Under Project Sanjivani, school girls and women are tested for HB, Hemoglobin. Good health can be maintained only if your HB ratio is normal. This test is done by taking a single drop of blood and using a digital HB machine which instantly detects the HB percentage. If HB is less than normal range then consultation is given accordingly.
It is also advised to include dietary advice such as jaggery, green vegetables, beetroot, kharik, dates etc. in daily life. If HB is found to be low, communication with them is done and solutions are suggested. It is recommended to take deworming pill twice a year at six month intervals. The importance of hand wash is also mentioned.
