Diet according to blood group

The diet is based on the principles of naturopathic physician James D'Adamo, who says that human blood type and food are closely related. The blood type diet is based on the postulate that during the evolution of mankind, the composition of the blood changed and was closely related to the type of food consumed by the vast majority of the population in a given period of time.

Despite the presence of a certain logic in this statement, there is no scientific basis based on evidence for particular food by blood type. Some idea of food correspondence for people with different blood types is given in the table below for foods by blood type.

Diet for 1 blood group

The diet for 1 positive blood group is based on the inclusion in the diet of mainly products containing proteins of animal origin. In the diet of people of this blood group, it is necessary to include low-fat varieties of red meat (beef / lamb), offal (heart, liver, lungs), turkey, sea / river fish (herring, linden, trout. , halibut, perch, salmon, mackerel, cod, sardines, pike), excluding salted, smoked and pickled fish.

Other products containing animal protein (dairy products, chicken eggs) are poorly digested, with the exception of cottage cheese and can be consumed in very limited quantities. It is recommended to replace them with soy milk / tofu cottage cheese, however soy products can be used as a supplement, but not as a base.

The blood type 1 diet includes foods that contribute to weight loss - artichoke, Chinese cabbage, broccoli, spinach, Jerusalem artichoke, beet leaves, leeks, radishes, spinach, broccoli, parsley, garlic, horseradish, squash, plums, figs. Neutral fruit vegetables include mushrooms, zucchini, daikon, ginger, fennel, tomato, fennel, quince, watermelon, pear, apricot, peach, cherry, eggplant, grape.

Poor and undesirable digestion for weight loss: eggplant, avocado, cauliflower / red cabbage, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower, black olives, potatoes, tangerines, oranges, strawberries, strawberries, melon. Of the drinks, linden / rose tea, plum and pineapple juice are especially helpful as they speed up metabolism. It is not recommended to consume chocolate, ice cream, strong coffee, cola, black tea.

Dietary recommendations for people with this blood type are given regardless of whether they have Rh positive or negative factor. The diet for the first Rh-positive blood group is similar to the diet for the Rh-negative blood group. Below is a table that systematizes the list of recommended, neutral and prohibited products for people with 1 blood type.

Particularly useful are: trout, carp, peacock, perch, white fish, cod, mackerel, sardines. Fish is recommended to eat along with vegetables. Dairy products, with the exception of kefir, are also not desirable in the diet. Chicken eggs in quantities 1-2 pieces per week. From cereals are useful: buckwheat, whole wheat grains, brown rice, bread made from whole wheat grains, but you can not abuse cereal products - 2-3 times a week.

The menu for the second positive blood group should be dominated by vegetables and fruits, raw and cooked. It is especially recommended to include in the diet of broccoli, garlic, squash, chicory, green beans, spinach, onions, carrots, apricots, plums, grapefruit, berries, strawberries, lemon, cherries, pineapple, raspberry. According to reviews, the best effect is achieved when you eat fruits that grow in the region of your residence. Various nuts (peanuts), seeds, green tea are extremely useful.
