EAT RIGHT FOR YOUR BLOOD TYPE

DO YOU KNOW YOUR BLOOD TYPE??

The blood type diet is based on dietary individuality, meaning that not all foods are good for all people, whether or not a food is good for you depends on your blood type and subsequent genetic heritage.

According to Dr. Peter DÁdamo, 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, 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. Different lectins target different organs and body system.

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. However, at least five percent of the lectins you eat are filtered into the bloodstream and cause different reactions in different organs.

Depending on your blood type it is recommended that you avoid or include certain foods in your diet. Foods are divided into three categories: Highly beneficial (food that acts like Medicine), Neutral foods (food that are neither harmful nor particularly beneficial) and Foods not allowed (food that acts like a Poison).

Your blood type diet is the restoration of your natural genetic rhythm. It works because you are able to follow a clear, logical, scientifically researched plan based on your cellular profile.

The blood type diet is quite effective at improving many aspects of overall health. Conditions that may benefit from the blood type diet include digestive problems, fatigue, allergies, weight loss and arthritis, and it is particularly useful for chronic illness.

If you are unsure of your blood type, we can perform a simple on-the-spot test to find out.
