Staff Sgt. James Madnick enjoys a pastry after making a donation during a blood drive on Aug. 6, 2014, at Sven's Den on Grand Forks Air Force Base, N.D.  Pastries and juice, which are rich in sugar help raise blood sugar-levels after a blood donation, which medical experts say help blood donors lessen the chances of experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, drowsiness or dizziness.  A hearty meal, especially one rich in iron along with plenty of water is also recommended before making a blood donation. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Luis Loza Gutierrez)
