Ep 11 | What Happens When Blood Comes from mRNA Donors? A Pharmacist’s Insight


Listen Later

What happens when donated blood contains synthetic mRNA? And what options exist for those who’ve chosen to opt out of mRNA-based products?

In this eye-opening episode, Alexandra interviews pharmacist Liz James, founder of Blessed by His Blood, to explore what’s currently known—and unknown—about mRNA technology, blood transfusions, and biologic medications. With decades of experience in infertility, autoimmune diseases, rare conditions, and oncology, Liz brings both scientific insight and personal conviction to the conversation.

They discuss how mRNA works in the body, the lack of long-term data, and the potential presence of mRNA in donated blood and plasma-derived products. Learn why these issues matter for informed consent, especially in emergencies, childbirth, or surgery. You’ll also hear about lesser-known solutions like cell saver technology, how to plan ahead with your hospital, and how to build a network for mRNA-free blood donations.

Whether you're new to these questions or already researching safe alternatives, this episode offers practical guidance and thoughtful insights to help you make well-considered medical decisions.

Topics Covered:

  • How mRNA technology differs from traditional vaccines and medications
  • What’s currently known about mRNA persistence in the body
  • Blood safety, donor labeling, and FDA testing limitations
  • Biologics and blood-derived products in medicine and cosmetics
  • Emergency preparedness, cell saver technology, and birth plans
  • How to connect with Blessed by His Blood for mRNA-free blood support
