How Much Blood Do You Have in Your Body?
Answer:
Blood makes up about one twelfth of the weight of the body.
In an average women, the volume of blood is 4-5 litres. In a typical man, the volume is 5-6 litres.
At any one moment, only 1/20th of the body’s blood is in the capillaries. Most, around three-quarters, is in the veins.
