Also supplement with some folate(not folic acid).
What does his diet look like? Id ensure he eats high nutrient dense foods and enough protein daily.
red meat regularly, eggs, other proteins too.
Also liver and or shellfish once per week as those have super high nutrient density including iron.
Milk or yoghurt too if milk products isnt an issue.
