Anemia is a health problem that many people face, especially women who are more prone to anemia due to their unique physiological structure. So how should women with anemia be treated? Below, we summarize several different methods of anemia treatment that you can try!
【Symptoms of anemia in women】
1. Weakness in limbs
Weakness in limbs is a common symptom of anemia. When the body lacks oxygen due to anemia, the muscles can become oxygen deficient, resulting in fatigue and weakness in the limbs.
2. Cardiovascular diseases
Women with anemia are more prone to cardiovascular diseases due to insufficient blood supply. Common symptoms include palpitations, rapid heartbeat, and in severe cases, angina and even heart failure.
3. Dizziness and blurred vision
Anemic individuals may experience dizziness and blurred vision due to insufficient blood supply to the brain. Other symptoms may include headaches, tinnitus, decreased memory, and lack of concentration.
4. Pale complexion
A pale complexion is a noticeable symptom of anemia, and it can be easily observed by looking at a person's face.
【Foods for blood supplementation in women】
1. Red dates
Almost all women know that red dates have the effect of replenishing blood. In addition to its blood replenishing effect, red dates also have the benefits of nourishing the heart and lungs, and calming the mind and invigorating the spleen and stomach.
Therefore, it is recommended for anemic women to eat ten red dates every day. However, red dates are warm in nature, so it is best not to consume too many at once to avoid overheating the body.
2. Pig liver
Pig liver is a food rich in iron, making it suitable for people with anemia or blood deficiency. Eating stir-fried pig liver with spinach can have certain therapeutic effects on health and well-being. However, because pig liver contains relatively high cholesterol, it is generally not favored by modern people for blood supplementation. Instead, consuming lean pork or other red meats directly is a better option for preventing anemia.
3. Lotus root
Lotus root is a food that can be eaten raw or cooked, and it has the effects of cooling blood, stopping bleeding, and dispersing stasis. It is especially good for women to eat lotus root regularly for maintaining health. However, not all women are suitable for consuming lotus root. For example, women with poor constitution, cold uterus, and during menstruation are advised not to eat lotus root.
【How to regulate anemia in women】
1. Lifestyle adjustment
Once anemia occurs, women need to be careful in their daily lives. They should ensure a pleasant mood, avoid intense exercise, and avoid excessive physical labor. When engaging in physical exercise, it is important to ensure a slow and steady pace to avoid dizziness and falls.
2. Psychological adjustment
A woman's mood directly affects the function of various organs in her body. Research has found that a woman's bad mood can lead to stagnant Qi and blood stasis, and may even increase menstrual flow. To maintain a healthy blood and Qi, it is important for women to maintain a good mood and avoid depression and sadness. If necessary, women can seek necessary psychological counseling.
3. Dietary adjustment
Iron is the necessary raw material for blood production in the human body, and vitamin C helps with the absorption and utilization of iron in the body. Therefore, it is important for women with iron deficiency anemia to eat foods rich in iron and vitamin C. This is the key to blood supplementation.
