Hemoglobin Levels

Hemoglobin helps you stay active by transporting oxygen through your bloodstream around your body and by removing poisonous carbon dioxide. Normal Hemoglobin levels are very important and if you do not have Normal Hemoglobin levels then you will be advised some medication by your family doctor or he or she may refer you to a Anemia specialist Doctor. There are different levels of normal based on a person's gender, age and whether or not you are pregnant. The best way to determine your level is through a blood test your doctor administers.
If your physician will notice that you have signs and symptoms of Anemia he will recommend you the blood tests for Anemia. A hemoglobin test is typically ordered as part of a complete blood cell (CBC) count.
Anemia is a very common but much ignored health problem. A person with anemia will feel tired and weak. That's because the body's tissues are not getting enough oxygen.



 Low hemoglobin levels can be caused by a poor diet. Consuming foods rich in iron, vitamin B-12 and folate will help increase your hemoglobin levels.The best sources of nutrition are from animal and plant sources, such as meat, poultry, liver, fish, seafood and vegetables.Because hemoglobin is a complex molecule requiring a constant supply of micronutrients, small changes in your diet and exercise habit can have beneficial or harmful effects on hemoglobin production.
