Its a blood disease you get from not eating right.
When you pull the bottom of your eye...dont know whats called, it is suppose to have blood at the bottom, be really red, but anaemics(sp) are white, thats the easiest way to see.
"The blood in our bodies is composed of three types of cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets) that circulate throughout the body. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin (Hb), a red, iron-rich protein that carries oxygen from the lungs to all of the body's muscles and organs. Oxygen provides the energy the body needs for all of its normal activities. Anemia occurs when the number of red blood cells (or the Hb in them) falls below normal and the body gets less oxygen and therefore has less energy than it needs to function properly. "
Its Ok Pheonix its not that bad, i was anemic a few years ago when i was suffering from anorexia but im better now, just eat better foods and see ur doc on a regular basis, theyll tell u what u can eat that will help you get your blood count back up
Yeh vegies usually dont eat the proteins the body needs. Cos e meat and fish have stuff you need. You can get it in vegie food too. You just have to know where to look. Go to a food doctor Sorry I dont know the name in english.
