Diet for high HB 16.8 and high RDW CV
I have been diagnosed with high HB which is around 16.7 now. The rdw also is high. I have stopped smoking (this was advised by many doctors on practo as well)
I just want to know on what diet is suitable for high hemoglobin levels,although I have stopped smoking (which is around 30 days back) I still feel breathlessness and some heaviness. I have checked my ecg n 3d echo which is normal with normal ef
Pls do guide me on the appropriate diet for high hemglobin and iron content in blood.
I have undergone phlebotomy which reduced the hemglobin from 18.6 to 16.7
Is there any other way to reduce the hemglobin and does quitting smoking and alochol too reduces hemglovin levels

16.6 gm of hemoglobin is alright.Adequate water intake , quitting smoking, exercising regularly and using fresh fruits and vegetables will help you.The long term effects of smoking will take a while to settle down.Do breathing exercises regularly.
