Doesn't really seem like they'll get rid of what's already in the bloodstream and no real mention of safety yet, but it looks promising.
Time to start donating blood regularly. Someone else will get plastics sure, but they'll need the blood for more pressing reasons.
I wish I was not a needlephobe as there is some indication it can be good for you the same way things that encourage your old cells to die (senolytics) are good.
Fasting is a good way to achieve that.
But as far as donating goes, there may be a day you might be the recipient of much needed blood donations.
Had a lady need 12 bags of blood after almost exsanguinating following a really complicated delivery (both survived). She never gave blood before due to fear of needles, but now is a regular blood donor because of the importance of it. She told me to not wait and just start giving.
