Anemia
When there are not enough healthy red blood cells floating around in your blood, you have anemia. Inadequate levels of hemoglobin, an iron-rich protein, may also cause anemia. The oxygen in the lungs is transported to the cells through hemoglobin.
Due to blood loss in the bowels, people with UC are more likely to develop anemia. Due to low blood oxygen levels, people experience fatigue and weakness.
Those who suffer from UC should strive to keep their colitis under control as a means of avoiding anemia. In addition, you should take measures to increase your iron intake.
From your doctor, inquire about iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid supplements, as well as dietary adjustments that might increase iron levels. Iron-rich foods include red meat, chicken, turkey, hog, ham, and fish. Spinach, tofu, legumes, dried fruits, iron-fortified cereals and bread are all good iron sources for vegetarians.
Never ignore any symptoms, and always report them to your doctor. You may feel better and increase your quality of life by reducing the negative consequences of UC.
