To increase hemoglobin tablets

Our blood contains many different and useful substances, but hemoglobin makes it really red. It is produced by red blood cells and is part of the red blood balls. And hemoglobin contains proteins - globins, as well as iron-containing elements - hemes, hence its name. Hemoglobin is responsible for saturating the blood with oxygen. Lowering its level in the first place disrupts the immune system, and then even a mild cold can be a source of serious complications.
