Feeling tired all day falls victim to this blood related problem! Women are more at risk Last Updated: November 30, 2025, 23:04 IST Symptoms of Anemia: Tiredness all the time, dizziness and shortness of breath can be signs of anemia. Anemia occurs when the amount of hemoglobin in the body decreases. This problem is more common in women and there are many factors behind it. Iron deficiency is the main cause of anemia. According to health experts, better eating habits and iron-rich diet can provide relief from anemia. In the state of anemia one feels tired all the time. Warning signs of anemia: When a person exerts too much physical effort, it causes fatigue. If you don’t do a lot of physical activity, but still experience problems such as fatigue, dizziness or shortness of breath, this could be a sign of some other problem. According to health experts, all these symptoms can be of anemia. Anemia is a condition when the amount of hemoglobin in the blood becomes less than normal. Hemoglobin works to transport oxygen to every part of the body, so its deficiency causes less energy in the body and the person feels weak. Women are more at risk of getting anemia than men. Dr. Sonia Rawat, Director of Preventive Health and Wellness Department of Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, New Delhi, told News18 that many symptoms are seen in the body of people due to anemia. Anemia develops slowly, as a result of which the symptoms are difficult to recognize at first. In the case of anemia, symptoms such as yellowing of the face and lips, dizziness, fatigue quickly, rapid heartbeat, cold hands and feet, shortness of breath, hair loss, breaking of nails or formation of white lines on them are seen. In severe anemia, a person feels tired even after walking lightly. Women have a higher risk of anemia due to excessive bleeding during periods, pregnancy and childbirth. Dr Rawat said that the main cause of anemia in women is deficiency of iron, folic acid and vitamin B12. Iron helps make hemoglobin in red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. When iron decreases, hemoglobin also decreases and the body feels tired due to lack of oxygen. Apart from this, excessive bleeding, poor digestion, kidney disease, stomach worms, pregnancy and low nutritional diet are the main causes of anemia. Due to junk food, irregular eating, stress, staying awake at night and diet without nutrients, the body does not get enough vitamins and minerals, thereby affecting the process of blood formation. Experts said that to get rid of anemia one should follow a diet rich in iron, folic acid and vitamin B12. For this, eat green leafy vegetables like spinach, fenugreek, amaranth, beetroot, carrot, jaggery, sesame, raisins, dates, pulses, eggs, fish and millet. Eat things rich in vitamin C like Amla and lemon. Vitamin C helps absorb iron in the body. In Ayurveda, Amla juice, Panchgavya Ghrit, Giloy, Punarnava, Ashwagandha and Shatavari are considered especially useful in increasing blood. Along with this, regular exercise, adequate sleep, stress control and staying away from junk food are also important. Consult a doctor in case of severe anemia. The doctor can give supplements according to the condition.
