Anaemia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells or their oxygen-carrying capacity is insufficient to meet physiologic needs, which vary with age, sex, attitude, smoking and pregnancy status, if any [1] Today anaemia is a big health problem of many people as it causes mortality. Major causes of anemia depend on many factors such as intake, food and its nutritional status, environment, social-economic and educational status. Besides Malaria, hookworm infestations are also one of the causes of anaemia.
