The Benefits of Donating Blood
On this occasion we will not stick to the benefits to the recipient, because LIFE is the answer. But, for those who donate, what are the benefits? When I heard that donating blood decreases, and really, the chances that a person has heart problems, I felt compelled to talk about it here. Yes, because there are many people selling health there who does not care one bit with those who need transfusion, or by an accident or surgery, or chemotherapy? And what is more striking (as is the nature perfect!), a single blood bag is capable of saving lives up to three, because the components are separately used.
So, here are some benefits for those who need a reason to help save lives and not consider it (save lives) the real reason:
- Donating blood helps prevent cardiovascular problems;
Who gives, receives the results of tests such as hepatitis B and C, syphilis, HIV, HTLV I and II and Changes disease, a form of check-up often;
- On the day of donation, the donor can get a certificate and not working that day;
Some Brazilian states still grant benefits to blood donors, such as half price in cinemas, theaters and shows, discounts on public procurement and an extra day of vacation.
The only impediments to donate are:
- Pregnancy
- Flu
- Tattoo or piercing without hygienic conditions for less than one year
- Risk behavior for sexually transmitted diseases;
- A man or woman with a history of blood-borne diseases.
If you do not fit in the group above, exactly what is waiting?
Just be between 18 and 65, weigh at least 50kg and be in good health. I, for example, donate 3 in three months. Many of these times, for pride or need, but donate anyway, because I did that before her illness and I think it’s the least I can do, since I am healthy.
And if you’re already a blood donor, enjoy one of his trips to the Blood Bank and become a marrow donor. It’s very simple! In addition to the blood bag, they will take you more 5ml blood for tests, and you need to fill out a registration form.

“Normally men should not have a waist over 90 inches daro. More so many piles of fat in the abdominal cavity,” said Yunir.
Yunir continued, a pile of fat will produce a hormone that suppresses testosterone. Each testis into production more quickly, because testosterone is broken down directly by the hormone or hormones adipositokin of abdominal fat. If the hormone testosterone in the body is less, affect the body more easily fatigue, reduced activity, until there is aging more quickly.
Then in the obese men, testosterone can be decreased by 30-40 percent, if coupled with the illness suffered, the risk will increase.
“Compensation of testosterone deficiency, the testes produce more hormone driven. And cause testicular size becomes larger, because it works harder,” said Yunir.
