemia. Hence to prevent this, the Government of Tamil Nadu provides all the school going girls in all the areas throughout Tamil Nadu with weekly iron-folic tablets.
