Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Anemia at this age is due to nutritional cause.
2. Nutritious diet rich in fish, egg, lean meat, pulses, legumes, green leafy vegetables and fruits is necessary. Additionally supplements of Vit B-complex and iron is also necessary.
3. If it does not improve, supplement infusion will be necessary, as due to age related changes, you are possibly suffering from malabsorption.
4. Control of blood sugar is essential within normal range to avoid organ damage.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
