Red Blood Cells

Blood ‘Red Gold’ is a lifesaving liquid organ. The unique red blood cells (RBCs) are produced by a process called erythropoiesis that takes around 8 days and circulate for 120 days. In modern science the RBCs life span was reported only 100 years ago. Two Nobel prizes were awarded for studies on RBCs; the first ‘1930’ for discovering the ABO blood groups and the second ‘2003’ for detecting the mysterious RBCs water channels. More than 1400 years ago the Holy Qur’an mentioned that a period of 4 lunar months and 10 nights (128 days) are mandatory for widows to wait before restarting a new healthier life. Readers will take a worthy idea on the structure properties formation life span functions antigen presentations gender differences and diseases of RBCs. This book throws light on this speculation and on other newly revealed numerical and linguistic miracles of the Holy Qur’an. It further corroborates the precision of the lunar calendar and the creation of Eve from Adam’s rib. The first edition was published in Belgium-2015; this second edition provides additional insights for a readily digest of this novel hypothesis. Future explorations may expose more clues of this mystery.
