A member asked:

Does a concentrated amount of blood help build your muscle fibers?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not sure.: Not sure what you mean. Your blood is the concentration it is. And it is that way for good reason. It is optimized. You really can't change concentration unless you really dehydrate yourself or get a transfusion a la lance armstrong blood doping.
