Abstract Anaemia is a major killer in India. Statistics reveal that every maternal death is directly due to anaemia. It affects both adults and children of both the sexes, although pregnant women and adolescent girls are most susceptible and most affected by this disease. The present study was done to develop cheapest nutritious iron rich health mix to treat and prevent anaemia. Garden cress seeds, rice flakes, bajra flour, roasted Bengal gram flour, samai, and jaggery were selected to formulate an iron rich health mix. It was prepared on four different variations (V1, V2, V3 and V4). The formulated health mix was analysed for the nutrients like iron,protein, calcium and phytic acid. The acceptability of the formulated recipes were analysed by the panel members among the four variations of health mix variation V1 was selected. It was found iron rich among the four variations. So, it was concluded that variation V1 can be supplemented to combat anaemia.
