Protein deficiency anaemia - what does this mean

Protein deficiency anaemia occurs when the body does not have enough protein in the diet to make enough healthy red blood cells. this can lead to a decrease in the number of red blood cells, which can cause symptoms such as fatigue, pale skin, shortness of breath, and dizziness.

What happens during the disease - protein deficiency anaemia

Protein deficiency anaemia is a condition caused by a lack of dietary protein, which can lead to a decrease in the production of red blood cells. this can be caused by inadequate dietary intake of protein, malabsorption of dietary protein, or increased demand for protein. the decrease in red blood cells leads to a decrease in hemoglobin, resulting in a decrease in oxygen-carrying capacity and the resulting anaemia.
