Eucharistic Miracles = Same Blood type?

[fish90]

I thought I heard one time that all of the Eucharistic miracles happened to have the same blood type? Can anybody verify this?

I’m not sure if this is true or not but I do know for sure that the Eucharistic miracle @ lanciano Italy and that the shroud of Turin have the same blood type

The blood from Lanciano has been shown to be of type AB+, which is the “universal receiver” (ie, a person of AB+ blood type may receive a transfusion from any other type without rejection). This is a somewhat rare blood type, occurring in about 5% of the human population.

The blood samples from the shroud are much less certain. It was initially identified as AB+, but subsequent analysis by a laboratory dedicated to the study of ancient blood types determined that the sample was not sufficient to establish a positive conclusion.

You also have to remember that all and any old blood invariably turns into type AB, because the cell walls would have degraded with time.
