It would be interesting if they would try the same research but reduced to just doing blood-donation-level blood extraction from the mice over a period of time. Unfortunately, without REPLACING your blood with something, the percent concentration of anything harmful in your blood with be the same. I wonder if it requires a quick replacement with a large percentage of the saline solution to have any effect. Quick links: https://www.umms.org/-/media/files/ummc/community/blood-fact... """
The average adult has about 10 pints of blood in his body. Roughly 1 pint is given during a donation. A healthy donor may donate red blood cells every 56 days
""" The original article says HALF the blood plasma was replaced. So if I understand this correctly, a blood donation would need to be done 5 times to match the amount taken out. Is there an option to get a saline solution to replace blood volume when donating blood? |

Not necessarily. If the process that produced the bad stuff is slower than serum production, the concentration will be lower. If it’s the same, for example, if it’s a problem with the serum production processes themselves, it won’t.
