Naga Munchetty labelled a 'life saver' after posting honest video from hospital bed

Naga Munchetty has been dubbed a 'life saver' after posting a candid video from her hospital bed.

The BBC Breakfast host has been showered with praise from adoring fans after she filmed herself donating blood while shaking in fear.

In the video, Naga encourages her followers to do all they can do donate blood to those in need.

Although she was terrified before doing the good deed, Naga said that by 'clenching her bum' and 'taking deep breaths' she managed to get through it.

"Just done this @givebloodnhs with one of favourite blood takers @willflanders and a record time for me of 5 mins 21 secs for approx 0.5l Woo hoo," she captioned the post.

“It is that time again - buttock clenching, leg raising, arm squeezing - giving blood today.

"I am now with Ross who is now used to my skinny veins and makes it absolutely painless.

"I will be up and about after this with my day. So just know, if you want to give blood, you are doing a great thing."

Naga added: "I'll be done. If you can give blood, if you want to give blood, you are doing a good thing. Anyway, see you on BBC Breakfast."
