authority conferred on them by the State government.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Nature of Powers:<\/strong> The powers of SEMs are intended to allow authorities to intervene when there

in which the number of red blood cells or the haemoglobin concentration within them is lower than normal.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It mainly affects women and children.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Causes: <\/strong>Anaemia can be caused by poor nutrition, infections, chronic diseases, heavy menstruation, pregnancy issues and family history.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It is often caused by a lack of iron in the blood.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It occurs when there isn\u2019t enough haemoglobin in the body to carry oxygen to the organs and tissues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Affects:\u00a0 <\/strong>In severe cases, anaemia can cause poor cognitive and motor development in children.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It can also cause problems for pregnant women and their babies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Treatment<\/strong>: Treatment and prevention of anaemia varies depending on aetiology.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A well-rounded diet rich in iron, folate, vitamin B12, vitamin A and other important nutrients, plus supplements when advised by a skilled healthcare provider, can treat it.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prevention also includes controlling infections such as malaria and parasitic worms, excellent hygiene, vaccinations and management of chronic disorders.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>India\u2019s Steps:<\/strong> The Government of India\u2019s 7X7X7 Anaemia Mukt Bharat (AMB) strategy, which was launched recently, rightly recognises the multifactorial nature of anaemia through a comprehensive approach spanning prevention, screening, treatment, dietary diversification and behaviour change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Source
