Blood group diet: benefits and features

The blood type feeding method was developed by the American naturopathist Peter D'Adamo. The doctor observed the patients and observed that these or other foods have a positive or negative effect on the condition of people with different blood groups.

Peter D'Adamo proposed a blood group classification for the diet.

  • The first 0 (I) are people who make up one third of the world's population. The first blood group is considered the oldest. People with this blood type prefer a meat diet.
  • The second A (II) began to appear during the transition of man from hunting to agriculture. It is considered vegetarian.
  • The third B (III) was created as a settlement of people on all continents. People with this blood type eat almost everything.
  • Fourth EU (IV) - about 3% of the world's population. Representatives of this group are also omnivores, only their dietary restrictions are less.

D'Adamo blood group nutrition is based on the following principles:

  • The diet is appropriate for the type of people according to blood type. You can only eat foods that are genetically approved for the human body. Unwanted products will lead to the appearance of excess weight and the development of pathologies.
  • Physical activity. Certain physical activities and sports are considered appropriate for different representatives of blood groups.
  • Use of food supplements. According to D'Adamo, proper nutrition limits the intake of a number of nutrients and vitamins. It affects the general condition of the body and especially the composition of the blood (decrease or increase in hemoglobin). Therefore, it is worth consuming supplements to prevent deficiency of essential nutrients.

  • nutritional deficiencies may occur (supplementation is recommended);
  • only blood type is given much attention and individual differences are not taken into account;

Nutrition recommendations for people with blood problems

nutrition in the blood according to erythrocytes and blood group

Blood disorders affect a person's health and quality of life. Knowing the cause of the appearance, these deviations must be eliminated. If they are caused by a lack of nutrients or an excess of harmful substances, you should follow a special diet before consulting your doctor.

The most common blood disorder is low or high hemoglobin levels. Oxygen saturation of the body suffers from a decrease in hemoglobin or an increase in its norm. Every organism needs potassium and iron to properly transport oxygen to the cells. Consumption of iron-containing products and drugs that increase its level will help to increase hemoglobin. To increase hemoglobin in the blood, the diet should include 150 g of protein, 100 g of fat, 350 g of carbohydrates, 50 mg of iron, 20 mg of zinc, 5 mg of copper, B vitamins. To increase hemoglobin, you need to eat the following foods:

  • beef, rabbit, chicken, turkey;
  • beef and chicken liver;
  • buckwheat;
  • chocolate, cocoa;
  • eggs;
  • dried apricots, plums;
  • pomegranate, apple.

High hemoglobin levels can cause a heart attack or stroke because the blood becomes viscous and thick, causing blood to clot and plaque to form. A diet with increased hemoglobin should be beaten exactly the opposite. To reduce its level, it is necessary to exclude red meat and offal, grains, berries and red fruits from the diet. A diet that lowers hemoglobin also eliminates lipids, which cause high blood cholesterol. Blood saturated with triglycerides affects the development of heart disease. Taking reducing medications and multivitamin complexes will also help normalize iron protein levels.

People with thrombocytosis or thrombocytopenia also need nutritional regulation. With high platelets, you need to drink as much fluid as possible. The daily menu should include fresh cucumbers, seaweed, nuts, fish. Under the influence of organic acids, platelets are destroyed. Cranberry tea or fruit drink, grape, apple juice will help to reduce their level.

A diet rich in protein, carbohydrates and iron will eliminate low platelet levels. Chopped, diet food is worth eating. Need to eat buckwheat, bananas, spinach, greens, cabbage, apples, pomegranates, red meat.

With an increase in amylase in the blood, you should consult a doctor immediately, as this may indicate a malfunction of the pancreas, which adversely affects the digestive process and the condition of the body as a whole.

It is possible to adjust body weight according to individual characteristics of the body, ie blood type. Each of the four blood groups has specific dietary preferences. Using them, you can easily get rid of extra pounds with a special diet.
