What Is the Normal MCV Range and How Can Ayurveda Help in Improving It? - #14975
During my recent blood test, I was told that my MCV (Mean Corpuscular Volume) is lower than the normal range, which means my red blood cells are smaller than usual. The doctor explained that this could be a sign of iron deficiency or other conditions related to anemia. I’ve been prescribed iron supplements to address the issue, but I’m also looking for natural ways to improve my MCV levels without relying too much on synthetic medications. Can Ayurveda offer any herbs or remedies that can help improve my MCV and support healthy red blood cell production? I’ve heard that iron-rich herbs like Ashwagandha, Shatavari, and Triphala are good for boosting energy and supporting blood health—could they help me improve my MCV levels? Additionally, I’m curious about Ayurvedic dietary recommendations for someone with low MCV. Are there specific foods or herbs in Ayurveda that can help increase iron absorption and improve overall red blood cell health? Has anyone here had low MCV and used Ayurvedic treatments to help improve their blood health? What herbs, foods, or practices worked best for you in increasing MCV and restoring energy levels?
