This makes it more difficult to figure them out. But like Type Bs, they’re also extroverted. Not surprisingly, the Japanese describe the personality of blood type ABs as a combination of the A and the B personality - in a word, “eccentric.”.They believe blood type is so important it can indicate what romantic partner is the best match or what job position is right for you, depending on your type.
Looking at the Type AB personality, we return to our friends, the Japanese, who take blood types very seriously: Type AB developed most recently, relatively speaking, and is a rare type. D’Adamo, blood types developed over years of human history in response to different factors in human environments. But AB- (negative) is very rare indeed.Īccording to Dr. Here in the U.S., less than 4 percent of us are AB + (positive), so AB is a rare blood type. AB- (negative) patients are only able to receive blood from other AB- (negative) donors. So, AB- means that the person is “negative” and their blood does not contain the Rh factor. (It’s sometimes called the “antigen D.”) This is the distinguishing “-“ or “+” written right after the letter of the blood type. Now, what about that + and -? This is called the “Rhesus factor” and can also be found on the surface of the red blood cells.
Type O blood does not have antigens for either A or B types, so Os can donate to all blood types. But perhaps first, you should know that, as an AB, you do not have any A or B antigens on the surface of your red blood cells, so you do not create antibodies and are a “universal recipient.” And if your biological mother is an A, and your biological father is an AB, you could also have A, B, or AB blood.ĭoes this make your head spin? Hang in there, and we’ll get to what makes ABs special. If your mother, for instance, is blood type A, and your father is blood type B, you could potentially be blood type A, B, or AB. Someone who’s given the wrong blood during a blood transfusion may experience their body attacking the “foreign invader” with potentially fatal consequences.īlood type is inherited and, like hair color, is passed down genetically from your parents. B- (negative) patients are only able to receive blood from other B- (negative) donors.
#FOOD FOR A NEGATIVE BLOOD TYPE SERIES#
The foundation for that chapter and the articles in this series draws from the work of Dr. And since Body Ecology’s System of Health and Healing is based on 7 Universal Principles, the Principle of Uniqueness is a law that we always honor in Body Ecology. Our differing blood types are just one more thing that makes us each unique. In fact, one chapter in The Body Ecology Diet: Recovering Your Health and Building Immunity is entirely devoted to blood types. Would it benefit ABs to know more about their blood type than just the name of the antigen contained in their blood? We think so. Just like blood type A or type B, which we reviewed in our two prior articles in our blood type series, an AB’s special biochemistry can influence everything from their approach to exercise, to what foods are best to eat, to determining what diseases or conditions for which they may be at risk and how those might be mitigated.įree download: Get the Body Ecology blood type ebook. Fluid, calming exercises like yoga and tai chi can help ABs to be more emotionally stable.
