Eating foods based on blood type
The blood type diet requires a regimen called compliance. This refers to eating “beneficials.” Beneficials are chosen for each blood type, based upon the lectins, or molecules, which the food contains.
On this diet, people are defined as being “secretors” or “nonsecretors.” These terms refer to an individual’s ability to secrete blood type antigens into bodily fluids. What you eat is partly based upon your secretor status. This is why the diet is known as an individualized plan.
Blood type diets may yield weight loss and other positive results because they’re highly restrictive. They also eliminate foods which are known to adversely affect health.
However, there’s no scientific evidence linking a person’s blood type to their need to avoid, or eat, specific foods.
If you do decide to follow this plan, make sure to eat as wide a range of foods as possible so you get enough nutrition. You can also talk to your doctor about your individual risk of developing disease. They can help you make lifestyle changes to ensure you’re living your healthiest life.
