A large no of adolescent girls suffer from anaemia in India'.Development of what 3 values can help to resolve this problem.

  1. Education - Girls and her family should be educated about the importance of good nutrition and ill-effects of malnutrition. Anaemia or any other malnutrition related diseases are bad for any individual as well as national economy. Nutritional education, in present scenario, should be provided to adolescent girls also so that they do not skip their meals in order to have slim figure. 
    2. Equality - Girls should be treated as equals to good nutritional diet. Girls have equal right to good food as boys have.
 

    3. Social awareness
       i. It should be made aware socially that girls also need good nutritional diet especially during adolescent age as they have to         bear and nurture child in near future.
 
     ii. Anaemia is also being attached with large families, poor sanitation, low socioeconomic status, poor nutritional status and            higher parasitic infection. Therefore such conditions should be taken care of.
