Blood type diet

A chemical reaction occurs between your blood and the foods

you eat. This reaction is part of your genetic inheritance. This

reaction is caused by a factor called Lectins. Lectins, abundant

and diverse proteins found in foods, have agglutinating

properties that affect your blood. So when you eat a food

containing protein lectins that are incompatible with your blood

type antigen, the lectins target an organ or bodily system and

begin to agglutinate blood cells in that area.

Fortunately, most lectins found in the diet are not quite so life

threatening, although they can cause a variety of other

problems, especially if they are specific to a particular blood

type. For the most part your immune systems protect you from

lectins. Ninety-five percent of the lectins you absorb from your

typical diets are sloughed off by the body. But at least five

percent of the lectins you eat are filtered into the

bloodstream and different reactions in different organs.

Your blood type diet is the restoration of your natural

genetic rhythm. Your blood type diet works because you

are able to follow a clear, logical, scientifically researched

plan based on your cellular profile. Each food groups are

divided into three categories: Highly beneficial ( food

that acts like Medicine), Foods allowed (food that

are no harm to the blood type) and Foods not

allowed (food that acts like a Poison)

Each type within this group having unique dietary

recommendations:

Blood group O is the earliest human blood group. The diet

recommends that this blood group eat a higher protein diet. D'Adamo bases this on the belief that O blood type was the first blood

type, originating 30,000 years ago.

Blood group A is called the cultivator, who believes it to be a more

recently evolved blood type, dating back from the dawn of agriculture,

20,000 years ago. The diet recommends that individuals of blood

group A eat a diet emphasizing vegetables and free of

red meat, a more vegetarian food intake.

Blood group B is, according to D'Adamo, the nomad,

associated with a strong immune system and a flexible

digestive system. The blood type diet claims that people of

blood type B are the only ones who can thrive on dairy

products and estimates blood type B arrived 10,000 years

ago.

Blood group AB, according to D'Adamo, the enigma, the

most recently evolved type, arriving less than 1,000 years

ago. In terms of dietary needs, his blood type diet treats this

group as an intermediate between blood

types A and B.

Characteristics of Type O – Best on

High Protein Diet1. Thrive on intense physical exercise and animal protein.

2. Do not do well with dairy and grain products.

3. Hardy digestive tract.

found in wheat germ and whole wheat products.

5. Type O have a tendency to have low levels of thyroid

hormones and unstable thyroid functions, which cause

metabolic problems and weight gain.

easily.
