Some of the effects of the Eucharist are:
- increases the communicant's union with the Lord
- forgives the communicant's venial sins
- preserves the communicant from grave sins
- strengthens the bonds of charity between the communicant and Christ
- reinforces the unity of the Church as the Mystical Body of Christ.

With love in Christ.

Hopefully this will be helpful to you. I listed the source below as well, so that you can backtrack to the original location that it was found.

V. THE SACRAMENTAL SACRIFICE THANKSGIVING, MEMORIAL, PRESENCE

1356 If from the beginning Christians have celebrated the Eucharist and in a form whose substance has not changed despite the great diversity of times and liturgies, it is because we know ourselves to be bound by the command the Lord gave on the eve of his Passion: "Do this in remembrance of me."181

1357 We carry out this command of the Lord by celebrating the memorial of his sacrifice. In so doing, we offer to the Father what he has himself given us: the gifts of his creation, bread and wine which, by the power of the Holy Spirit and by the words of Christ, have become the body and blood of Christ. Christ is thus really and mysteriously made present.

1358 We must therefore consider the Eucharist as:

- thanksgiving and praise to the Father;
- the sacrificial memorial of Christ and his Body;
- the presence of Christ by the power of his word and of his Spirit.

I can think of a couple right off the bat:

1. Interior sanctification
2. Remission of venial sin
3. Fortification against mortal sin

And I'm sure there are many more.

Bread- the body of Christ
Blood- the sacred blood He shed for us.

Both are vital for life.
Both are vital to the Christian life.

Both blood and the body of Christ are described as life.

Could you please expand on that question? Do you mean results? Do you mean the benefits?
