Globally Anemia is a serious health problem among preschool-age children, school-age children, pregnant and non-pregnant women, men, and elderly, that affects populations of both developed as well as developing countries. Iron-deficiency is the most common disorder which causes anemia, nutritional disorders, and hemoglobinopathies are also responsible for anemia. Intestinal worm infections are the most common infections globally and affect impoverished and underprivileged communities. Mostly infection-causing species are roundworm (Ascaris lumbricoides), whipworm (Trichuris trichiura), and hookworms (Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale). Worm infection can cause anemia, malnourishment, impaired mental and physical development and may cause serious threats to children’s health, education and productivity.
