Iron deficiency anemia:<\/strong><br \/>\nThis occurs when the body does not have enough iron.\u00a0If this mineral is deficient, the body cannot produce sufficient amounts of hemoglobin, the substance found in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to other tissues.\u00a0This is the most common picture of anemia, since it represents 50% of them.<br \/>\nthawed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.Pernicious anemia: Pernicious<\/strong><br \/>\nanemia occurs when the intestines do not absorb vitamin B12 properly.\u00a0It is necessary for the proper functioning of the brain, the nervous system and for the formation of blood and various proteins.\u00a0Under normal conditions, a glycoprotein called intrinsic factor (IF) absorbs this vitamin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Folate deficiency anemia:<\/strong><br \/>\nAs its name suggests, this type of anemia causes a decrease in the number of red blood cells (anemia) due to a lack of folic acid, which is necessary for their synthesis and growth.\u00a0The main causes of this imbalance are a lack of folic acid in the diet, hemolytic anemia, chronic alcoholism and the consumption of certain drugs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia:<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is a form of anemia that avoids nutritional requirements because the patient&#8217;s immune system is responsible for destroying its own red blood cells.\u00a0It is a rare disease, whose cause is not found in half of the cases, idiopathic.\u00a0However, it can be a consequence of other underlying diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and lymphoma.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Aplastic anemia:<\/strong><br \/>\nAplastic anemia occurs when the body stops making the necessary number of new blood cells.\u00a0It is a rare and potentially serious disease that can develop slowly or suddenly at any age.\u00a0Symptoms are similar to those of other types of anemia, but there may also be signs such as frequent infections, nosebleeds or bleeding gums, bruising, and unexplained rashes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Sickle cell anemia:<\/strong><br \/>\nSickle cell anemia encompasses a group of inherited disorders that affect the red blood cells.\u00a0These blood cells are round and disk-shaped, but in this disease some red blood cells (sickle cells) become misshapen, making them stickier and harder than normal.\u00a0Sickle cells die before normal cells and can clog and block blood flow.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1921 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"990\" height=\"556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre.jpeg 990w, https:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre-300x168.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre-768x431.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre-18x10.jpeg 18w, https:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre-380x213.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/intikisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/globulos-rojos-sangre-600x337.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 990px) 100vw, 990px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Common symptoms:<\/h2>\n<p>\u2013 Fatigue<br \/>\n\u2013 Weakness<br \/>\n\u2013 Pale or yellowish skin<br \/>\n\u2013 Arrhythmia<br \/>\n\u2013 Labored breathing<br \/>\n\u2013 Dizziness or vertigo<br \/>\n\u2013 Chest pain<br \/>\n\u2013 Cold hands and feet<br \/>\n\u2013 Headache<\/p>\n<h2>Prevention:<\/h2>\n<p>Many types of anemia cannot be prevented.\u00a0However, you can prevent iron deficiency anemia and vitamin deficiency anemia by eating a diet with a variety of vitamins and minerals, including:<\/p>\n<p><strong>-Iron: <\/strong>Iron-rich foods include beef and other meats, beans, lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, and dried fruits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>-Folic acid:<\/strong>\u00a0This nutrient and its synthetic form, folic acid, are found in fruits and juices, dark green leafy vegetables, peas, beans, peanuts, and fortified grains such as bread, cereal, pasta, and rice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>-Vitamin B-12:<\/strong>\u00a0Foods rich in vitamin B-12 include meat, dairy products, fortified cereals, and soy products.<\/p>\n<p><strong>-Vitamin C:<\/strong>\u00a0Foods rich in vitamin C include citrus fruits and juices, bell peppers, broccoli, tomatoes, melons, and strawberries.\u00a0They also help increase iron absorption.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anemia is when you don&#8217;t have enough healthy red blood cells to carry enough oxygen to your body&#8217;s tissues.\u00a0Anemia, also known as low hemoglobin, can make you feel tired and weak.\u00a0Anemia comes in many forms, each with its own cause.\u00a0Anemia can be short-term or long-term and can range from mild to severe.\u00a0In most cases, anemia [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3627,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1920","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1920"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3628,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920\/revisions\/3628"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3627"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1920"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1920"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intikisa.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1920"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
