Lucky bastard. I'm not only unable to donate, but I have to get blood derivatives injected. I'm Plastic Person, be sad for me.

What about those who sell their seeds regularly?

.A friend used to donate blood when he had sex with a random girl, he said that if he contracted HIV, they would contact him.

That's pretty bad
- Also wouldn't work.
  Interesting that someone would downvote that.

Medieval-style bloodletting...

Donating my microplastics to people in need.

Does ejaculation remove micro plastics? Asking for a friend.

Bad news: Todays needles are coated in PFAS to make punctions more painless.

That's kinda misleading though. Large molecule PFAS are harmless to us (Teflon for example). It's the small molecule PFAS are dangerous and those aren't really used for any kind of non-stick surfaces.
- What are they used for
- I've never really looked into this, do you have any good sources you recommend looking at?
As someone who takes a weekly shot, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME 😭
Uuugh I don’t want to switch to daily gel or patches, it’s such a pain in the ass.
- Unfortunately no. Afaik even regular exposition is (for now) considered relatively harmless, with medical professionals bearing the highest risk.
- I thought the injection would be the one that is a pain in the ass 🤔
whose fucking goddamn idea was that

I’m removing so much plastic, this will make me healthy sips coke from bottle

sips coke from bottle
I prefer to snort it but you do you
- Cocaine turns me into a new man.
  The trouble is that he wants a line too!
Could be glass bottle.
- There was an article posted recently about those having a surprising amount of microplastics in them as well. It turns out the production line machinery scratches the bottle cap and microscopic fragments make their way into the drink.

I'm doing the same, but for PFAS

Wait, would this actually work?

Yea it really does. It's the only way we know to get rid of plastic in blood
- Keeping in mind that you're getting rid of the plastic in your blood by getting rid of her blood
- Some recent study also found that mucilaginous fiber binds with PFAS the same way that it binds with cholesterol to keep the body from absorbing it. PFAS already in your system is believed to be reintroduced to your digestive system through bile excretion, some binds with the fiber and leaves your system, the rest is absorbed.
  If you don’t eat a lot of food with mucilage, the main ingredient in Metamucil has mucilaginous fiber, as the name suggests.
  The study author in the interview I read emphasized it wasn’t like ‘take fiber for a few months and PFAS is all gone,’ she and her husband just incorporated a mucilage supplement into their diets because of how prevalent it is in the environment.
- Does this also mean woman after their period have less plastic?
- how do i know how much plastic is in my blood?
Only if your exposure in the future is less than in the past. Otherwise it will just go back up again. And considering plastic use is going up, you would have to use air filters and avoid micro plastics as much as possible.
- so it works, because in any case there will be less than otherwise would be
I does! It also reduced heavy metal levels.
Thankfully the bad type that shouldn't be your blood, and not the cool type that should be playing on your speakers.

If human blood has plastics at a rate of ~ 1.6 µg/mL and a typical volume of blood donated during a whole blood donation is approximately 470-500 mL you're looking at a reduction in plastics of a cool .0005 grams per donation. That's 1/40th of a grain of rice!

Don't think of it like that, think of it as 10% of your total blood plastic!
I wonder if doing plasma instead of whole blood is better or worse. Does microplastic stay behind or go back in?
- Damn apparently giving plasma might be better according to this small study of aussie firefighters
So you gotta do a full flush when you donate. Got it.
Thats why i donate 3 times a day
- Too inefficient, I'm just going to pump it all out and start again with fresh blood.
why would you use absolute values for something measured in such small quantities? show us the percentage that comes out. or the fraction of the grain of rice associated with kidney / liver damage
Baby steps

whatever it takes to get you to donate

And PFAS!

no joke!

So everybody wins?

Well, not the person in need that's getting transfusions of blood filled with microplastics.
- I mean the person that is taking in the blood has already lost blood and the plastic within as a prerequisite. So, at the end, they should stay within the same amount of blood plastic as before.
