How can TCM deal with pediatric anemia?

  Proper feeding is essential to ensure that children receive iron and nutrients, and is an extremely important aspect of preventing iron deficiency anemia. The term “reasonable” here refers to the fact that the allocation of milk food should be based on the age of the child and the selection of an appropriate diet. For example, 6 months after birth, children should pay attention to adding supplementary food to meet the needs of growth and development, you can choose the appropriate egg yolk, lean minced meat and vegetable juice, fruit juice, vegetable puree, pig liver puree and so on. This can effectively prevent the occurrence of iron deficiency anemia.  Once a child suffers from iron deficiency anemia, he or she will be prone to lethargy, fatigue, restlessness, anorexia, bloating, diarrhea, malnutrition and colds. If the hematocrit is lower than 11g/dL, the child is anemic and should be treated actively to correct the anemia.  According to Chinese medicine, children’s spleen and stomach are weak in transporting and transforming, so if they eat too much, they will hurt their stomach, and if they are too hungry, they will hurt their spleen, so the water and grain essence cannot be transported and transformed, and the blood and fluids cannot be produced, thus forming anemia. In addition, if one can eat enough, but the digestion and absorption function of the spleen and stomach is weak, anemia will also occur. Therefore, TCM advocates the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in children by strengthening the spleen, benefiting Qi and nourishing blood.
