Do not eat any blood

 

 “Do not eat any blood whether of fowl or animal “Vayikra 7:26

 

Untamed animals are also included under the term “animals” 

 

If someone ate an olive size amount of blood deliberately he deserves spiritual severance, if unintentionally he would be required to bring a sin offering.

 

Human blood is specifically forbidden by the Scribes if it left the person.

 

The blood of kosher fish and locusts are permissible.

 

 This applies in all places at all times for men and women.
