The skin is pale. This is the most prominent manifestation of anemia in children, especially in the face, lips, auricles, palms and nail beds, and the conjunctiva and oral mucosa are more pale.

matters needing attention

Usually should eat more iron rich food, such as lean meat, pig liver, egg yolk and kelp, Nostoc flagelliforme, Porphyra, fungus, Xiangru beans, etc. Should pay attention to the reasonable diet, such as eating some fruits after meals, fruits are rich in vitamin C and fruit acid, can promote the absorption of iron. When drinking strong tea after meal, the iron will combine with tannic acid in tea to form precipitate, which will affect the absorption of iron. In addition, cooking food in an iron pot is of great benefit to the prevention of anemia. Folic acid and vitamin B12 are also essential for hematopoiesis. Fresh green vegetables, fruits, melons, beans and meat are rich in folic acid. Meat, liver, kidney, heart and other viscera are rich in vitamin B12. However, after high temperature cooking, more than 50% folic acid and 10-30% vitamin B12 can be destroyed. Therefore, we should not only pay attention to the diversification of diet, but also pay attention to cooking techniques, and try to avoid over cooking food.
