Eat Right For Your Blood Type

I am no scientist of course, nor am I a doctor. I just thought it made sense
that we started out as meat eaters and type O was the starting blood type.
(if what they say is correct) The second bloodtype started later and ate
grains and veggies primarily, so came blood type A. Then O's and A's started
eating both meat and veggies evolving into new blood types.

It is just my opinion. It makes sense to me. That does not mean it makes
sense to everyone else and I don't know how factual the guys info is so
that's all I have to go off of.

The only reason I looked into this diet was because we went back home after
5 years and had dinner with a friend who was always overweight and had
severe allergy and cholesterol problems. His Doc put him on this diet and
all of his allergies went away as well as his cholesterol lowered and he had
lost 20 pounds in 6 weeks. Obviously that is not as fast as Atkins, but what
is? We all know Atkins is the best.
So I tried it and it worked, slowly but surely. But then I kept meeting
these people who lost massive amounts on Atkins. I met a girl who asked me
to switch to Atkins and we would do it together, so I did and I do not
regret it one bit.

we may not agree and that's ok. But we are on the same page with low carb I
believe.

I missed the beginning of this conversation but I looked into that book
before doing Atkins and I think it makes perfect scientific sense if you
read it from front to back. I also followed it religiously and lost a
little weight before switching to Atkins. The food allowance is too
structured in my opinion on the ERFYBT book
I am a type 0+ and I just decided that since I am already a meat eater
Atkins might be good. (of course I eat plenty of veggies as well)
I have often thought of switching to ERFYBT after I get to goal. Not
going
above my carb limit of course, but adding things like spelt pasta and
sweet
potato. Who knows, It's been a while since I have read that book. For
now,
I
am sticking with Atkins.

just my thoughts.

Please explain what you mean by "perfect scientific sense" as the blood
type
diet makes absolutely NO SENSE of any kind to me.

Sorry. That theory has been thoroughly discredited. To see why and
how, look at blood types in chimps.

Once the bases are debunked, the rest falls of its own weight.

I have to agree with Tonya. To simply state "that theory has been
thoroughly discredited" says nothing. Except that you, for some reason,
disagree with a lot of good research and science.

Disagree all you want. Postulate opinions all you want. The rest of us
will continue to use real science to maintain control over our bodies.

Zuchinni, anyone?

You know, Sparky, it might be real good to post some of that "good
research and science." See if you can find any outside of that book.

I didn't just say the theory was bull****, I suggested you look to see
about Chimp blood types. I suggested that because, as deep questers of
"good research and science" that you are, a few minutes of seeing that
blood types originated at the same time and not sequentially gives
complete lie to the foolishness behind the approach. If chimps show a
distribution of blood types and they were our evolutionary precursors,
then the book is crap. The book is crap.

Real science doesn't come with crayons and a picture of Barney on the

Feel free to use real science. You won't find any in D'Adamo's book.
It may make "sense" to people who know nothing about biology and
anthropology, but there is no science to back up his blood type
theories. The author is a naturopath (read: herbalist with a mail
order degree). Plenty of animals have multiple blood types, yet eat
the same diet.

The only reason his book hasn't been relegated to the trash barrel
where it belongs is that he basically recommends low-carb (a diet
that works) for type O, and type O is the majority blood type in
North America.

do chimps eat meat?
Sorry, I do not compare myself to a chimp. I can talk and walk upright and
am human, not a chimp.

I'll still hug ya. cause I'm sweet like that.

why be so mean about someone's opinion? I just don't understand. We are not
scientists ourselves so there is no way any one of us can truly know the
facts. We get our info from reading and no matter what the subject, you will
always find conflicting info, therefore we make a decision on which side of
the story we want to believe. No need to be rude to one another.
