Young blood transfusion refers to transfusing blood specifically from a young person into an older one with the intention of creating a health benefit.[1] The efficacy and safety of young blood transfusions for anti-aging purposes remain a subject of debate in the scientific community, with limited clinical evidence in humans.[1][2][3] There are also concerns of harm.[3] While some preclinical studies on animals suggest potential benefits, there is a lack of robust clinical evidence to support its use in humans.[4][5][6][7][8][9] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, in 2019, cautioned "consumers against receiving young donor plasma infusions" stating that they are an "unproven treatment".[3]
