Do you always feel tired? Do you always feel like you have no energy? Or have shortness of breath?…you may well be suffering from anaemia.
The most common cause of Anaemia is due to a lack of iron in yo ur blood, which means less red blood cells are produced, in turn, less oxygen is supplied to the organs and thus causing our body to function irregularly. Other causes include a lack of Vitamin B-12 & lack of Folic Acid.
Its effects women in particular who are more affected during heavy periods, pregnancy and the post-menopausal stage. A study “NFHS-3 indicates that 36 percent of Indian women are chronically undernourished and 55 percent are anaemic’’ Karen Hulshof, Unicef representative. If left untreated it can lead to further long-term medical complications such as chronic tiredness, a weakened immune system and complications during pregnancy.
Do not let Anaemia get you down; here are three simple solutions that will pick you back up again…
Don’t get beat up over it, simply eat up over it…
Ensure you are supporting yourself with a healthy diet. Foods that are high in iron are a sure fire way to beat the blues. These include dark green vegetables, lentils, pulses, beans, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, brown rice & tofu are all examples of kinds of foods you should be eating. A quick recipe for success is Dry Roasted Chick Peas. The ingredients include 2 cups of cooked chickpeas, ½ teaspoon garlic powder & ½ teaspoon sea salt. Prepare by preheating the oven to 350 degrees, then mix the ingredients together & spread on a lightly greased sheet and cook for 30 minutes until the chickpeas are crisp on the outside, slightly tender inside. This is but one of hundred recipes taken from the book ‘’Forget Calories…Love food’’ by Ravi Bhanot and Sushma Bhanot.
Take the all-natural approach…
The Ancient Wisdom of Ayurveda dictates that we are in complete harmony when all three Dosha’s; namely Vata, Pitta & Kapha are in perfect balance. When there is an imbalance, however, we tend to succumb to illnesses such as Anaemia. Hence it becomes the sole duty of Ayurvedic Medicine such as The Coolherbals Ashwagandha & Ginger Capsules to correct this situation. The Ashwangandha helps to increase muscle power and stamina, ashwa literally meaning horse.
The Ginger increases your Agni, the biological fire that provides energy for the body to function. The herbal approach is, in fact, superior in the sense that there are no side effects.
It’s not set in stone, but it IS on the tablet…
