White of Eyes (Sclera) Blue Tinted

Blue tinte whites of the eyes are a fairly specific indicator of iron deficiency anemia. Iron deficiency anemia is a common, though often over treated form of anemia. It is important to thoroughly assess you anemia by doing a follow-up blood studies.

Often a compromised digestive tract, with a tendency towards hypochlorhydria can cause a persistent anemia, because minerals and vitamins are not being absorbed properly due to the functional low HCL level in the stomach.
