Diet by blood group: for the first and second groups

• The essence of the diet for the blood group
• The evolution of the blood groups
• The first group's blood type( type 0)
• The second group's blood type diet( type A)

The blood group diet,the author of which is the American doctor-naturopath Peter J. Adamo, gained wide popularity all over the world, as it helps not only to lose weight, but also to normalize the metabolism in the body, to prevent the development of various diseases and to ensure an excellent state of health.

The essence of the diet for the blood group ^

The essence of the diet for the blood group is that people with different types of blood are genetically inherent in various assimilability of the same products.

The author of the diet noted that, for example, vegetarian diets recommended by many nutritionists do not bring positive results to everyone - for some people they are not only useless, but they also considerably worsen the state of health.

Moreover, his studies have shown that some foods that help to lose weight in a person with one blood group may be neutral or even harmful to people with another blood group. It is because of the incorrectly selected individual menu, according to Dr. Adamo, a person gets fat, sick and damages his health.

Since weight gain is usually the result of a metabolic disorder, a properly formulated diet excludes from the diet exactly those products that are toxic to a particular person, are poorly digested and can not be digested.

Thus, a diet for blood group, eliminating "harmful" food, helps not only to lose weight, but also to cleanse toxins, which are known to be stored in fat stores. In addition, when nourishing with natural products appropriate to their type of blood, the entire gastrointestinal tract is healed and allergies disappear.

Evolution of blood groups ^

The evolution of blood groups( from the first to the fourth) occurred gradually over many centuries as a result of adaptation of the human digestive and immune system to changing natural conditions.

• So, the first blood group is the most "ancient" and originally all the people on Earth were its owners. In those days they were engaged exclusively in hunting, eating the meat of killed animals( protein food), so their digestive tract was ideally suited for its digestion.
• Then, as the instruments of labor and production progressed, mankind began to engage in farming, as a result of which vegetable food appeared in their diet and a "vegetarian" second blood group was formed.
• After domestication of wild animals, people learned to receive and use dairy products, which resulted in a significant change in nutrition, which led to the appearance of a third blood group.
• The fourth group of blood appeared relatively recently( about 1500 years ago) as a result of mixing of the second and third groups;it is the rarest and occurs only in 5% of the world's population.

Based on this classification, Dr. Peter Adamo developed separate diets for weight loss and health maintenance for all four varieties:

• people of the first blood group need to eat as "hunters", that is, predominantly meat protein foods;
• for people of the second blood group ideally suited vegetarian diets, as in "farmers";
• representatives of the third blood group for weight loss should eat as "nomads" - low-fat dairy products;
• and "new people" with the fourth blood group will help to lose weight diets on sour-milk products, seafood and vegetables.

First group diet( type 0) ^

Representatives of the first group( 33% of the world's population) are genetically born meat eaters, they have an increased acidity of the gastric juice, due to which the protein food is quickly and fully processed and not delayed as fatty deposits. Therefore, the basis of the diet for the first group of blood should be lean meat( except pork and goose) - at least 5-6 times a week, fish and seafood. In addition, seaweed, liver, greens, lettuce, spinach, radish, radish, broccoli are very useful.

The following food products are categorically not suitable for representatives of the first blood group:

• Corn, lentils, legumes and all products from wheat, as they block the production of insulin, thereby slowing the metabolism and increasing weight;
• All types of cabbage( except broccoli) and oat products that suppress the production of thyroid hormones( with a characteristic hypothyroidism symptoms) may be undesirable in the diet for the first blood group and slow the metabolism.

For better production of thyroid hormones( thyroid hormones) it is necessary to replace the usual salt with iodized salt and actively include iodine-containing foods - seaweed, seafood, lettuce, radish, radish and daikon in the diet.

In connection with the high acidity of gastric juice, people with the first blood group often get ulcerative stomach disease, intestinal disorders and allergies, since the mucous membranes eventually become covered with ulcers.

Therefore, the first blood group diet should include vegetables and fruits that have an alkaline reaction:

• Artichoke, kohlrabi, broccoli, ground pear, onion, garlic, parsley, horseradish, parsnip, spinach and beet leaves are among such vegetables.
• It is recommended to include prunes, prunes, plums, dark cherries from fruit, as well as lemon and grapefruit, which show an alkaline reaction in the stomach despite their sour taste.

And from strawberries, oranges, tangerines and strawberries should be discarded, since these fruits excessively increase the acidity of gastric juice.

The same recommendations apply to vegetable and fruit juices, beverages and seasonings:

• Cabbage and apple juices, black tea, coffee, as well as ketchup, vinegar and mayonnaise, are enemies of the stomach with high acidity.
• It is recommended to drink plenty of water, green tea and decoction from rose hips, mint or linden.

Dairy products should be used with caution, as the body is not adapted to their full absorption:

• So, whole milk and processed cheeses should be excluded from the diet of the diet completely, and kefir, low-fat sour cream and yogurt can be included in the menu not more than 1-2 timesin Week.
• Eggs as a valuable source of protein can be eat 3-4 times a week, but not more than 1 piece per day.

Diet for the second blood group( type A) ^

The diet for the second blood group includes mainly fresh and natural herbal products( mainly cereals and vegetables), since the type A digestive system is ideally suited for eating vegetarian food and very poorlydigests and assimilates meat and dairy products.

Thus, dairy products, especially whole milk, inhibit the process of metabolism in the body and cause multiple allergic reactions, and therefore in the diet of their diets it is advisable to replace them with soy or sour-milk.

Because of the reduced acidity inherent in people of this type, their stomach is not able to digest meat, so its use contributes to the deposition of fat and the slowing of metabolism.

• Therefore, if you can not completely exclude it from the diet, limit the use of chicken or turkey, or rather go on unsalted fish, for example, perch, carp, cod, trout, sardine or mackerel.
• In addition, because of the tender mucous membrane of the stomach, it is necessary to exclude from the diet menu acute and salty foods, sausages and smoked products, pepper, vinegar, ketchup, mayonnaise, spices, sour fruits and berries, potatoes.
• The source of protein for type A should be soy products, eggs and cheese.
• You can eat cereals from whole grains( except wheat), vegetables( except potatoes, tomatoes, olives and eggplants) in an unlimited quantity, fruits( except bananas that are too caloric and heavy for digestion) and legumes that are more useful for pre-germinating.
• Salads from fresh vegetables are preferably filled with olive or linseed oil.
• Bread on a diet to use rye or on the basis of germinated wheat.
• Very useful are vegetable and fruit juices, for example from apricot, cherry, plum, carrot, grapefruit, pineapple, celery.
• In addition, to prevent the cause of constipation and remove mucus from the intestine, it is recommended to drink plenty of water( at least two liters per day), and drink a glass of warm water with freshly squeezed lemon juice every morning on an empty stomach.

People of type A blood usually have a weak immune system, open to all infections, a sensitive and tender digestive tract, as well as an increased sensitivity of the nervous system.

They are often ill with cardiac and oncological diseases, and also have a tendency to gallbladder pathologies, liver and symptoms of type 1 diabetes mellitus.

For them, the recommended diet for the second blood group is extremely important, as with the vegetarian diet the immune and digestive systems will work most efficiently and can prevent the appearance of symptoms of cholelithiasis and other serious diseases.
