flag Regular blood donors may have healthier blood cells and reduced risk of blood cancer, study suggests.

flag Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute found that frequent blood donors may have healthier blood cells and a reduced risk of blood cancer. flag The study analyzed blood samples from over 200 regular donors and found beneficial genetic changes in their blood stem cells, which support the production of new, non-cancerous cells. flag These changes suggest that regular donations may select for mutations that enhance blood cell fitness and possibly suppress cancerous growth. flag More research is needed to confirm these findings and explore their broader health implications.
