Understanding the Basics of Anaemia

-
Do you always feel tired and fatigue? Have you observed that you can't keep up with your buddies during sports, jogging or tracking? Do you frequently get ill with numerous diseases due to your weak immunity? If answers to these questions are affirmative, then you might be anaemic. The anaemia is nothing but the deficiency or iron in the body which affects the production of red blood cells (RBC). According to the survey of World Health Organization, the iron deficiency is the most common cause of anaemia worldwide. It has already been identified as a modifiable risk factor for the poor development of more than around 200 million children under 5 years of age in developing countries like the US and UK. 

What is Anaemia?
Anaemia is diagnosed with any condition in where the decrease in the number of circulating red blood cells is observed. Conditions, where our body is not able to produce enough healthy RBCs, destroying too many RBCs or loses circulating RBCs can all lead to anaemia. Red blood cells are vital to our body's well-being. They carry haemoglobin which is a complex protein that contains iron molecules.

          The primary function of these iron molecules is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. If there are not enough red blood cells, the amount of oxygen an individual may experience symptoms such as feeling tired or weak.

What are the complications caused by anaemia?
If left untreated, the iron deficiency in blood can cause many health issues, such as -

Severe fatigue
When anaemia is severe enough, you may be so tired that you can't complete everyday tasks.

Pregnancy complications
Pregnant women suffering from folate deficiency anaemia are more vulnerable to several complications, such as premature birth.

Heart problems
Anaemia can cause a rapid or irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). When you're anaemic, your heart must pump more blood to recompense for the lack of oxygen present in the blood. Eventually, this can lead to an enlarged heart or heart failure.

Death
Some inherited anaemias, such as sickle cell anaemia, can be severe and result in life-threatening difficulties. Losing a lot of blood in a short time results in acute, severe anaemia and can be fatal.

When to see a doctor?
Make an appointment with your private physician if you're feeling fatigued for unexplained reasons. Some anaemia such as iron deficiency anaemia or vitamin B-12 deficiency, are common. You can get the vitamins and iron supplements online from a pharmaceutical wholesaler or retailer in the UK at affordable rates.
