According to the World Health Organization, 25% of the world's population suffers from anemia, generally linked to poor eating habits or genetics. However, it can also have other causes such as chronic diseases (cancer, Crohn's disease and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, sickle cell disease). Anemia is a disease that should be taken seriously. Do we need to go back to prehistory to better understand its mechanisms? What are the solutions to deal with deficiencies?
