What Are The Common Causes Of Anemia And Belly Fat?

I’ve been discussing belly fat and a number of other issues with a friend who is also anemic. My own personal opinion and previous experiences tell me that her docs are looking in the wrong areas. Can you tell me (1) the most common reasons for anemia and (2) the most common reasons for belly fat.
