Diet according to blood group: what works best for weight loss?

The core of the theory of blood groups makes the discovery that the blood group antigens behave differently in biochemical reactions to certain foods (i.e. some of their ingredients)

On the eternal question of whether food is a universal character, or food that is for a man food – other (almost) venom, Dr. Peter D’Adamo replied:

“Tell me your blood type and I’ll tell you if you feed or poison.”

He is, in fact, continued his father’s pioneering work in the study of the importance of blood from the standpoint of biochemistry whole body and his theory of nutrition by the scientific basis of clearly defining the biochemical specificities of each person’s genetic factors and environmental factors. Blood type is the key to opening many, covert, the healing power of the body, explains Dr. D’Adamo in his best-selling book “Eat Right for Your Type”. He recalls the fact that the blood type is one of several medically recognized diversity, but at the same time, she talks about the evolution of the human race.

Diet by blood groups – the basics

D’Adamo points to the fact that every living form, from simple viruses to the people themselves, possess unique antigens that are specific to each organism. Very powerful antigens in the human body are the ones that determine blood type. They are so sensitive that, when well-functioning, represent a safety best part of the immune system. Each blood type possesses different antigens with specific chemical structure. And only the name of the blood group antigen is formed by a group which is located in red blood cells.

Thus, the core of the theory of blood groups makes the discovery that the blood group antigens behave differently in biochemical reactions to certain foods (ie some of their ingredients).
