one of the following: date of birth,

It is recommended that donors eat
plenty of iron-rich foods such as
fresh fruits and vegetables and low-

help ensure that the donor’s blood
iron level is at an acceptable dona-
tion level. Also, plenty of non-alco-

following donating blood.
Donors are also encouraged to ask
about signing an organ/tissue card.
