Blogging About The Blood Type Diet
Read "Blogging By Blood Type' by Amy Cunningham at Chattering Mind. She's on to this special program..not your typical diet plan that we've read or heard about so often. Amy is very positive about this diet that goes way beyond just losing weight.
I have been on the Blood Type Diet for several years and it has become part of my healthy life style. For me, being in the best health isn't just about following one program. I have had to use trial and error continuously as I watch my reaction to food, stress, exercise. I guess its a matter of priorities. For me its high on my list.
Amy has her own thoughts as a newbie on this diet. Other readers made comments as well.
"This is so fascinating. I just discovered it. Dr. Peter D'Adamo, author of "Eat Right 4 Your Type: The Individualized Diet Solution to Staying Healthy, Living Longer & Achieving Your Ideal Weight," maintains a site with a fleet of good bloggers writing about their lives and diets, planned according to their blood types.
I happen to be a type O (I need some red meat and am not the best candidate for a vegan lifestyle). Do you know what you are? You can buy a blood-type determining kit for $9.95 plus postage. I'll be posting more on this fascinating, health-transforming subject as I get deeper into it myself."
Instead of paying for a kit to determine your blood type you can also donate blood. That way, in addition to learning what type you are, you can help save lives. Isn't that better?
Ray WilsonOh Ray, thanks for this post. Because I have been off and on anemic for years, I am not one whose blood is much desired by blood banks, so I didn't know you could get your blood type that way. Yes, by all means give!
A CunninghamHere's something from the homepage of the American Red Cross: To learn more about blood donation opportunities, visit www.givelife.org or
call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE (1-800-448-3543).
A CunninghamI have been on the Blood Type Diet for years and have paid special attention to 'beneficial' and 'avoid' foods since my bout with breast cancer, 9 years ago.
Not only are the 'blood type specific' foods important to me, it's the herbs and supplements that are protective and part of my daily regimen.
If people had a deeper understanding of the lectin(proteins found in food) piece of the puzzle in guarding their health, they would go beyond the annoyance of changing their present dietary habits to include the foods that are more positive for their specific blood type(A, O, B, Ab)
MI have O type blood and I have been on this diet for going on two years. And I notice that when I don't adhere to it my body is out of whack. This diet really works. If you will eat what you are suppose to eat and avoid what you should you will be alright. When you think about this, it is not a diet but a way of life.
