Answer:
A blood donation occurs when a person voluntarily has blood drawn and used for transfusions and/or made into biopharmaceutical medications by a process called fractionation. Donation may be of whole blood, or of specific components directly.
Committed blood donors regularly eliminate excess iron. The Centers for Disease Control even recommends the removal of red blood cells as the preferred treatment for patients with excess iron in their blood. By reducing iron in the blood cells, blood donation can also reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
