Iron is necessary for everyone, but for children, iron is extremely important. Because children are the most susceptible to iron deficiency due to increased demand. Iron requirements in children can increase up to 7 times compared with adults based on body weight. In anemia, the ability of red blood cells to carry oxygen is reduced. Lack of oxygen in the organs, especially the heart, muscles, and brain, causes heart palpitations. Anemic young children can develop heart failure. There are also manifestations such as: dizziness, dizziness due to lack of oxygen in the brain, and weak muscles. And finally, the body is tired.
However, iron supplementation for children is difficult because the fishy taste of iron makes children vomit, DHA and other substances in milk cause iron to precipitate in the stomach, causing constipation and digestive disorders. However, with microencapsulation technology, Hulic and Novapharm have thoroughly solved the above problems.
