Blood Type Diet
According to Dr. Peter D´Adamo, author of Eat Right For Your Type, 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. 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.
Here's what D'Adamo recommends for each type:
Type 0 blood: High-protein, meat-eaters: A high-protein diet heavy on lean meat, poultry,
fish, and vegetables, and light on grains, beans, and dairy. D'Adamo also recommends
various supplements to help with tummy troubles and other issues he says people with type
0 tend to have.
Type A blood: Vegetarian: A meat-free diet based on fruits and vegetables, beans and
legumes, and whole grains -- ideally, organic and fresh, because D'Adamo says people with
type A blood have a sensitive immune system.
Type B blood: Balanced omnivore: Avoid corn, wheat, buckwheat, lentils, tomatoes,
peanuts, and sesame seeds. Chicken is also problematic, D'Adamo says. He encourages
eating green vegetables, eggs, certain meats, and low-fat dairy.
Type AB blood: Mixed diet in moderation: Foods to focus on include tofu, seafood, dairy,
and green vegetables. He says people with type AB blood tend to have low stomach acid.
Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and smoked or cured meats.
