Answer 2

Answer:

Iron is required for prevention of iron-deficiency anemia.

Explanation:

• This anemia can largely be prevented by taking the adequate recommended amount of iron daily.
• Iron is highly required to synthesize hemoglobin, the blood pigment.
• Lack of hemoglobin leads to lack of oxygen supply which leads to many pathological conditions.
• Symptoms of iron deficiency include general fatigue, pale skin and eyes, weakness, shortness of breath, headaches etc.
• This anemia is quite common among women due to menstrual and pregnancy losses and hence should be supplemented adequately.
