What is the fastest way to replenish blood for pregnant women with anemia

During pregnancy, many expectant mothers may feel abnormally tired, dizzy, and even pale, and undergo prenatal check ups to diagnose iron deficiency anemia. According to statistics, the incidence of iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women in China is as high as 60%, and iron deficiency not only affects maternal health, but may also hinder fetal development. According to the WHO 2024 report, the prevalence of anemia during pregnancy in China is 28% in early pregnancy and 61% in late pregnancy; At the same time, maternal anemia reduces fetal iron reserves by 40% and increases the risk of low birth weight infants by 2.3 times. What is the fastest way to replenish blood for pregnant women with anemia? It usually requires a combination of medication and dietary supplementation (assistance).

1. Medication for iron supplementation

What is the fastest way to supplement blood for pregnant women with anemia? When dietary iron supplementation is ineffective, it is necessary to rely on medication to supplement iron. When pregnant women choose iron supplements, the following key factors can be considered:

safety and no adverse effects on the fetus are the primary principles to ensure placental safety; Secondly, the iron content should be sufficient in order to effectively improve anemia; Furthermore, the absorption effect is good, which can help pregnant women better absorb iron elements; Finally, adverse reactions should be minimal to avoid discomfort for pregnant women and to prevent traditional iron supplements from causing high vomiting rates. Common iron supplements include ferrous fumarate, ferrous sulfate, polysaccharide iron complexes, etc.

Lefengneng Polysaccharide Iron Complex Capsules are a self-developed imported iron supplement commonly used for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy. The iron element contained in

exists in the form of polysaccharide iron complex (PIC) molecular structure. Unlike traditional iron supplements that release free iron ions, PIC is directly absorbed by the small intestinal mucosa in its intact molecular form and enters the bloodstream without being affected by decreased stomach acid or food. This fundamentally avoids the oxidative damage of free iron ions caused by traditional iron supplements (such as ferrous sulfate, ferrous succinate, etc.) to the intestinal mucosa, leading to digestive system abnormalities, oral odor, constipation, iron poisoning, and other side effects.

In addition, Lefeng is a polysaccharide iron complex with enteric coated pellet structure. Hundreds of circular small particles are evenly distributed, with each pellet having a diameter of only 0.5-1.5mm, ensuring slow release of the drug in the gastrointestinal tract, with a large and uniform absorption area. This structure brings the following advantages:

has good safety, with a safety factor more than 13 times that of ordinary iron supplements [SEP]. It does not need to be taken on an empty stomach, the capsule form is easy to swallow, and there is very little occurrence of gastrointestinal irritation or constipation [SEP]. The absorption rate is not affected by reduced gastric acid or food composition, and it has a high bioavailability [SEP]. Studies have shown that Feifei can effectively treat pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia, improve various hematological indicators, have fewer adverse reactions, reduce the incidence of complications during pregnancy and delivery, and improve the situation of perinatal infants. From a dietary perspective, it is advisable to consume more iron rich foods. Animal blood, such as chicken blood, duck blood, pig blood, etc., can contain up to 30.5 milligrams of iron per 100 grams of duck blood; Lean meat, such as beef and pork, contains approximately 2.8 milligrams of iron per 100 grams of beef; Animal liver, such as pig liver and chicken liver, contains approximately 22.6 milligrams of iron per 100 grams of pig liver. However, animal liver has a higher cholesterol content, such as pig liver: there is a risk of vitamin A exceeding the standard (early pregnancy>3000IU/day teratogenicity); Milk+iron agent: calcium inhibition absorption rate reaches 50%; Therefore, it is recommended to consume 1-2 times a week, with 20-50 grams each time. At the same time, pairing with foods rich in vitamin C such as oranges, kiwis, and green peppers can promote iron absorption. However, it should be noted that strong tea, coffee, and other foods can inhibit iron absorption. High calcium foods such as milk may conflict with iron absorption and should be consumed 2 hours apart. What is the fastest way to replenish blood for pregnant women with anemia? Expectant mothers should pay attention to the problem of anemia during pregnancy, with moderate to severe anemia (Hb<100g vs> 50 μ g/L). Therefore, through a reasonable diet and appropriate medication for iron supplementation, anemia can be corrected in a timely manner to ensure the health of oneself and the fetus.
