Natural Anemia Remedies When Pregnant

Many women suffer from some form of anemia during pregnancy. Leaving anemia untreated can cause its effects to intensify, which can, in turn, cause a variety of complications. Fortunately, anemia is easy to detect with a simple blood test, and most doctors require you to have one at your prenatal appointments.

While iron supplements can be a great way to make up for iron lost, they can be difficult on the stomach. Pregnant women may also suffer from morning sickness at the same time, and this can compound the adverse effects a supplement might have on the gut. Common side effects are nausea, constipation, vomiting, and headache.

For patients who’d like to explore a holistic route, Alternative DrMCare recommends a variety of solutions for treating anemia while pregnant. The protocols DrM developed include recommended supplements and supportive care options that are both natural and effective.

Healing Anemia with Nutrition

Our bodies do not make iron naturally, yet almost every human cell contains some amount of this vital nutrient. This is a clear indication that we were meant to receive this essential mineral through our diet.

Maintaining a diet with sufficient amounts of iron can help maintain an appropriate level of the mineral in your body throughout your pregnancy. Recommended foods include meat, orange juice, leafy greens, broccoli, and dried beans.

However, sometimes simple dietary changes might not be enough to keep up with the increased demand for iron pregnancy can cause. At Alternative DrMCare, we can recommend supplements to boost your iron levels when they drop too low and prevent iron deficiencies in the first place.

How We Can Help

DrM’s protocols recommend a range of supplements for maintaining iron levels in your body and treating anemia. These supplements include Hemadyn Pro, which contains chelated iron and citrus pectin. Citrus pectin contains a non-ionic form of iron your body can readily assimilate to bring iron levels back to acceptable levels quickly.

Each protocol has been tested and refined for quality assurance, and the guidelines are intended to empower people with the tools to take charge of their own health. What’s more, the Alternative DrMRCare Natural Medical Self-Care Protocols are designed to help you and your family holistically care for yourself.
