I think the BTD theory is that it makes little or no difference to the diet, but I am not so sure myself. I wouldn't be surprised if it was later found that it did. I found this on the BTD site, posting it here in case the link does not copy.

"Hi, ken ~~ Turns out that it plays little or no role in diet & exercise choices. The Rhesus system is a "true" blood typer -- meaning it affects only the blood itself and is not expressed elsewhere. It may be of some small consequence in O's, but they will still follow the O diet.

The ABO system is a separate parameter for typing from the Rhesus system. It's usually expressed throughout the tissues and secretions, so it's the one the Blood Type Diet is based upon."



fsnaturelady - it's interesting that about your son, I think I might try that myself.

I am obviously going to need to get the book(s), but what does that mean, "agglutination take place over the organs?"

All I know is that I ate a ton of food yesterday, including meat at both lunch and dinner, and I feel thinner, had my colon not all congested and clogged (things moving thru better than normal), and feel more energetic and thinner AND NOT HUNGRY.

There have been times that I ate practically nothing and felt the converse was true. Eating according to this list seems to be "right" to me. I was very skeptical of this diet all this time, because I perceived it to be faddish. So I avoided it....too bad. (That's what happens when someone that you think follows every single fad diet pushes their latest, greatest on you---one tends to discount their experience and discernment. My bad...)
