*Iron deficiency anemia is more common in regions where meat is consumed in small quantities.


==Risk Factors==
===Developed Countries===
*The risk of developing iron deficiency anemia is increased in:
:*'''Infants younger than 12 months''' who drink cow's milk rather than breast milk or iron-fortified formula
:*Young children who '''drink a lot of cow's milk''' rather than eating foods that supply the body with more iron
*Iron deficiency anemia most commonly affects babies '''9 - 24 months old.''' All babies should have a screening test for iron deficiency at this age. Babies born prematurely may need to be tested earlier.

  • Older individuals are more commonly affected.
  • Children aged 6 months to 24 months are also at risk.
