Re: Funny blood type experiment
Im AB group: Mixed (A+B) diet in moderation:
http://www.drlam.com/blood_type_diet/blood_ab.asp
"Multiple antigens make Type ABs sometimes A-like with weak stomach acid, and sometimes B-like with genetically programmed for the consumption of meats. Type AB do best when their muscle tissues are slightly alkaline. Type ABs can't metabolize meat efficiently because of low stomach acid, so it is important to watch the portion size and frequency."
Well, I think Im A-like (weak stomach acid) and I MUST divide sizes and frequency of foods...
"Chicken has lectin that irritates the blood and digestive tracts of Type ABs also. Tofu is a good protein supplements for Type ABs. Nuts, seeds, beans and legumes present a mixed picture for Type ABs. Eat nuts and seeds in small amounts and with caution."
I agree again, I used to eat turkey instead of chicken. I`ve never tried Tofu and nuts and seeds I only can take it in small amounts.
"Type ABs can tolerate dairy foods fairly well. But watch out for excessive mucus production."
Agree.
"Generally Type ABs do well on grains, even wheat, but keep in mind that the inner kernel of the wheat grain is highly acid forming in the muscle for Type ABs. Type AB benefits from a diet rich in rice rather than pasta."
Maybe, but rice (fullrice of course) = constipation.
"Type ABs has a weaker immune system, so you will benefit from the vegetables, which are high in phytocheicals and the more alkaline fruits, which can help to balance the grains that are acid forming in the muscle tissues. Tomatoes do not impose any ill effects on Type ABs. "
Agree, I do not tolerate acid fruits. Tomatoes are sighly acidic, I cant abuse.
"Type AB should begin each day by drinking a glass of warm water with the freshly squeezed juice of half a lemon to cleanse the system of mucus accumulated while sleeping."
Never tried, ¿lemon? I dont think it is a good idea fo rme...

Meat and Poultry
Type AB do not produce enough stomach acid to effectively digest too much animal protein. So the key is portion size and frequency:
Lamb, mutton, rabbit, turkey
Yes!
Dairy
Cultured and soured products are easily digested for Type ABs:
Yogurt, Kefir, Non-fat sour cream, egg, Mozzarella, Goat cheese and milk, Ricotta
Yes!
Fats
Use sparingly:
Olive
Yes! I always use olive oil for everything.
Nuts
Powerful immune booster for Type A and Type AB:
Type Abs tend to suffer from gallbladder problems, so nut butters are preferable to whole nuts. Also eat small amounts with caution:
Peanut, Walnuts
Yes! Since chilhood I MUST eat small amounts of nuts.
"Tropical fruits doesn't agree with Type AB"
Yes!
"Oranges are stomach irritant for Type AB"
Yes!
Spices
The ingredients are acidic
Yes! I do no do well on anything acid.
Well, I must confess that Im quite impressed ... but I dont think there is such a diet for a "group" of people cause everybody is different. But of course I think some diets can give you clues and then you must change/adapt it to suit your body.
