3 basic principles of blood type diet

Blood can tell us a lot about a person because it is essentially the bearer of life and destiny. Did you know there was even a once-popular diet based on blood type? Some fat people are also interested in it and studied the list of allowed products.It should be said right away that this technology has been criticized by doctors more than once and has no scientific basis. But everything comes first, so let's try to find out everything about this diet.

The history of food

There was a time when people believed that everyone bleeds the same. Remember the fairy tale Mowgli? "You and I, are of the same blood - you and me! " But soon, after trying to share their blood with the sick and wounded, a theory emerged: the blood was actually different.Many scientific studies and experiments were conducted on animals and people, but it was not until 1900 that Karl Landsteiner discovered three blood types, and soon after, his students discovered a fourth.Currently, the world uses alphanumeric classifications:

• O or I – first;
• A (II) – second;
• B (III) – third;
• AB (IV) – Fourth.

The most common blood types worldwide are blood group 1 and blood group 2. Its carriers account for 80% of all humans. The third type is less common, occurring in 15%, and the fourth type is considered the rarest, accounting for only 5%.

The American naturopathic doctor Peter D'Adamo proposed at the end of the 20th century that if certain diseases in humans are directly related to genetic characteristics and often depend on blood type, then nutrition based on blood type may well be possible. He asked each patient about their preferences for certain foods and formulated the correct diet for each group. All products are classified as useful, unwanted, and neutral.D'Adamo wrote several books on diet. They were a huge success among American readers and became bestsellers. Subsequently, his concept of "4 Blood Types - 4 Paths to Health" spread throughout the world, and everyone who wanted to lose weight rushed to try new eating habits.What is she?

Basic principles and rules

Nutrition according to blood type boils down to the following points.

• In every period of human evolution, there are certain eating habits. When it changes, the blood will mutate and new groups will appear. Therefore, each group has a basic set of products.
• To stay healthy, you need to eat the way your ancestors' specific blood type ate. Because of the biochemical link between blood and food, the "right" foods are better absorbed, digested faster, increase metabolism, and strengthen the immune system.
• If you eliminate the "wrong" foods from your diet, you can improve your body's performance, promote health, and extend your life.

An example is moving to another habitat or even traveling, when unusual local delicacies are not accepted by the body and health problems begin.

If a resident of the Far North who has spent his entire life eating fatty protein foods decides to move to Europe with its carbohydrate-rich cuisine, the risk of developing diabetes and digestive problems is high.

You don't even need to go far for examples, just look around. Some people hate milk, some love plant-based foods, and some will starve if they don't eat a big chunk of meat. Maybe this is not unreasonable?

Common food table for all groups

Let's take a look at the research of Dr. D'Adamo, who breaks down foods according to blood type, highlighting the forbidden, the allowed, and the neutral.legend:

• Products that should be restricted are indicated by a "-";
• Allow - "+";
• Neutral - "0".

Diet according to blood type 1

The most common in the world is the first positive blood type. Most common among East Slavs and American Indians.

People with the first blood type are universal blood donors, which means that this blood type is absolutely suitable for everyone. By the way, mosquitoes prefer the first blood type to all other blood types.

Eating behavior characteristics (hunters, carnivores)

Absolutely all ancient people living in primitive social systems had a first blood type, the rest happened through mutations.Now think back to the history of the ancient world, archaeological excavations and the conclusions of scientists - 40, 000 years ago, primitive people lived by hunting and gathering. Their primary diet consists of meat, meat, and more meat, followed by roots, herbs, and the few edible fruits and berries that grow wild in the forest.

Therefore, the owners of the first group carry the genes of the oldest hunters, and their bodies need as much protein as possible at the genetic level. Unfortunately, the diet was the worst. If you decide on such a diet, then you will have to give up a lot of your favorite foods.

The diet of blood type 1 includes meat, fish and vegetables. It is better not to consume milk and its derivatives at all.

Diet according to blood type 2

Same common group. It's actually hundreds of years younger than the first one and was formed through mutation after ancient hunters decided to settle in a permanent place and work in agriculture.

People with type O blood produce more of the hormone cortisol, which helps cope with stress. Also, unfortunately, they are prone to alcoholism.

Eating behavior characteristics (farmers)

25, 000 years ago, carnivorous hunters learned to cultivate the land and accept its bounty. This was the beginning of the development of an agricultural lifestyle. People began to build settlements, cultivate fields, and grow food crops and vegetables.Protein foods are reduced, animals are kept away from humans, and meat becomes more difficult to obtain.

Sometimes, the second blood type is called "vegetarian. "The region with the most users is Europe.

