Hey

There's a Canadian Blood Services blood donation drive tomorrow.

I am a vegetarian. Would I be able to give blood? I am just worried about iron, zinc and b12 contents (ie with giving and with also having nothing left over)...which probably are pretty low.

Thanks.

Have a look through this: http://blood.ca/centreapps/internet/...E_Can_I_Donate

Looks like they you can go to donate and they'll do a test for those things to clear you. So you can try and if you're not eligible they'll let you know.

Why would anyone want a vegetarian's blood?
