“An ounce of blood is worth more than a pound of friendship” – Spanish Proverb

You can change your lifestyle, and many of us do from time to time. But, you cant change your blood type – which was pre-determined by your parents type and a bit of genetic luck.   Your blood type is determined by microscopic substances that live on the surface of you red blood cells.  These tiny proteins interact with your immune system in ways that change your risks and susceptibility for various lifestyle conditions.   Many researchers even believe that your blood type can tell you what type of diet you should  be eating, the types of workouts you should be doing and even the types of health issues you tend to end up with when you do not take health into your own hands.
