POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. If your daughter has a hemoglobin level of only 6.8, it is considered quite low and needs attention. Along with the treatment and supplements prescribed by the doctor (like iron syrups or tablets), you should focus on giving her iron-rich foods to naturally boost her hemoglobin.
Include foods like mashed spinach, beetroot, pomegranate, apple, banana, jaggery (gur), dates, raisins, and lentils in her daily diet. Cook food in iron utensils to increase the iron content. Vitamin C helps in iron absorption, so give her fruits like oranges, guava, or lemon juice with meals. Also, avoid giving milk or dairy products close to iron-rich meals, as they can hinder iron absorption.
It’s important to follow up with a pediatrician to monitor her levels regularly and adjust treatment as needed. Low hemoglobin can affect overall growth and development, so early and consistent care is key.
