If the scout can demonstrate the he can use a tool safely and correctly then he should be allowed to use it. I grew up using a welder when I was 12 and all sorts of saws and drills and even cutting torches by age 10.
Eat foods rich in Vitamin B-6: Foods with vitamin B-6 have a number of benefits after you give blood. Your body needs the vitamin to build healthy blood cells and it helps the body break down proteins. Because proteins contain many of the nutrients you need after giving blood, eating vitamin B-6 foods can be helpful.
Fatty foods can affect the tests which will be done on your blood. Because of the excess fat in your blood, your donation canât be tested for infectious diseases and the blood will not be used for transfusion. Eat a healthy meal before your donation. Eating will keep your blood sugar levels stable, helping you to feel better after you have donated. Diet after donating Blood: Drinking plenty of liquids is very important just after giving blood, which begins to replace the fluid you just lost. You need to continue drinking plenty of fluids for the next 24 to 48 hours. It will help prevent low blood pressure. Eat foods rich in Folic Acid: Your body uses Folate, also known as B-9, folic acid or folacin, to manufacture new red blood cells. This helps to replace blood cells lost during donation.
