There isn't any real science to back it up. The blood type diet tells me to avoid beans. I tell it to shove it.0
-
It's a no from me also.0
-
My thoughts are you should eat however and whatever you want.0
-
No, apparently I am not supposed to eat meat. I already don't eat red meat. I however do enjoy the occasional turkey burger.0
-
I don't know my blood type. Does that mean I can't eat anything, or I can eat whatever I want on this diet?0

Sounds gross0

I'm gonna guess that no matter what your blood type is, the diet involves lowering calories and increasing exercise.0

If I remember correctly it goes like this:
Type A: You probably like to eat foods A, B, and C. You should no longer eat those foods.
Type B: You probably like to eat foods D, E, and F. You should not longer eat those foods.
Etc.0 -

Thank you, you've just saved a lot of people the expense of buying the book.
The blood type diet works on the same quack logic that some autism parenting circles push about gluten-free/casein-free elimination diets. "If you/your autistic child love(s) this food, it's a clear trufax scientific indication that it's EBBILLL and making you fat/autistic. Be ever mindful of what you enjoy. Enjoyment is of the devil and literally pathological. You stop enjoying things right now and you will be magically cured of literally everything."

Well I didn't buy the book either so that may not be accurate. :laugh:
That's just how I remember it from the last time I googled it for one of these threads. :flowerforyou:
And yes, eat what you want. Life's too short.0 -
A friend recommended this "diet" to me years ago. I researched it and yeah, uh, No. Beyond the fact it would have me eating many foods I don't care for and or bother my stomach, it's just silly.0
-
It told me to eat the foods I already liked, and to avoid the foods that I didn't eat or made me ill, however I feel that is likely coincidence since the diet has neither scientific nor overwhelming circumstantial evidence backing it up.0
-
is this that diet where you eat less and exercise more?0
-
Its a no from me. I toyed with the idea - but I got confuddled with conflicting research and left it alone

This "diet" is not meant for humans. It is only meant for vampires as an excuse to use blood type profiling when selecting their prey0 -
I bought the "eat right for your type" in 2001, I was single and a graduate student by the time so I had plenty of time. The foods that are in the avoid section were the foods that always give me trouble like milk, red meat, tomatoes and such but these 3 really give me health issues. Anyways, I decided to give it a try and the results were beyond my expectations. My digestive system worked magically, no more bloating, everyday going to regular bathroom visits and after the visits I had this comfortable, relieved feeling in my stomach area which I had never had before. Apparently this situation caused a very good weight loss. Definitely I felt very energetic, my appareance changed a lot. But then life happened! I started working then got married, then had a baby and so on.
I am still skeptical about the concept but it worked for me once, even today I try to avoid most of those avoid category foods.
One thing I realized about this diet is that, generally cancer patients or patients with life threatening illnesses tend to follow this diet and just because of my own experience I can relate to that.0 -

Actually, there's over 200 blood group systems. I'm not being nitpicky, it's just another way to show how ridiculous this diet is. Your blood type has nothing to do with your body type/size/diet, etc (I'm a medical laboratory scientist)0
