Blood Type Diet From site:
www.LamMD.com
According to Dr. Peter DÁdamo, 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. 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. 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)
Below is a summary of the various Blood Type
Diet and detail plan of each one according to Dr. DÁdamo.
