Prevalence of Anaemia in Muslim population

Priyanka Verma*

Anaemia is a majority nutritional problem across the globe; it develops due to lack in healthy red blood cells or haemoglobin. Prevalence of anaemia is higher among developing nations, because of low socioeconomic status. There is a significant relationship between anaemia and socioeconomic status, dietary modifications, nutritional supplementation, in addition compliance with consumption of iron and folic acid tablets. For this, study has been designed to study relationship between socioeconomic status and prevalence of anaemia among female Muslim population. Camp has been organized in Abul fazal enclave, Jamia Nagar, blood sample was collected from 105 Muslim female, which have low socioeconomic status. It has been found that 44.85% had mild anaemia and 42% had moderate anemia, which may be due to nutritional deficiency. Therefore there is a need for developing and implementing policies which improve and eliminate socioeconomic disparities which indirectly improves women health.
