We all have one, and science suggests our blood type may make a difference when it comes to how healthy our hearts are.
You wouldn’t know it by looking on the surface, but coursing through your veins every second of every day are tiny variations that categorize your blood into one of these groups: A+, A-, B+, B-, O-, O+, AB+, and AB-. Unless you’ve donated blood, were given a transfusion, or found out during pregnancy, maybe you’ve never thought twice about it.
Ongoing research into blood type suggests it may matter more than we give it credit for — at least when assessing risk for certain health conditions, especially heart disease. These invisible differences in the blood may give some people an edge at staving off cardiovascular problems and may leave others more susceptible.
What does blood type mean, and how are they different?
The letters A, B, and O represent various forms of the ABO gene, which program our blood cells differently to form the different blood groups. If you have type AB blood, for example, your body is programmed to produce A and B antigens on red blood cells. A person with type O blood doesn’t produce any antigens.
