What is Anaemia?
Anaemia is a condition in which the amount of red blood cells in the body is below normal.

What are the common signs and symptoms of anemia in children?
Pale or sallow (yellow) skin
Pale cheeks and lips
Lining of the eyelids and the nail beds may look less pink than normal
Irritability
Mild weakness
Tiring easily, napping more frequently.

Children experiencing red blood cell destruction may become jaundiced (yellowing of the skin or eyes) and have dark tea or cola-colored urine.

Children with severe anemia may have additional signs and symptoms:
Shortness of breath
Rapid heart rate
Swollen hands and feet
Headaches
Dizziness and fainting
Restless leg syndrome

When kids eat non-foods:
​Children with anemia caused by very low levels of iron in their blood may also eat strange non-food things such as ice, dirt, clay, paper, cardboard, and cornstarch. This behavior is called "pica" (pronounced pie-kuh). Pica often occurs in children who are low in iron and can cause constipation. In these children, the pica usually stops after the anemia is treated with iron supplements.

WHAT IS ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH?

The environment can directly and indirectly impact on our health and wellbeing. Environmental health examines the interaction between the environment and our health.

We Use The Following Definitions:

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH refers to aspects of human health (including quality of life) that are determined by physical, chemical, biological, social and psychosocial factors in the environment.

ENVIRONMENT broadly includes everything
external to ourselves, including the physical, natural, social and behavioral environments.

HEALTH is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing, and is not merely the absence of disease or illness.

Why is the environment important for health?
We need safe, healthy and supportive environments for good health. The environment in which we live is a major determinant of our health and wellbeing. We depend on the environment for energy and the materials needed to sustain life, such as:

clean air
safe drinking water
nutritious food
safe places to live.

Many aspects of our environment – both built and natural environment – can impact on our health. It’s important that we interpret health issues in the wider context of our environment and where we live
