Iron-deficiency anemia is associated with poverty and malnutrition and is most common in Afri-can American, Hispanic American, and Native American families. A child with allergies to milk and nuts may have low intakes of calcium, but would probably not have low intakes of iron. Working parents and eating food away from home are not known to be related to iron-deficiency anemia.
