Vitamin C helps in increasing the iron absorption while vitamin B9 and B12 helps build healthy red blood cells.
1 out of 2 women in India suffer from Anaemia. Anemia is a condition in which the body lacks enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen throughout the body. Since the symptoms of Anaemia are tiredness, breathlessness, hair fall, pale skin and brittle nails etc, many women tend to ignore these symptoms as they are very common. If a person has any of these symptoms, it is ideal to get a blood test and check if the iron levels are low. Anaemia can be overcome by intake of foods and supplements rich in iron and vitamins contents.
Manna iStrong is a specially formulated blend of multigrain base (5 grains: Ragi, Bajra, Sorghum, Maize, Wheat and 3 Super grains: Quinoa, Black rice, Amaranth) with key vitamins and minerals and is a rich source of antioxidants, iron, calcium, protein, dietary fiber along with goodness of milk protein.
