  1. WHAT WE ALL NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OUR BLOOD TYPE Along with lifestyle and nutrition, the blood type also plays a major role in the body of the person. Blood is highly essential to the body and plays an important role in transporting oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and carbon-di-oxide from the tissues back to the lungs. There are 4 blood groups namely A, B, AB and O. Each individual is born with a different blood type. It is very important for the person to know his/her own blood type. Knowing the characteristics of your blood helps in improving your health. Did you know that your blood type plays an important role in your health and body? If no, below mentioned are a few points we all need to know about each of our blood types. Blood types play a role in the following areas. DIET AND NUTRITION Blood type plays a major role in nutrition and diet. It is very important for digestion and weight loss. People should consume food based on their own blood type which helps in improving the overall health of the individual. For e.g., people with blood type A are recommended to have more of vegetables, people with blood type B are asked to have red meat over chicken, people with blood type AB are recommended to have more of sea foods and lean meat and people with blood type O are recommended to consume foods rich in protein. ONE’S PERSONALITY

  2. Did you know that blood type could affect a person’s personality? People with blood group A are supposed to be peaceful, artistic and trustworthy. People with blood group B are said to be dedicated, goal-oriented, strong and independent. People with blood group AB are usually shy, reliable, responsible and like taking care of others. People with blood type O are considered as extraverts, creative, social and confident. ABDOMEN Blood type also plays an important role in the abdomen. People with blood group A digest carbohydrates easily when compared to the other blood types and therefore, people with this blood type rarely have fat around their belly. On the other hand, people with blood group O find difficulty in digestion and are more prone to develop belly fat. DISEASES It is very important to know the characteristics of one’s blood type. Due to the different formations of antigens on the surface of the blood cells, every blood type is different. Each blood group is resistant to a type of disease and susceptible to another. Therefore, knowing the characteristics of one’s blood type is essential in order to prevent specific diseases. STRESS LEVELS Apart from personality and nutrition, blood type also plays an important role during stress. Blood type influences a person’s tolerance levels during stressful conditions. A person with blood group A produce more amount of cortisol-stress hormone. A person with blood group O has higher chances of getting furious quickly. These people may possess an increased level of adrenaline and may require more time to recover from stressful conditions. MARRIAGE Apart from verifying your partner’s background, it is very important to know his/hers blood type. Certain blood types should not be mixed in case you plan for an offspring. For e.g., couples with blood group A and B should not be mixed. Also, the property of blood called the RH factor should not be mixed because if the mother has RH- and the baby in the womb possesses RH+ blood, the RH- of the mother may develop antibodies which may attack the baby. Therefore it is important to know the blood group of your partner to be aware of such conditions. PREGNANCY Blood type also affects pregnancy. It has been documented that women with a particular blood type have an increased chance of getting pregnant when compared to other women with different blood groups. A study shows that women with blood type AB produce less follicle-stimulating hormone which helps in conceiving with ease.

  3. EXERCISE Stress is our biggest enemy. People with blood type A are more prone to stress and therefore they need to perform exercises to keep calm such as yoga, and meditation. On the other hand, people with blood type B like to indulge in challenging activities for their body and spirit and therefore to balance these two, they tend to perform activities like tennis, martial arts, trekking etc. EMERGENCY PURPOSE We all know the importance and demand for blood during an emergency. It is highly recommended for people to carry information such as full name, address, blood type, phone number, with you at all times. Considering the fact that you can accept blood only from compatible donors, this basic information is very important in crucial moments like an accident or injury. Carry this information with you as you may require blood transfusion. Getting to know these interesting facts about blood types will be helpful for you to be aware and alert at all times.
