The Importance of Using PediaWell Iron Drops in Children and Infants:
The need for iron in the early stages of life is a fundamental requirement, and on the other hand, the prevalence of mental and motor disorders in individuals has its roots in iron deficiency during childhood.
Infants and children require iron for the synthesis of hemoglobin and red blood cells. When iron is not sufficiently available to cells, red blood cells become smaller and paler, leading to anemia. In such a condition, the body is unable to adequately oxygenate organs and muscles. Iron supplementation in these circumstances significantly contributes to the child’s health.
Iron is an essential element for the brain development of infants and children. Infants with iron deficiency may experience delayed growth, slower movement, restlessness, and crying without apparent reason. In children, iron deficiency can impact academic performance. Low iron levels may lead to issues with concentration, reduced attention span, and weakened academic performance, causing the child to feel tired and weak.
Iron deficiency in children:
Group of children who are exposed to iron deficiency
• Infants under 6 months who are born with low weight or prematurely.
• Infants from 6 months to one year old. Generally, iron reserves in a baby’s body are lower in the second half of the first year of life.
• Children aged 1 to 5 years who prefer solid foods over breastfeeding because breast milk alone contains very little iron, which may not meet the child’s body needs, and prolonged breastfeeding can lead to iron deficiency.
• Children aged 1 to 5 years with digestive disorders such as celiac disease, which occurs due to the malabsorption of nutrients from the intestine.
Symptoms of iron deficiency in children may vary depending on the severity of the deficiency. Some common symptoms of iron deficiency in children include:
1. Excessive fatigue and lethargy
2. Decreased concentration and attention
3. Headaches
4. weakened immune system and increased risk of infections
5. Shortness of breath
6. Insomnia
7. Decreased appetite
8. Abdominal pain and diarrhea
9. Changes in the child’s behavior, such as loss of appetite or reluctance to play

Ingredients:
Iron: Iron is an essential mineral for the growth and development of children, naturally obtained from certain foods. This mineral is particularly important for growing children, aiding in oxygen delivery to tissues and organs, and assisting in the production of certain hormones. When the body needs iron, it initially starts using existing reserves. If the iron level in the body decreases, the hemoglobin levels in the blood and then red blood cells will also decrease, ultimately leading to iron deficiency. Statistics indicate that iron deficiency is highly prevalent among infants and young children in developed countries. Research suggests that among various forms of iron, ferrous sulfate exhibits the highest effectiveness.
