What are the implications of banked blood on the human body?
I've been donating blood for a while now, and I've always wondered what happens to the blood after it's been collected. I recently found out that it's stored in banks, and I'm curious to know more about the process. I've heard that banked blood can be used for transfusions, but I'm not sure what the effects are on the recipient's body.
I've been doing some research, and it seems that banked blood can undergo some changes during storage, such as a decrease in the level of certain nutrients. I'm worried that this could have negative effects on the person receiving the transfusion. I'd love to hear from someone with more knowledge on the subject.
Can anyone explain to me how the storage process affects the quality of the blood, and are there any potential risks associated with receiving banked blood? Are there any alternatives to banked blood that are being explored?
