One key area of our research is Hematocrit level and its effect on your health. We believe that your health is benefited when your hematocrit is raised to a level greater than 30% as soon as possible, and that the longer your hematocrit is kept above 33% the better chance you have of living a longer life. We have also found that when your hematocrit is kept above 33% the chance of you being hospitalized decreases, and the length of your stays in the hospital will most likely be shorter. More...
