How much blood is in an average human body?

Blood makes up about 7% of your body's weight. The average adult has 10 pints of blood in his or her body. One unit of blood is roughly the equivalent of one pint. This proportion is much greater in children, and slightly different in men and women. Men, on average, have 8 to 10 pints, while women have 5 to 8 pints. That is just over a gallon or 4 - 5 liters for men and slightly less for women. Larger people and populations can go much higher, up to 8-12 pints depending on the size of the person.

The human body can produce about 2 million red blood cells per second, equating to about 1.5 million red blood cells per drop of blood. However, the production of a pint of blood (which contains over 200 trillion red blood cells) would take several days to weeks as the body constantly replenishes its blood supply.
