We shouldn’t give away healthcare. I should buy mine, you should buy yours. Same with rent, same with food, same with financial aid for students. Taking money from one private citizen and giving it to others is not capitalistic or democrati…

A: Hope you can get your answers in the following link.Plasma has many functions, but donating is not bad. Your body eventually replaces the gap. But I am not sure about the time interval between two donations.I am a medical doctor & I would like to advice you to consult your physician (Internist/hematologist) if you suspect some thing fishy about the company (involved in collection).And, I respectfully disagree with some aspects of the other answer(by Kumorifo). Plasma is never just water, it contains several proteins each of them has function & that’s why they collect it. (Nobody will collect water from human body. Simple water is available in several ways!)For Blood donation you need longer gaps (4-6 months), but for plasma donation it may be shorter.And yes, the feelings (little weak, dizzy, thirsty) about donation is right. But they usually recover soon. Take fluids/drinks after donation.
