All vitamins and minerals are necessary to keep the body healthy. One such important mineral is iron, the lack of which makes the body a home for diseases. If there is a lack of iron in the body, you can become a victim of anaemia. When anaemia occurs, the body starts to lack enough healthy red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen to the body's tissues. In such a situation, when there is a lack of iron in the body, a person feels very tired. Due to iron deficiency, breathing is difficult. According to a report published by Mayo Clinic, a lack of iron in the body for a long time can cause many diseases.

Iron deficiency anaemia can sometimes lead to serious conditions. Therefore, iron deficiency should not be taken lightly. If not treated in time, these health problems can arise.

Iron deficiency diseases

Heart problems- Heartbeats can become fast or irregular due to a lack of iron in the body. People who suffer from anaemia have to pump more blood due to a lack of oxygen in their blood. Due to this, the size of the heart can increase. Sometimes this condition can also cause a heart attack.

Problems in pregnancy-



Iron deficiency during pregnancy can cause serious problems. Iron deficiency in pregnant women can lead to premature birth of the baby. Sometimes its effect has been seen on the weight of the baby as well. Therefore, there should be no iron deficiency in the body of a woman during pregnancy.

Effect on the growth of the child- If the woman has iron deficiency during pregnancy, it can cause developmental problems in the child. Iron deficiency in children affects their growth. Therefore, iron-rich foods should be included in the diet of children.
