Local African meals are heavy laden with carbohydrate and continuous consumption could result in Anaemia. These Nigerian foods can help increase red blood cells.

               
           
               
                   

A state in which the body cells are deprived of their energy supply because of low number of red blood cells which carry food and oxygen to the cells, is known as Anaemia. It is casually referred to as a loss of blood. Iron, Vitamin B12 and Folic acid deficiencies could be the reason for the low blood cells.

               
           
               
                   

Iron is needed in small quantities in the body because its main function is to supply blood, increase blood flow and aid blood cell metabolism.

               
           
               
                   

These meals are rich in Iron to combat anaemia.
