The relationship between blood type and health

It is well known that there is no shortcut to weight loss. However, according to research by Peter D'Adamo, an expert in natural therapy medicine in the United States, each person can digest certain specific foods more effectively according to their blood type. If you adapt to this 'blood type diet pattern', it can make your weight loss journey smoother.

Blood type A:Vegetarianism

According to archaeological evidence, the ancestors of blood type A mainly engaged in agricultural work, with a diet mainly consisting of crops and fruits. They have less gastric acid secretion, so their ability to digest meat is relatively poor. Once they eat a large amount of meat and have poor digestion, it is easy to accumulate fat and become overweight.

For people with blood type A, a diet consisting of low-calorie fruits and vegetables, along with a small amount of meat or dairy products, is a relatively reasonable dietary structure. People with blood type A also tend to have calm and self-controlled personalities, which are suitable for relaxing exercises such as yoga, walking, and Pilates that require control and patience.

Blood type B:Eat less and more often

People with blood type B have ancestors who mainly engaged in nomadic work, covering most major human races. Therefore, people with blood type B have very strong adaptability to their bodies and a high degree of acceptance of food, with good digestion of both vegetarian and meat foods.

This blood type has dietary weaknesses in foods such as potatoes, buckwheat, peanuts, sesame seeds, and wheat, among which the lectins can hinder the metabolism of blood type B. In addition, due to their strong appetite, people with blood type B need to prevent fat accumulation caused by overeating and overdrinking, and should try to eat less and more frequently.

Blood type AB:Balanced diet

People with blood type AB combine the advantages of blood types A and B, with relatively strong digestion of both vegetarian and meat foods. However, their digestive systems are more sensitive and prone to weight gain. Both A and B blood types should not eat too much of the food that is not suitable for them, and blood type AB people should also avoid eating too much of it.

People with this blood type should have a diversified diet. If they are overweight, they should mainly eat vegetables and fruits, supplemented with meat and dairy products, to maintain a balanced nutrition. It is important to note that animal proteins that are difficult to digest for blood type A are not a big problem for blood type AB, but their immune system is relatively weak, and they should consume more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C.

Blood type O:Love meat

The ancestors of blood type O mainly lived a hunting lifestyle and have a significant advantage in digesting meat. However, they are relatively poor in digesting cereal foods and dairy products. As carnivores with a strong digestive system, people with blood type O can safely and boldly enjoy the deliciousness of meat but should also pay attention to pairing it with fresh vegetables and fruits.

People with blood type O need to work hard on exercise to lose weight. Just like hunters in the primitive society, they often need intense and large amounts of exercise to burn fat in their bodies and get enough physical exercise.
