Anemia Sign #2: Difficulty Concentrating
The human brain is arguably the most powerful organ in the animal kingdom. It is capable of vast calculations that are way beyond those of other animals. It has helped us to become the dominant species on the planet. It comes at a price, though, which is that the brain is very resource hungry.
The brain needs a lot of nutrition and oxygen if it is to operate at full effectiveness. If it doesn’t get what it needs, then it will begin to slow down and otherwise simple tasks can become difficult. With less oxygen flowing through the body, people with anemia can find it harder to keep their concentration.
