Answered by Apollo Doctors

What are the diagnostic features of iron deficiency?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have a habit of eating rice frequently, and I also tend to fall sick often. I usually feel very weak and experience pain in my hands and legs. The last time I got my hemoglobin tested, it was 9.1. Can you please suggest a diet plan to help me improve my immunity and feel healthier?
