Anaemia is among the most important public health problems facing many developing countries. In fact it is one of the deficiency diseases which affect varying sections of population of both the developed and developing countries of the world. In several extensive surveys from all over the world the prevalence of anaemia has been reported to vary from 10 per cent to 50 per cent or even more and most of the cases have been ascribed to iron and other nutrient deficiencies, hence nutritional in origin.
