Each one of us is bio-chemically and metabolically different. In America, we are the boiling pot of the world. For most of us our ancestor tree crosses over many nationalities and blood types. Therefore, even if your blood type shows to be an O, you may have a genetic coding, which may have some characterizations for food traits of a (Ex -Type A) person. Yes, It can be a little confusing on what to eat and what not too. Try eating according to your blood type, but to help you try the following also; if you eat something and you have a stomach or digestive negative reaction, take digestive enzymes when you eat that type of food if you really like the food, but if that does not help, you should consider not eating that food. If you feel tired after eating a certain food, then I feel you should eliminate that food from your diet.... Many weight problems maybe from eating foods that conflict with your specific blood type. Do I think Dr. D'Adamo is totally correct? No, there is no exact science or theory that can be stated absolutely without contradicting itself at some point. I do feel that anyone that follows the blood type eating with taking in the above additional information will gain more than they will lose in health from this approach of eating foods that truly gives your body energy, which is why you eat in the first place.

Blood Group O was the first blood type to be identified, although how we know this is anyone�s guess � we�re talking about our hunter-gatherer ancestors who were around in 50,000 B.C.. Nevertheless, Dr D�Adamo believes because our type O ancestors survived and thrived on a high-protein, meat-based diet, that�s the type of diet blood group O's should follow in the 21st century.

Next came the emergence of blood type A, sometime around 15,000 B.C.. By this time, our ancestors� hunter-gathering days were over and instead they started to settle into farming-type communities. The creation of blood type A around this time meant our ancestors did well on a vegetarian-based diet. And again, Dr D�Adamo recommends that blood group A�s should today follow a veggie diet.

Blood type B supposedly evolved around 10,000 B.C. thanks to our nomadic ancestors. They left their farms and started wandering the land, constantly moving from place to place. Consequently, Dr D'Adamo's theory goes, blood group B�s today can get away with eating a varied diet that consists of most foods including meat, dairy, grains and vegetables.

Finally, came blood type AB, which evolved just 1,000 years ago. Dr D'Adamo thinks this blood type helped our ancestors make the transition to modern times. Meaning that people with blood group AB can eat a mixture of the foods suitable for both blood group A and blood group B.

Think of a lectin as a protein containing a key that fits a certain type of lock. This lock is a specific type of carbohydrate. All life forms, plant and animal, insect and fungus have cell membranes that contain carbohydrates that sit within and project from the membrane. If a lectin with the right key comes in contact with one of these 'locks' on the gut wall, artery, gland or organ it 'opens the lock', thus it is disrupting the membrane and damages the cell and may initiate a cascade of immune and autoimmune events leading to cell death.

According to Dr. Peter D�damo, author of Eat Right For Your Type, a chemical reaction occurs between your blood and the foods you eat. This reaction is part of your genetic inheritance. This reaction is caused by a factor called Lectins. Lectins, abundant and diverse proteins found in foods, have agglutinating properties that affect your blood. So when you eat a food containing protein lectins that are incompatible with your blood type antigen, the lectins target an organ or bodily system and begin to agglutinate blood cells in that area. Different lectins target different organs and body system.

Fortunately, most lectins found in the diet are not quite so life threatening, although they can cause a variety of other problems, especially if they are specific to a particular blood type. For the most part your immune systems protect you from lectins. The body sloughs off Ninety-five percent of the lectins you absorb from your typical diets. But at least five percent of the lectins you eat are filtered into the bloodstream and different reactions in different organs.

Your blood type diet is the restoration of your natural genetic rhythm. Your blood type diet works because you are able to follow a clear, logical, scientifically researched plan based on your cellular profile. Each food groups are divided into three categories: Highly beneficial (food that acts like Medicine), Foods allowed (food that are no harm to the blood type) and Foods not allowed (food that acts like a Poison)
