A Frappuccino is a coffee or creme based blended beverage. The Mocha is made with a coffee base (freeze-fried coffee, water and a frappuccino dairy mix), mocha syrup and ice. It is then blended for a short amount of time and poured into a cup. Whipped cream is added on top and mocha is drizzled over top.
In microcytic anemia, the red blood cells are usually also hypochromic, meaning that the red blood cells are paler than usual. This can be quantified as the mean corpuscular hemoglobin or mean cell hemoglobin, the amount of hemoglobin per cell; the normal value is 27-32 picograms.
Macrocytic anemia is when the red blood cell size is larger than normal, i.e.an MCV of >100. B12 deficiency is one of the common causes of macrocytic anemia. Microcytic anemia is when the red blood cells are smaller than normal, i.e. the MCV <80. When iron deficiency is diagnosed as the cause of a petientâs microcytic anemia, the most important task is to discover why the patient is iron deficient. The cause can be either poor intake or absorption of iron from the diet, or loss of iron in blood cells lost from apparent or occult bleeding.
