Blood type diet test log (AB)

[Colstreamer]

I'm going to go get my blood type checked today this is interesting. Father is 0- and mom is a+. After reading the book so far I'd say I have many traits of blood type O. But I can handle small amounts of oats like a half cup serving at a time. Funny thing is somedays I eat a ton and am ridiculously bloated, other days I eat a ton and am still lean as can be. I find I can plow through nuts and peanut butter like no tomorrow also and not gain weight. I sometimes will eat 2000 calories of mixed nuts in a day. Now if I eat more than 2 slices of bread daily boy I get fat and lazy. I can also eat endless fruit, dairy is a Nono for me. Guess my blood type!! Lol not trying to hijack back to you colstreamer this is just such an interesting topic! Thx for the dedication and awareness

Bro please feel free to post anything blood type diet related in this thread. I really would like to get more info and opinions on this. Stuff like you just said is really interesting, in the book I recall reading that a type O who has a parent of a different type (A in your case) can have some traits of that type inherited. It could be that you can tolerate grains due to something inherited from your mother.

There is also secretor status to consider, I'm waiting for the test results to come back to confirm whether I'm a secretor or not (I believe I am)

I'm gonna guess you're type O

Dude what is this secretor status that you speak of plz?

 

[Colstreamer]

Ok well you have your basic blood types A B or O (and of course AB the bastard love child of blood types) these different blood types have antigens specific to them which is what prevents diff blood types being transfused. In most people these antigens are secreted into other bodily fluids such as saliva. These peeps are secretor, non secretors do not and as such are more sensitive to the foods which aren't good for them.

Bader's bro who is making the documentary is a type O non-secretor and as such wheat and dairy affect him more strongly than they would a secretor of the same blood type such as Bader. It influences carbohydrate tolerance (and lack of same) as well as the immune system, non secretors are more prone to illness.

Here is some reading on the subject from the D'adamo website

And some from a different eat right for your type site

I'm still learning about this stuff and researching it which is why my explanation isn't that great.

Great explanation of the secretor CS. I don't know if I am a secretor or not. I'm probably not. But wouldn't be surprised if I was cause I've had my years of illnesses too growing up and get very sick on wheat. Dairy doesn't tend to disturb me that much but I hate it anyway.

A lot of my childhood illnesses are EASILY explained due to not eating for my blood type. As well as my extreme obesity too. My brother who is an A did not have so many problems with sickness nor was he as overweight as me.

ditto with me and my bro! regarding weight that is. neither of us got ill very often. We had to play sick to get a day off school!

I felt a bit nauseous eating my eggs thus morning. My mum always told me not to eat too many eggs, said I'd get "egg bound" I've still no idea what that is! I think I just need a change for a bit. I've been having eggs for breakfast for bleeding ages! Tomorrow I'll just have me some oats. Nice and simple.

Did a quick recheck and I'm ok with wheat, it's corn and buck wheat I'm advised to avoid.

Means I can have a baguette for lunch!
Nice!

yep wheat is off for me too. One of the few things that is. I just adapted to Rye and have always liked it. Pumpernickel too.
