What Happens When You Donate Blood - Study Shows

 A recent study demonstrated that donors can also benefit from blood donation. Donating blood on a regular basis can reduce the amount of toxic chemicals that remain in your bloodstream. The levels of some harmful synthetic chemical compounds known as "forever chemicals" or PFAS, which are a global health concern, can be reduced through regular blood donation.


PFAS or "per-and poly-fluorinated alkyl substances" are found in like manner family articles, for example, non-stick skillet, mess or water-safe materials as well as paints, covers and garments.



They are determined in the climate and can gather in our bodies over the long haul. They've been linked to a lot of bad things that can happen to your health. Historically, firefighters have been exposed to firefighting foams with high levels of PFAS.


Regular donations of blood and plasma over a 12-month period significantly reduced levels of PFAS perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a commonly found toxic chemical, in the blood of 285 firefighters, according to the study.


Plasma donations were more effective and resulted in a 30% decrease in PFAS levels, whereas regular blood and plasma donations were equally effective. It's possible that PFAS are bound to proteins that are mostly found in serum, which is why blood or plasma donation results in lower levels of PFAS.



Fats are bound to numerous other organic pollutants. Plasma PFAS fixations are additionally twice higher than blood PFAS focuses, which could make plasma gift more productive.
