<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.I am addicted of eating raw rice and my haemoglobin level has reached to 5.6 plz help me to leave this habit and suggest me to recover my haemoglobin level  <response>: Hello, eating rice wont lower your hematocrit. Eating ONLY rice will. You need to have a balanced diet. You can include rice in most meals, but you need a variety in your diet. Youll also need investigation for the reason of your anemia. Some basic tests would include ferritin levels, B12 vitamin levels and folic acid levels. Of course a complete blood count is essential. Depending on whats missing if any youll need supplementation and a change in your diet. I hope Ive helped! Kind Regards!
