Importance of iron in women’s life
Iron is one of the most precious minerals in everyone’s life. Iron develops hemoglobin in the blood cells which is the carrier of oxygen to our internal organs.

But in 5% to 10% of women, the pain is severe enough to disrupt their life. These cramps can cause an absence in their profession. In some cases, even the kitchen declared holiday during these days. During these days women feel very insecure and irritated by their helplessness. They need extra care and nursing but it is not that practical in a nuclear family where both husband and wife will be professionals. These days not only affect their career life but also family and especially children’s life.

During pregnancy women need double iron for fetus development and also for their body, during this time iron-rich food is very compulsory.
