Episode 29- Anemia in Children

Anemia due to iron deficiency. 
According to the World Health Organization, WHO, over 300 million children are anemic because they do not eat food rich in iron or because of blood loss. Another way children lose blood and iron and become anemic is through worm infestations. Worm infection is common in certain parts of the world and could be a common way for children to lose blood and the iron in the blood, thus becoming anemic.
