Blood donation is an important part of the life. If a person is quite healthy and fit and in the age between 18 to 65 can easily donate the blood to save the life of the needy person. As we all know that human body contains at least 5 to 7 liters of blood by body weight in the body so if a person donates one unit (350 ml) blood once or twice in a year it will not harm the person and body will soon recover it. The donated blood is stored in the blood bank for further use and this blood of the single person can save the life of three persons at a time because blood has three components RBC, Plasma and Platelets. These three components can be transfuse to three separate persons to save their lives.
