Nutritional anemia is one of the most prevalent pediatric health problems worldwide, particularly in developing countries. Iron deficiency remains the leading cause, though deficiencies of folic acid, vitamin B12, and other micronutrients also contribute. This article reviews the clinical characteristics, diagnostic methods, and management approaches for nutritional anemia in children. Findings highlight the importance of early detection, dietary interventions, supplementation, and preventive strategies in reducing the burden of childhood anemia.
