Just had a look.
Type A blood: A meat-free diet based on
fruits and vegetables, beans and legumes, and whole grains -- ideally, organic and fresh, because D'Adamo says people with type A blood have a sensitive immune system.
This is just the opposite of me. I also don't have a sensitive immune system.
Haha. Which is why I don't follow it anymore. Avocados are avoids according to him. It's rocket fuel for me. I just gravitate toward O foods. No worries there. I'm sure the biggest thing I did was cut out all grains and dairy but Im sure most people would fare better doing that especially if they have digestive issues. I now have some cheese every night with my wine and no troubles. It's the liquidy dairy like cream, milk, sour cream etc that I have trouble with. As well as very aged cheese like Parmesan, pecorino, Romano. Just happy to have some cheese again!! And it helps smooth the carbs in wine haha. So it's required. My new fav is melted havarti with basil oil and fresh basil. Or something like Colby jack with my concocted spicy seasoning.
My mom does act like an A. Burger with a bun and she's face down asleep on her plate. She doesn't like fat much and loves carbs. Go figure. Chocoholic to say the least. She s very healthy. Very. Just turned 87 and you'd think she was 67. My dad's another story.
My daughters stomach is worse than mine. Not celiac but buckles over in severe pain at the tiniest crumb. She went paleo and is much better but eats containers upon containers of fruit. I know that bothers her but I guess we're all only willing to give up so much and draw the line somewhere.
And there seems to be two types of type A. One does better more carnivorous and one vegetarian. Too many discrepancies in his work. Which is another reason why I stopped.
At the end of the day, our bodies know best !!
