A latest study by Swedish experts says that there is a relation between a person’s blood group and the possibility of developing cancer.
They evaluated and analyzed the data of more than a million people over the period of 35 years.
The findings of the scientists from the Karolinska Institute of Sweden indicate that individuals with O blood group, which is also known as 0 (zero) type blood, are more protected against cancer.
The study revealed that those who have A blood group have a higher risk of developing stomach cancer while those with blood group B and AB are more likely to have pancreatic cancer.
Scientists also stated that the formation of cancerous tumors is often caused by alcohol, cigarettes and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
