Nutritional Anemia

Nutritional anemia occurs when your body lacks enough essential nutrients, particularly iron, vitamin B12, or folic acid, needed to produce healthy red blood cells. Without these nutrients, your blood can't carry sufficient oxygen to your tissues, leading to symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and pale skin. It often results from poor diet, inadequate absorption, or increased needs during pregnancy or illness. Addressing nutritional anemia involves improving dietary intake of these nutrients, supplements if necessary, and managing underlying causes to restore healthy red blood cell production and overall energy levels.
