Eat Right 4 Your Type will help you design a total health program that's right for your blood type. If your blood type is O: * Eat meat (high protein, low carbohydrate). * Cut out wheat and most other grains. * Engage in vigorous aerobic exercise. * Your risk factors for ulcers and inflammatory diseases such as arthritis increase if you eat incorrectly for your type. If your blood type is A: * You should be a vegetarian (high carbohydrate, low fat). * Engage in gentle exercise such as yoga or golf. * Meditate to deal with stress. * Your risk factors for cancer and heart disease increase if you eat incorrectly for your type. If your blood type is B: * You should have the most varied diet of all the blood types, one including meat; yours is the only blood type that does well with dairy products. * Engage in exercise such as moderate swimming or walking. * Your risk for slow-growing viruses that attack the nervous system increases if you eat incorrectly for your type. If your blood type is AB: * You have most of the benefits and intolerances of types A and B. * Engage in calming exercises and relaxation techniques. * You have the friendliest immune system of all the blood types.The Individualized Diet Solution to Staying Healthy, Living Longer and Achieving Your Ideal Weight "What would you say if I told you that the secret to healthy, vigorous, and disease-free living might be as simple as knowing your blood type," asks Dr. Peter D'Adamo, and in Eat Right 4 Your Type, he shows us the simple answer.
