Nutritional Analysis of Human Blood
One of the things I see over and over again is "there is no nutrition in blood". Well, that is false. Utterly and completely false. Just for the fun of it, and to make it easier to visualize just what the nutritional components of blood are, here we have "nutrition facts" like seen on most food products, but for blood.
