Anemia is characterized by a decrease of red blood cells that have hemoglobin which are the oxygen carrying molecules within the blood. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of our bodies. If there is a deficiency of hemoglobin, this can cause fatigue and palor.

There are several different types of Anemia:

• Iron deficiency
• Pernicious Anemia – the bodies inability to assimilate B12
• Genetic Defect
• Hemolytic Anemia – the destruction of red blood cells

To diagnose Anemia several blood tests may be required. Diagnosis should be made by a physician. Do not take iron supplements unless advised to do so by a physician. Excess iron can compromise function of the heart, liver and kidneys.
