May 2, 2008, Newsletter Issue #114: How does the Blood Type Diet work?
1
Tip of the Week
The blood type diet is best described in Peter D'Adamo's book "Eat Right 4 Your Type". There are actually, four diets: for four blood types.
The general idea is that if you use your blood type as a guide for eating, you will be healthier, reach your ideal body weight, and slow the aging process. Why?
Each of the four blood types developed in response to different food types. Type O, the oldest blood type, evolved when people were gatherers of plants and grains. The next oldest, Type A, appeared as an evolutionary response to the beginning of farming. The Type B among nomads, which food was almost entirely meat. The most recent Type AB combines many of the characteristics of A and B.
Now, what is known to the medical science? There are research results showing that "bad" cholesterol reactions to diet or fasting, intestinal enzymes activities, risk of duodenal ulcer, carbohydrate profiles of blood in response to carbohydrate intake, and characteristics of some gut-brain hormones - all these traits depended on blood type. There has been no direct evidence of the Blood Type Diet correctness but the above facts directly proved the existence of connections between blood type and nutrition/digestion.
