Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Raw rice is difficult to digest in body. So cooking helps in digestion and easy absorption of nutrients. Get blood test done, CBC, peripheral smear, to know your Hb level. first need to know weather you are anemic and cause for anaemia. Treatment depends on cause. In take of only folic acid doesn't solve your problem. Cysts on eye lid could be due to repeated infection of glands, hygienic measures help to reduce it. For repeated UTI need to get evaluated. Treatment depends on it. Consult doctor for examination and further management.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