The diet of a person with blood type II should include vegetarian food, fish, poultry and dairy products. But it is recommended to give up coffee, beans and meat.

Diet according to blood type 3

The third group is rather rare and more characteristic of Asian peoples - they were known in the past for their large herds of livestock (horses, cattle, goats and sheep). Of course, they have to wander from place to place to feed animals.

Characteristics of eating behavior (nomads)

Blood mutated again about 10, 000 years ago, when milk and dairy products began to be actively introduced into the diet.

The largest number of people with the third blood type live in Asia - they are genetic nomads.

Such people are the luckiest - they have almost no limitations, they are omnivores. It is necessary to exclude semi-finished products, bacon and alcohol.

People with type IV blood are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's disease. But they are also popular donors of plasma, which is extremely valuable in treating burns.

Peculiarities of Eating Behavior (Puzzle)

This bloodline is the youngest, its age is no more than two thousand years. Its composition is truly unique and has the ability to fight autoimmune and allergic diseases.These people have a mixed diet; dietary restrictions are quite few. But it is recommended that they eat as much natural biological food as possible.

Does Rh factor affect nutrition?

From school we know that there are four blood types and their number doubles when the Rh factor is taken into account. It was first discovered following studies of rhesus monkeys, which is how it got its name. The Rh factor can be positive, specified as (Rh+) or negative (Rh-). It indicates the presence or absence of antigens (proteins) on the surface of red blood cells (erythrocytes).But in fact, dividing blood into only four categories is arbitrary - if we take into account all its properties, their number will be much greater. D'Adamo ignored this fact.

The influence of the Rh factor is not mentioned at all in D'Adamo's masterpiece. Since more than 80% of the world's population has a positive Rh factor, the diet is designed specifically for these people.

dietary taboos

People with the following medical conditions are prohibited from eating on their own without first consulting a doctor:

• diabetes;
• chronic digestive problems;
• Hematopoietic dysfunction;
• ARVI.

Additionally, if any medical condition worsens, it is not recommended to engage in any dieting until you feel better.

Do not experiment on yourself under any circumstances while pregnant or breastfeeding; remember, you are not only responsible for your own life, but also for your baby's.

Reviews from dieters

• "This is an ideal diet for people with no health problems. However, if you are overweight, then you are predisposed to various diseases, so the diet will not work. Of course, it is convenient to have a wide choice of products, But this approach does not suit me - doctors prohibit the consumption of all products allowed on the table. It turns out that the table is almost 90% contrary to the advice of doctors. "
• "I have no medical education, but I clearly see the huge drawbacks - the diet is completely unscientific. One of them is that people in the second category should rely on vegetarian food, and people in the third and fourth categories are omnivores, but theyPrecisely the descendants of the second category. Generally speaking, I wouldn't even try. "
• "I lost 10kg in a few months! The Blood Type Diet is cool and easy to lose weight. I think you can maintain this diet for life. I recommend this wonderful diet to anyone who wants to lose weight! "
• "The blood type diet is complete nonsense. Don't torture yourself with these healthy, harmful, neutral products. Eat everything in moderation and don't go crazy. If you want something sweet, eat 1-2 sugar insteadWhole chocolate; if you want bread, cut it off and eat it, but don't starve yourself. "
• "I presented the approved second-blood product at work - and the whole team laughed, wiped away tears and ate schnitzel (yes, yes, half of our team are 'farmers'). To be honest, I'm fromI have never seen a more stupid and completely unacceptable eating habit! "

Doctors’ opinions and criticisms

Blood test diets are not approved by doctors. After all, each person is unique, so it is necessary to conduct complex studies and have data on more than 60 specific genes responsible for endocrine and enzymatic activity before a diet can be created. And blood type in this case is too general a factor to be responsible for the correctness of the menu for a specific person.Therefore, doctors apparently believe that Dadamo's theory has no scientific basis, is rarely studied, but does not cause any special harm. In some cases, it even helps stimulate the body and activate a faster metabolism.In addition, D'Adamo included truly harmful products among the banned foods for all blood types—sausages and bacon, store-bought sauces, ice cream, carbonated drinks, alcohol, and more.Well, don’t forget about the placebo effect – a person believes and loses weight.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Diet

advantage:

• A large number of permitted products;
• Easy to carry;
• Ability to create diverse and balanced menus;
• You can stick with it for a long time.

defect:

• There is no clear plan for how, when and in what quantities certain products will be consumed;
• There is no scientific basis for diet, and all conclusions are too general;
• It's another lucrative business for nutritionists and, of course, the creators themselves.

in conclusion

Practice shows that some people are actually able to lose weight on this diet. But they point out that the effects aren't long-lasting—the weight is always regained. So you have to eat right almost all your life.
