Lose Weight With Blood Group Type Diet

In my previous post I discussed about Blood Group Type Diet for O and A blood groups and now its going to be B and AB blood groups. I am sure O and A blood group readers must have had learnt something from the details given in the post. Here is what Dr D’Adamo has to say about Type B and AB blood groups.

LOSE WEIGHT WITH BLOOD GROUP TYPE DIET

 

TYPE B BLOOD:

Blood group B is called the nomad by D’Adamo,as it evolved 10000 years ago at a time when people travelled more. He states that this type is associated with a strong immune system and a flexible digestive system. He also asserts that people of blood type B are the only people able to thrive on dairy products. No blood type epitomises the ‘everything in moderation’ expression more than B, so meat, vegetables and grains were eaten in a more balanced way.

FOR WEIGHT LOSS:

Combining the O and A diet — a bit of everything. Lucky type Bs generally find it easiest to lose weight.

FOODS TO EAT FREELY:

Meat, fish, coffee, vegetables and wheat-free grains.
He encourages eating green vegetables, eggs, certain meats, and low-fat dairy.

FOODS TO AVOID:

Processed foods, corn, wheat, buckwheat, lentils, tomatoes, peanuts, and sesame seeds. Chicken is also problematic, D’Adamo says.

AILMENTS INDICATED:

Stress can make you lose or gain weight. Severe chronic degenerative illnesses are expected.

EXERCISE PLAN:

They are drawn to moderate exercise, which uses brain as well as body. Team sports such as netball or dancing classes, two to three times a week are perfect.

TYPE AB BLOOD:

A combination of types A and B, they have dietary components of both and can eat just about anything. Blood group AB is described by D’Adamo as the enigma, and believes it to be the most recently evolved type and to have arrived less than 1,000 years ago. In terms of dietary needs, he treats this group as an intermediate between blood types A and B. He says people with type AB blood tend to have low stomach acid.

FOR WEIGHT LOSS:

Avoid too much meat. Pack your diet with vegetarian foods and treat meat as a treat.

FOODS TO EAT FREELY:

Fish, vegetables, carbs and grains. Foods to focus on include tofu, seafood, dairy, and green vegetables.

FOODS TO AVOID:

Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and smoked or cured meats. Too much meat is bad for AB group.

AILMENTS INDICATED:

Heart disease, cancer, and anemia

EXERCISE PLAN:

Mix it up by appealing to your calm side with yoga or Pilates once a week and a couple of sessions of something more intense such as light jogging.

To conclude this here is a brief of all the four blood groups.
