Anaemia is where the haemoglobin within your red blood cells is lower than normal. Haemoglobin is needed to carry oxygen and if there’s not enough there’s a decreased capacity to carry oxygen to the body’s tissue, which can cause fatigue, dizziness and shortness of breath.

The most common nutritional cause of anaemia is through deficiencies of iron, B12 and folate through poor absorption of nutrients (via diet). However, infections, illness and inflammation and genetic disorders can also cause anaemia.
