It is said that fat people get fatter when they donate blood. Is that so?

The reason why people get fat is usually because of the imbalance between food absorption and consumption. If the digestive system has a strong absorption capacity and lacks proper exercise, the excess energy will be converted into fat and accumulated under the skin, which will thicken the subcutaneous fat layer and cause obesity.

Some people gain weight after donating blood, which seems to have a tendency to get fat, mistakenly thinking that getting fat is caused by donating blood. In fact, this idea and statement is very unscientific. After donating blood, if you pay too much attention to rest and nutrition, the energy you consume will greatly exceed the energy you consume, which will help your body gain weight. This is an understandable normal phenomenon. As long as you pay attention to diet regulation, strengthen activities and exercise, you can gradually return to normal weight.
