Donating blood bad for us?

[smaltwak]

I was watching a dave palumbo video and he said that donating blood is not good for bodybuilders because we are supposed to have higher red blood cells because it will benefit us and he says he never donates blood ever because of that. What are your thoughts on it and should we really be giving blood?

I think its the other way around, the more blood you donate the better for you.

what a selfish thing to say especially right now but does not surprise me coming from him.

you have a responsibility to donate blood as the strongest and healthiest people in your community.

If you want to thicken your blood and increase your chance of heart attack and stroke 10 fold that's a great way to do it

Donating is a must for those that cycle if you plan on living a long and healthy life

Donating blood is extremely healthy for men. Especially prostate health. If you are using gear you absolutely want to donate blood. On top of those benefits, it is just a good thing to do and a way to support your community.

thicker blood is better for performance and some people actually take drugs to make it thicker but it can kill you. so you decided what's best for you.
