PROTEIN, and blood type

[Guest guest]

Jenny, I see you've had a great experience on raw food diet. I'd like

to know what type of blood you are (A, B, AB, O?), and also from any

and all other succesful and no so succesful stories from others trying

this diet. This is to compare metabolic types.

thank you!

Deb

Hi Deb~

 

I am a blood type O and have read a lot on the blood type diet. I have a

bunch of food allergies and was blood tested using the ELISA/RAST testing.

Amazingly, I was allergic to everything on my list of foods that I was not

supposed

to eat for blood type O! Of course, as you know blood type O's are supposed

to tollerate animal protein very well. However, I do not. I have made it a

part of my diet all my life and just recently gave it up as I was feeling led

to. Going raw has been the best diet for me and I am the most healthy on it.

I have experimented with eating meat a little here and there ever since giving

it up just to see if it was something I thought I might need but I don't

digest it well and it leaves me quite tired. I require more sleep on the nights

that I have eaten animal protein during the day, my heart races, I am

constipated and I just feel my whole body is taxed from it. I survive quite

well on

the raw diet without the meat and once I gave up the meat and other alternative

starches that are supposed to be OK for blood type O's, I was able to add

fruit back into my diet with no issues surrounding it that I once had. I have

learned a lot from the blood type diet and it helped me along my road to health

but I don't feel any diet is perfect for everyone and so I learn what I can

from each one, apply to me what works and leave the rest in the dust. If I was

letting the blood type diet dictate all my eating habits, I would not be as

healthy as I am now eating 100% raw!

Thank you Sandy for your feedback, your personal experience is very

interesting. If you don't mind I have one more question for you, how

long has it been since you don't eat meat, I mean, since you've gone

'raw'?

Any other experience, somebody?

 

thank you...

They aren't really supposed to be allergic. It was just that I tested

positive for allergies for these foods that according to the blood type O, I am

not

supposed to be eating anyway!

 

All cheese

Milk

Casein

Goat's Milk

Whey

Yogurt

Corn

Peanuts

Whole wheat products

Cinnamon

Nutmeg

Vanilla

Vinegar

 

I don't have my allergy list in front of me but these were the foods that I

remember having the biggest issues with. Basically no dairy and wheat.

Starches are bad for me and it wasn't until I switched to raw that I replaced my

alternative grains with fruit and did much better. I started 100% raw the

middle

of January. I have stuck to it for the most part, however I did have company

in there for a few weeks and went off of it. This is not to say that some

days are not 100% but for the most part they are. I gave up meat in January as

well. After being off of it for a month or so, I tested myself to see how I

would react to it as well as tested raw dairy. Both are not working for

me~atleast for now. I know I have enzyme depletion but even taking enzymes with

these foods do not make up for the fact that they do not work for my body.

Yes, everyone is so different. Instead of following any diet, I would say,

get to know your body and what it's needs are. I have pulled many positives

from the various diet books I have read (not to lose weight but to be healthy).

I wouldn't follow the blood type diet today but it was exactly what I needed

a couple years ago and helped me tremendously on my pathway to health. I had

never heard of RAW then. I feel like I've finally found my home and my search

is over. I love the raw diet and how it makes me feel both emotionally,

physically and spritually! Since I am fairly new to it and don't have much

equipment I am learning slowly how to make it a way of life. I had gone on a 3

day

water fast and this led me to the raw diet. I had never planned it. When I

first started raw after the fast, it was the most natural for me~no struggles.

I had no problem just grabbing a head of lettuce and munching. I know this

is the way it should be and I look forward to being there again. " Cheating " on

the raw diet has made it harder for me. A fast would be nice to get me back

in balance but I am happily pregnant now and don't feel this is wise at the

time. I never thought though that I would be vegan and give up meat but I am

thankful that I have been led to this place when the time was right for me.

Thank God for that!
