The use of a digital tool is a promising alternative to educate about the importance of health and iron deficiency anemia in children, as with the use of technology, information can reach and involve many people in an accessible and effective way. Therefore, this work proposes a prototype for a future digital tool that will be created for parents and guardians of children aged 0 to 6 years with the aim of preventing iron deficiency anemia, providing guidance on what iron deficiency anemia is, symptoms, how to prevent it, recipes for better iron consumption in childhood, in addition to informing the daily amounts of iron needed from the first years of life. To develop the prototype of the tool, it was necessary to analyze the prevalence of anemia in children from underdeveloped countries, so that detailed information could be obtained about the definition, causes, daily iron recommendations and the calculation of this intake. Therefore, the use of a digital tool to calculate daily iron intake in childhood is an innovative resource that makes it possible to prevent iron deficiency anemia in children.
