I thought when people wanted to benefit from younger blood they used whole blood. I remember in California some guy set up a business.

Yes and no. However the practices are many. For operations (such as organ transplants) you need plasma. And for some aspects of aging and disease the youthful plasma is very helpful. Also stem cells. When they use whole blood they need very good matches and better screening for weird pathogens than their black market hospitals may have the ability to identify. It also stores longer.
