How should pediatric anemia be treated?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. How should pediatric anemia be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! The most common type of anemia in babies is iron deficiency anemia, which is caused by a lack of iron in the body to produce hemoglobin. Feeding your baby iron-rich complementary foods is a good way to improve anemia. Iron-rich foods include animal liver, animal blood, poultry and meat, fish, etc., and the iron in them is easily absorbed by your baby. Eating more foods rich in vitamin C helps your baby absorb iron better.
