Common Risk Factors

  • Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] may be occupational, environmental, genetic, and viral.
  • Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] include:
    • [Risk factor 1]
    • [Risk factor 2]
    • [Risk factor 3]

Less Common Risk Factors

  • Less common risk factors in the development of [disease name] include:
    • [Risk factor 1]
    • [Risk factor 2]
    • [Risk factor 3]

Risk Factors

  • The risk of developing iron deficiency anemia is increased in:
  • Infants younger than 12 months who drink cow's milk rather than breast milk or iron-fortified formula
  • Young children who drink a lot of cow's milk rather than eating foods that supply the body with more iron
  • Iron deficiency anemia most commonly affects babies 9 - 24 months old. All babies should have a screening test for iron deficiency at this age. Babies born prematurely may need to be tested earlier.
