WHAT IS LOW HEMOGLOBIN (ANEMIA) AND NORMAL HEMOGLOBIN LEVEL FOR MEN AND WOMEN
Deficiency of blood which is also called anemia. Red blood cells and hemoglobin levels decrease. Normal hemoglobin level is considered to be between 14% to 17% in males and this range should be from 12% to 15% in females.
However, if hemoglobin decreases, symptoms of weakness start appearing in the body.
We start getting tired even after doing a little work and when we go out somewhere during summers. Due to Sun, headache starts.
And in winters, the hands of these people remain cold. Now due to low hemoglobin, weakness occurs because the main function of hemoglobin is to supply oxygen to different organs of the body.
Now if oxygen is not supplied properly, then the organs of the body will not be able to function properly, due to which weakness starts appearing in the entire body.
If there is anemia, then your face also starts looking dull. This happens because oxygen is not reaching your organs properly. In fact, doctors can tell by just looking at the face that there might be anemia.
MAIN CAUSES OF LOW HEMOGLOBIN
There are some reasons for anemia. You see what your reason is.
The first reason here is that we are eating well but there is iron deficiency in our diet. People who do not eat green leafy vegetables are at risk of anemia because iron is a nutrient that helps in the production of hemoglobin.
Vitamin C is very important for the proper absorption of iron.
Many people eat green leafy vegetables but they make one mistake due to which their iron is not absorbed and that mistake is drinking tea or coffee after eating green leafy vegetables.
But here I do not mean that you should stop drinking tea or coffee, but you should not drink these two things immediately after eating, at least you should drink these two things after 2 hours of eating food.
Some people have problem of piles or some women have excessive bleeding during periods, you should understand one thing here that when more blood comes out of your body then you may suffer from anemia.
But you do not need to worry because anemia lasts only for a few days. I can get well if attention is paid to diet. See, the lentils, green leafy vegetables and grains that we eat in our daily life increase blood.
TOP 4 FOODS THAT HELP INCREASE HEMOGLOBIN NATURALLY
If you include these 4 things in your diet, then there will never be any deficiency of blood in your body and if there is no deficiency of blood, then the flow of oxygen in your body will remain good.
FOOD 1: MANGO
The first food that cures blood deficiency and is in season these days is mango.
A fully ripe mango with sweetness spread on it tastes very good and also cures blood deficiency. This is because mango contains very high amounts of vitamin C and folic acid.
Along with this, mango contains potassium and a lot of fiber due to which it is a very good fruit for the stomach.
It is written in Ayurveda that a well ripe whole mango is so healthy that it provides instant energy to your body and also improves your blood.
It is interesting to see that mango does create heat in the body but if you pay attention to these 3 things then mango will not create heat in your body at all.
First thing is that you should eat only that much mango at a time which you can digest. Many times people eat a lot of mangoes due to the taste due to which people’s stomach gets upset.
And second thing is that whenever you bring mango, soak it in water for 2-3 hours. By soaking in water the heat of the mango goes away.
And the third point here is that after eating mango drink raw lassi then mango will not create heat in your body and mango is such a fruit which you can eat even after eating food.
FOOD 2: RAISINS
Friends, now let’s talk about another food that quickly replenishes blood deficiency and is also available year-round. That is raisins.
When grapes are dried, we call them raisins. After the drying process, they become even healthier than ripe grapes.
Raisins are rich in iron, hence they are an absolute top food for blood formation. If you eat raisins daily even for a month, your blood will become firm easily.
Many times people make the mistake of eating dry raisins. If you do not get the maximum benefits of raisins, If you want to take it, there are 3 ways by which you will get maximum benefit from raisins.
The first point is simple, soak a handful of raisins in a glass and leave it for 4-5 hours so that the raisins swell well and the water becomes sweet, then you can drink the drink and eat the raisins along with it, this is a great snack option.
The second point here is that you can eat raisins with milk as well, put a glass of milk in a pan and add 10-12 raisins and then boil the milk well, the combination of milk and raisins increases blood very quickly.
And the third point is that you can eat raisins with curd as well.
Now, when we make curd at home, we put a little sour thing in lukewarm milk and keep it aside and the curd gets curdled within a few hours.
In such a situation, put 10-12 raisins in curd as well. Then the curd which will be made will be full of probiotic and prebiotic bacteria, eating which will increase vitamin B12 in your body.
Often, when no reason is found for blood deficiency, the doctor gives vitamin B12 capsules to the patient.
FOOD 3: BEETROOT
Friends, the next food I am going to talk about to boost blood is so powerful that even expensive supplements and all other foods pale in comparison to it and the name of that food is beetroot.
Beetroot has a special thing due to which it is so special and that is nitrates.
When we eat beetroot, the nitrates obtained from it get converted into nitric oxide in the body which opens the blood vessels and when the blood vessels are open then the blood flow will be easy and if the blood flow is easy then oxygen will also go easily inside your body.
This is the biggest reason that eating beetroot does not cause fatigue quickly, in fact a study on professional cyclists.
And it was observed that by drinking beetroot juice just once, their body’s ability to use oxygen increased by 20%.
This is the reason why beetroot is considered the best food to increase endurance, strength and stamina.
If you eat beetroot for a few days, your blood will get tied very quickly. Basically, you have to try to make beetroot a part of your daily diet.
FOOD 4: PLUM
The next food for increasing blood might surprise you and I am talking about eating plums.
Many people do not know that eating plums increases your hemoglobin very quickly. This is because plums contain everything that the body needs for increasing blood like iron, vitamin C, folic acid.
Plums not only increase blood in your body but also because it is a cold fruit, it does not let your body become too hot.
If you feel too hot, sweat a lot or have acidity, then you must eat plums. The darker the color of the plum, the better. It happens that it is more ripe and sweeter.
CONCLUSION
So friends, if you’re experiencing unexplained fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness, a dull complexion, or low energy, ignoring them is a no-brainer.
These symptoms aren’t just weakness, but could be your body’s signal that you’re suffering from a blood deficiency, or hemoglobin.
The good news is that anemia isn’t a serious or incurable problem; all it takes is the right diet at the right time and a little lifestyle discipline.
Today we talked about natural foods like mango, raisins, beetroot and plums, these are not only good for increasing blood but also help in improving energy, stamina and immunity of the entire body.
If you include these foods in your daily routine in the right way, then you will not only feel less tired but will also feel a different freshness and power throughout the day.
