Benefits of blood donation
- Saves Lives
One blood donation can save up to 3 lives.
Hospitals need blood for accidents, surgeries, cancer patients, and pregnant women.
- Good for Your Health
Helps your body make new and fresh blood cells.
Maintains good blood flow and reduces risk of heart issues in some people.
- Free Health Check
Before donating, you get a mini health test (blood pressure, pulse, hemoglobin, etc.).
Sometimes diseases like HIV, Hepatitis, and others are checked too.
- Reduces Iron Overload
If someone has high iron levels in the blood, donating can help bring it to normal.
- Burns Calories
You burn around 450–650 calories per donation (not a weight loss method, but still helpful).
- Makes You Feel Good
You feel happy and proud knowing you helped save a life.
Improves mental well-being.
- Supports Community
Regular donors help maintain blood banks so hospitals never run out of blood.
