You know! 85 % of indian women are anemic! . As per the present day dietary habits ,taking supplementary feed is must for reproductive age group women as they have regular menstrual loss of blood.

Government had launched many programmes i n this regard, but none of them reached the needy women. Govt may not be sincere in its efforts, But cant we atleast bring awareness in the women in our family and in our village.

ANEMIA LEADS TO DECREASED LIFE EXPECTANCY :

Yes, its sure-DECREASED BLOOD CONTENT IMPAIRED OXYGEN SUPPLY TO CELLS IMPAIRED IMMUNITY EASILY PRONE TO DISEASES FASTENED AGING DECREASED LIFE EXPECTANCY.

Women in Japan , USA ,Uk have 7yrs, 5.5yrs,6 yrs, more life expectancy when compared to men.But in India it was just 1.5-2 yrs high .

In fact Indian women should still have a higher margin of life expectancy than that of those countries, as our women are least prone to major causes of deadth than them. This gives the proof for the theory that anemia leads to decreased life expectancy.

In general even if you observe couple of same age , women looks a bit aged than men - Its the cause . So, we consider anemia as one of the major health burden in our country .We will bring a massive aw areness in this regard through college students and high school children asking them to take of their mothers atleast – Its AMMA KOSAM theme.
