Categorizing blood according to type helps prevent reactions when someone gets a blood transfusion. Blood groups are just a genetic difference, like having green eyes instead of blue or straight hair instead of curly.
Red blood cells have markers on their surface that characterize the cell type. These markers (also called antigens) are proteins and sugars that our bodies use to identify the blood cells as belonging in us.
The two main blood groups are ABO and Rh.
The ABO blood system has four main types:
Type A: Has a marker known as A.
Type B: Has a marker known as B.
Type AB: Has both A and B markers.
Type O: Has neither A nor B markers.
Blood is further classified as being either "Rh +" (has Rh factor) or "Rh -" (without Rh factor).
So, there are 8 blood types:
O+, O-, AB+, AB-, A+, A-, B+, B-
To get a blood transfusion safely, a person's immune system must recognize the donor cells as a match to his or her own cells.
The immune system makes proteins called antibodies that act as protectors if foreign cells enter the body. Depending on which blood type you have, your immune system will make antibodies to react against other blood types.
If a patient gets the wrong blood type, the antibodies immediately set out to destroy the invading cells. This aggressive, whole-body response can give someone bad reactions.
Example of how the blood type-antibody process works:
Type A blood has A marker, it makes B antibodies.
If B markers (found in type B or type AB blood) enter your body, your type A immune system gets fired up against them.
This means that you can only get a transfusion from someone with A or O blood, not from someone with B or AB blood.
For people with type AB or type O blood:
You have both A and B markers (type AB blood), your body does not need to fight the presence of either.
But if you have type O blood, there are no A or B markers. So: Your body will have bo

Sleep is one activity that we do for really long hours, without a break. And if any body part gets compressed for hours, it can hamper blood circulation in that area. And imagine doing this day in and day out! Also night in and night out! The idea is to keep the body parts relaxed. This is based on the workshop conducted by a sleep expert from Gujarat, a state in India..whose family has cured Thousands of people from many lifestyle diseases that occur due to bad sleep postures. When a particular part of the body gets compressed and doesn't receive blood flow for a long period of time over many days, it starts creating problems in the body. Fixing your sleep posture makes sure all body parts are receiving blood and nutrients regularly.

There is a famous message spreading across the internet that showering head to toe can cause Brain stroke or heart issues. You should have a bath from toe to head. I did my research to see if it's true. I couldn't find a solid study on this.
Having said this..there has been a constant increase in reported stroke and heart problems caused in the bathroom. So here is a small precaution that can help people with blood pressure issues and heart condition.

🍓🍉Eat a fruit or Drink it's juice? 🍓🍹
Many times we think eating fruit and drinking its juice has the same effect on the body. It is not! If you look at health, eating a fruit has so many benefits like having fibers, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants in large quantities whereas juice has these in much lesser proportion.
Eating the skin and pul can help improve digestion, regulate blood sugar and feel full compared to drinking its juice. Also fruits contain less calories compared to the same quantity of juice. But juice helps in quick energy especially when you are playing sports or hiking etc and also it is easy to carry it!
So you can make your choice of diet according to your goals!

1. May cause muscle stiffness leading to injury
2. May fasten up sweat evaporation leading to dehydration
