BLOODDOPING
Blood doping
Blood doping is the practice of boosting the number of red blood cells in the bloodstream in order to enhance athletic performance. Because such blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the muscles, a higher concentration in the blood can improve an athlete’s aerobic capacity and endurance. Many methods of blood doping are illegal, particularly in professional sport.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Blood doping
