RE: Your gut microbiome can convert A and B blood types into the universal type O

in #steemstem • 6 years ago

Hey rcebike,

could this be dangerous for humans somehow. For instance by changing the whole blood type. I never heard things like this before. But the imagination is somehow creepy.

Best regards

    Hey @chappertron
    sorry for the late reply as I was away up north for a week without internet. I don't think the gut bacteria will change the blood type of the person per se but the researchers want to utilize the the enzymes produced by these bacteria to convert A or B blood to O and then use this converted blood as donor blood.
    cheers!
