These various reactions could lead to cellular alterations that raise the risk of cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When interpreting these associations between blood type and cancer risk, some experts advise exercising caution. They note that the number of participants in many studies is quite small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other significant cancer risk factors, like smoking or alcohol use, are frequently overlooked in the research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most prevalent blood type in the UK is O-positive, which is followed by A positive and A negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the NHS, O-positive and A-positive people together make up about 65% of the population in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just 1% of individuals in the UK have AB negative blood, the rarest blood type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few easy ways to find out your blood type. Online tests that you can do yourself start at \u00a39.99.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For less than \u00a3100, private clinics provide blood typing services with results in as little as two days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After their first donation, NHS blood donors can find out their type for free. Patients in hospitals can also inquire about their blood type with their physician.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blood types that may be considerably more susceptible to some fatal cancers have been identified by recent research.
