Try Sanhong Tang for Iron Deficiency Anemia

Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is anemia caused by the inability of the body to store enough iron to meet the needs of normal red blood cell production. It is the most common anemia. Most cases are caused by increased iron requirements but insufficient iron intake, reduced iron absorption, iron absorption disorders or excessive iron loss. Clinically, there are many symptoms such as pale complexion, fatigue, limb fatigue, dizziness, headache, blurred vision, tinnitus, palpitations and shortness of breath. In severe cases, hair may become dry and easy to fall off, nails may crack, or even become spoon-shaped.

In clinical practice, oral ferrous sulfate or iron dextran is generally preferred. In order to reduce gastrointestinal reactions, it is usually taken after meals. It is worth noting that iron preparations should not be taken at the same time as milk, coffee or calcium-containing foods to prevent the absorption of iron. Vitamin C and dilute hydrochloric acid can be added when taking oral iron preparations to prevent the oxidation of divalent iron. Dilute hydrochloric acid can convert trivalent iron into divalent iron, which is beneficial to the absorption of iron.

In terms of diet, you should eat more iron-rich foods, such as animal liver, lean meat, eggs, beans, seaweed, etc. Eating fruits or foods rich in vitamin C, such as grapefruit, oranges, kiwis, peppers, radishes, etc., can promote iron absorption. In addition, I recommend a clinical experience recipe to everyone.

Three red soup

9 red dates (Xinjiang Jun dates are the best), 20g peanut skins, 30g red beans. Cook the above three ingredients into porridge and eat once a day.

This medicinal recipe has the effects of nourishing blood, promoting blood circulation, and transforming essence into marrow. Red dates are sweet and warm in nature. They belong to the spleen and stomach meridians. They have the functions of nourishing the middle and replenishing qi, nourishing blood and calming the mind. Red dates have been one of the "five fruits" (peach, plum, plum, apricot, and date) recorded in the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" since ancient times. Modern research shows that red dates are rich in iron, an essential element for synthesizing hemoglobin. Jujubes contain a large amount of cyclic adenosine monophosphate, which enhances the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow and increases the red blood cell content in the blood. Peanut red skin can nourish blood and stop bleeding. Studies have shown that peanut red skin can increase the content of platelets, improve the quality of platelets, strengthen the contraction function of capillaries, and has the function of promoting bone marrow hematopoiesis. Red beans are sweet and sour in taste, neutral in nature, and belong to the heart and small intestine meridians. They have the effects of nourishing blood and activating blood circulation, strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness, and promoting diuresis and reducing swelling. (▲Song Tianli)
