Drops is a health supplement. The body needs iron in order to make haemoglobin, an iron-containing protein in the red blood cells (RBCs). Haemoglobin helps your blood carry oxygen and deliver it to all of your other cells.
Without haemoglobin, the body will stop producing healthy RBCs. Without enough iron, your child’s muscles, tissues, and cells won’t get the oxygen they need.
Breast-fed babies have their own iron stores and usually get enough iron from their mother’s milk for the first 6 months, while bottle-fed infants typically receive a formula fortified with iron. But when your older infant switches to eating more solid foods, they might not be eating enough iron-rich foods. This puts them at risk for iron-deficiency anemia.
Iron is an essential element for blood production. Iron plays vital role in a variety of other important processes in the body. In red blood cells, iron combines with a protein called haemoglobin.
Lack of iron in human body will cause iron deficiency anemia in both adult and children. Folic acid helps tissues grow and cells work, works with vitamin B12 and vitamin C to help the body break down, use, and create new proteins and helps to form red blood cells.
