According to webmd.com, here\u2019s How Your Blood Type Can Affect Your Health
\nStomach Cancer
\nA, AB, and B blood types are more at risk than type Os. Specifically, people with type A blood are more likely to get stomach cancer. Researchers think this might be because H. pylori infection is more common in people with type A blood. That\u2019s a bacteria that\u2019s usually found in the stomach. It can cause inflammation and ulcers.<\/p>\n
Ulcers
\nPeptic ulcers \u2014 painful open sores that crop up in the lining of your stomach or upper intestine \u2014 seem to happen more often with blood type O.<\/p>\n
Blood Clots<\/p>\n
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is when your blood clots in a deep vein, like the ones in your legs. These clots sometimes move to your lungs. Research shows that people with type A, B, or AB blood are at a higher risk of VTE.<\/p>\n
Stroke
\nYour risk for a stroke goes up if you have blood type AB. Doctors think that\u2019s because it\u2019s more likely to clot than other types.<\/p>\n
Diabetes
\nType 2 diabetes seems to happen more often in people with blood types A and B. Experts aren\u2019t sure why. More research is needed.<\/p>\n
Heart Disease
\nThere\u2019s good news for O blood types. Research shows your risk of coronary heart disease tends to be lower. Experts aren\u2019t sure why. Some think it might be because other types are more likely to have higher cholesterol and higher amounts of a protein that\u2019s linked to clotting.<\/p>\n
Stress
\nStress boosts your body\u2019s level of cortisol, the stress hormone. People with type A blood tend to have more cortisol, anyway. So you may have a harder time dealing with stressful situations.<\/p>\n
Malaria
\nType O blood may help ward off this disease. You can get malaria when an infected mosquito bites you. The parasite that causes it has a harder time attaching itself to type O blood cells.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
