Food & Nutrition Your Platelets

Platelets are some of the most useful parts of your blood!  They hang around in your blood until they are needed and then jump into action.  Platelets are small, have a funny shape and are very sticky.  When you have a cut, they stick together to make a clot (which turns into a scab when it dries) and stops all your blood from leaking out! 

To find out more about how platelets help you out of sticky situations, click on Find Out More!
