TLDR B(III) blood type may have higher hemoglobin levels, but stress affects this, and hair iron levels correlate with hemoglobin in some blood types.
The study examined the relationship between the ABO blood type system and hemoglobin levels in blood, as well as iron concentration in hair, among 43 female students aged 18-22. It found that individuals with the B(III) blood type had higher hemoglobin levels compared to those with the 0(I) blood group during non-stress periods, but this difference disappeared during emotional stress. The A(II) blood group showed stable hemoglobin levels under stress. No significant differences were observed in erythrocyte levels or hair iron concentration across blood types. A significant correlation between hair iron concentration and hemoglobin levels was noted in 0(I), A(II), and B(III) groups during non-stress periods, with the strongest correlation in the B(III) group. The study suggested that the ABO blood type system could be a prognostic marker for hemoglobin and iron levels, though further research was needed.
