Health Desk. B+ (B positive) blood group is one of the most common blood groups in the world. This blood group is not only important for transfusion, but some interesting scientific facts are also hidden behind it. Let’s know 7 important things to B+ blood group:

Around 8–10% of people worldwide have blood group B+, while in South Asian countries like India this percentage can reach 27-32%. This diversity is due to the genetic makeup and regional diversity of the population.

B+ blood groups have found a slightly higher risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and stroke. Apart from this, their immune system reactions can also be sometimes susceptible. There is excess of certain types of antibodies in the body of people with B group, which can cause some allergies and inflammatory problems.
