Give Blood, Get Healthy
According to the American Red Cross, less than 7 percent of eligible men donate blood, a vampiric level of stinginess. Not only is the process completely safe - new needles are used everytime - but, you gain much, much more benefits than you give.
- Your heart-attact rist may drop as a result of decreased iron levels.
- You’ll get your blood pressure checked.
- You’ll be reminded, once again, what blood type you are.
- You’ll receive free hepatitis and HIV testing, cholesterol screening, temperature and pulse readings and iron level testing.
- You can bank your own blood before a planned surgery.
- You may feel faint, but altruism makes women swoon.
