Wait, is this true? Should we do daily bloodletting into the toilet to lose weight? Or are we counting the blood as calories.. since it technically is?

The only problem is, that it takes your body 1-2 months to rebuild the lost blood cells. So, daily bloodletting will definitely cause weight loss, but probably more permanently than you're intending. ☠️

General blood donations do use that delay, but just plasma replenishes much faster. I don't think either is good at making you lose weight. It's basically dehydrating yourself.

Yes, it was a joke, please don't take health advice from memes and don't try to loose weight by donating blood. While it allegedly has some health benefits, your main motivation should be to help people who need the blood.
