HAVE you ever wondered how some people can consume lots of meat and dairy products, and not put on an ounce?
Or have you recently felt bloated and fatigued after enjoying a bowl of pasta?
How is it some people can easily attain a toned and svelte physique from chilling out to gentle yoga moves, as opposed to those who possess the discipline to slog it out on those scary cardiovascular machines in the gym?
The answers to many of those questions could be found through your ancestral roots - showing a fascinating relationship between your blood type, diet and exercise.
Cheryl Cole, Demi Moore, Liz Hurley and Courteney Cox follow the blood type diet, which says lectins (or sugar-binding proteins that follow food consumption) react differently according to your blood type.
Dr Peter D'Adamo credits the blood type diet with improved digestion, weight loss, less bloating and disease; increased longevity and a more balanced physical and emotional state.
A naturopath, he has sold 11million copies of the New York Times bestseller Eat Right For Your Type. He says the four blood types, O, A, B and AB, offer a genetic heritage as to which foods we should eat and avoid.
Blood contains antigens, which react either positively or otherwise to certain foods. Each blood group, according to Dr D'Adamo, should stick to and avoid certain foods.
It is a way of eating and understanding your body's needs in order to achieve physical and mental health.
TYPE 0
O Types were the original hunter/gatherers, the foremost prototype 30,000 years ago. Dr D'Adamo believes they thrive on a lifestyle of intense physical activity and a high-protein diet. O types have a high stomach-acid content, which allows them to digest meat easily. However, they might be prone to ulcers and thyroid problems. al n ch t ht Diet: Foods that agree with Os include red meat (beef, lamb, venison, veal). Fresh sea co ma fuvakab seawater fish (such as cod, herring and mackerel) help thyroid function while good vegetables and fruits are broccoli, spinach, kale, plums, prunes and figs, which balance stomach acidity. Os are often intolerant to wheat and should avoid it. Exercise: Suited to intense physical activities - ideally martial arts, aerobics and running three times a week for 30 to 40 minutes.
TYPE A
A types originated in Africa but moved into Europe to cultivate crops and breed livestock. They might become prone to heart disease or diabetes. A types have naturally high levels of the stress hormone cortisol and should avoid Diet: A types are suited to a vegetarian diet and should include plenty of organic and natural food. Vegetables, grains, fruit, beans, seafood, soy protein, nuts, seeds and vegetable oils will assist weight loss but limit red meat and dairy.
Exercise: A types need centring and gentle workouts such as yoga, Tai Chi and meditative or breathing exercises for 30 minutes, three times a week. Aerobics might be a preference but don't overdo it.
TYPE B
B Types developed high in the Himalayas, in the region of today's India and Pakistan. Traditionally, they had a diet rich in both dairy and meat products through a lifestyle of herding. Memory loss in later years can be avoided by active mind work such as crosswords or learning a new language. Diet: This balanced omnivore is suited to meat and dairy, including eggs, cheese, beans, fruit and vegetables. They are less suited to nuts, seeds, corn, wheat and peanuts.
Exercise: Moderate physical exercise will assist mental and physical wellbeing. Hiking, tennis, golf, swimming and cycling all aid in balancing stress and fitness levels.
TYPE AB
About 12 centuries old, this blood group is the newest evolutionary group. Dr D'Adamo claims this is the most biologically complex group - more a result of the intermingling of races than their environment. Anaemia could become an issue, but this blood group is the least likely to suffer from allergies. Diet: A mixture of the A and B types, ABs should avoid caffeine and alcohol when stressed and use seafood (salmon, sardines and tuna), dairy and green vegetables for wellbeing and to assist weight loss. They should avoid red meat, seeds and corn. Exercise: A combination of the calming A-type yoga, meditation regimes and the more active B exercise groups will balance AB's, who will achieve physical and emotional balance as a result.
