Blood Donation
We believe in the health benefits of Blood Donation- not just for the recipient, but for the donor as well. Regular blood donation is associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease- leaving out the fact that the practice can help save lives. Thanks to our partners in the Philippine Red Cross, we've encouraged and helped hold regular blood donation activities across Manila.
According to St. Luke's Medical Center, the practice can:
-
Reduce blood viscosity, allowing to circulate more freely throughout your body and improve oxygen circulation
-
Uses up energy to replace lost blood cells, burning around 600 calories as it does so
​
-
Lowers iron levels, regulating nutrients and reducing the risk of heart disease
