11. Lower Iron Levels
• Blood donation is an excellent way to
get rid of excess iron.
• Excess iron in the body can stimulate
the formation of free radicals, which
are responsible for causing damage to
body cells and tissues.
12. Cont.
• Free radicals are also associated with many
diseases like heart diseases and cancer.
• Iron is involved in the oxidation of cholesterol
and this process is believed to be detrimental for
the arteries.
• Increases blood iron level favors this process of
cholesterol oxidation and thus leads to heart
disease.
13. Reduce Heart Attack Risk
• Florida Blood Services reports that regular
blood donors who donate regularly over years
have an 88 percent lower risk of heart attacks
and a 33 percent lower risk of any severe
cardiovascular event, such as a stroke.
14. Reduce Cancer Risk
• According to the Miller-Keystone Blood
Center, consistent blood donation is
associated with lowered risks for cancers
including liver, lung, colon, stomach and
throat cancers.
• Risk levels dropped in correlation with how
often participants donated blood.
15. Replenish Blood
• Replenish your blood supply regularly.
• Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
reports that when you donate blood, your
body replaces the blood volume within 48
hours of donation, and all of the red blood
cells you lose during donation are completely
replaced within four to 8 weeks.
16. Invigorated feeling in elderly people
• It has been mentioned in various sites though
not proved that elderly people in good health
have reported feeling invigorated or reenergized
by giving blood on a regular basis.
