Dr. Baliga's 'Got Knowledge Doc?' PODKASTS

Marcus Aurelius (121–180 CE), a Roman emperor and prominent Stoic philosopher, ruled from 161 to 180 CE. As the last of the Five Good Emperors, his reign marked the end of the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace in the Roman Empire. Known for his military campaigns against Parthians and Germanic tribes, he also endured the devastating Antonine Plague.

πŸ”¬ Anemia & Folate: Key Insights

 

🩸 Anemia is primarily caused by iron deficiency in the U.S., especially in pregnancy (30% prevalence).

πŸ“Š NHANES data shows high iron deficiency in young females (up to 77.5% at ferritin <50 ΞΌg/L).

⚠️ Causes include heavy menstrual loss, increased pregnancy needs, and low dietary heme iron.

πŸ’Š Iron supplements (18 mg/day) help, but >45 mg/day may cause nausea & constipation.

πŸ‘Ά Maternal iron status affects infant birth weight, and delayed cord clamping improves newborn iron stores.

🌍 In low-income countries, anemia is also linked to malaria, parasites, and hemoglobinopathies.

🍞 Folic acid fortification since 1998 has reduced neural-tube defects, making folate deficiency rare in the U.S.
