Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional disorders in children. The main symptoms are pale skin, loss of appetite, fatigue, weakness, difficulty concentrating and a weakened immune system. If left untreated, iron deficiency can lead to growth retardation and learning difficulties. For this reason, children’s diets should include red meat, green leafy vegetables and iron-fortified foods.
