Fun fact

[igivein]

Been to give blood this afternoon. Chatting to the staff member serving the drinks and biccies afterwards, and she told me that giving blood uses about 600 calories - at which point I accepted the mint club biscuit …
Give blood people, it’ll help your diet! 😁

Oh dear, does that mean that if you have a transfusion you could put on weight?

I suppose it’s the extra energy your body uses to make up the blood that was taken?

I think you’re covered by the fact that you’re having the transfusion because your own blood volume is seriously lacking …

Phew!
