BT diet is really a misnomer - it isn't really about eating to lose
weight, though that is usually what happens when you only eat foods
suitable for your personal genetics.
My B+ friend found she easily lost weight eating a paleo style diet,
avoiding grains and dairy products [she had been a vegetarian from age
50 to 70 when she then developed persistent atrial fibrillation - now
all but cured under her new regime] ....this seems to suit both O's
and B's but not most A's.... info from the forum of
www.yourhealthbase.com and paleo website www.paleodiet.com

Hi Joyce, ... Fair enough. Weight loss seems to be one of the diet's selling points, though. If I click "Blood Type Diet" on the front page of dadamo.com, I...

Hi Flick, ... I'm not sure I understand this completely. Are you saying that genes influence thought patterns, so they might make various people in my family...
Thanks for your post, Pete, and insights into the genetic aspects of body mass. When Flick wrote "the genes are indeed effected by patterns in the family...
We are too acidic!!!!! Almost everything the modern diet includes is acidic. This is why we are so obese. If we could raise the pH of our body, then our body...
Interetsingly, I tested myself a few months ago for acidity and It was in the normal range.... I did it shortly after coming off the diet progamme i was on at...
Hi Karaionizes, ... It's quite easy to raise the pH of your body temporarily, though I wouldn't recommend trying it. Just breathe very rapidly for a little...
Hello there, Exercise does increase your pH or how you call it, hyperventilating. Raising your body's heart rate and increasing oxygen is a good idea, but not...
Hi Kara, ... If you hyperventilate, you reduce the amount of carbon dioxide which is in your blood, and this makes your system more alkaline. On the other...
Bill Snape is unable to post directly just now, but has asked me to pass on these observations.... "Pete is quite correct in what he says, pH is tightly...
Hello there, Let me quickly point out that OH- is not a hydroxyl free radical, so you can't go on with this argument. OH- is a free radical scavenger. A...

Hi Kara, ... So you've changed lots of things and now you feel better? Of course I'm pleased for you, but it doesn't tell us whether it would work for anyone...
Lemons are acidic, Pete, pH aprox 2.2 to 2.4. In fact most things we eat are acidic including (quite surprisingly) cow's milk pH approx 6.3 to 6.6. One of a...

Hello Kara, whilst I appreciate you probably know your subject far better than I do or anyone else who hasn't actually studied it from the inside, I would like...
Hi Kara, ... The problem is, you're starting out by assuming that an acidic diet is unnatural. You are then assuming that the body's mechanism for dealing...
The modern, acidic diet is unnatural. Is drinking soda natural? What about alcohol? The pH of soda is 2.5. Take the experiment of cleaning a dirty penny...
Hi Kara, How does a highly acidic lemon become alkaine when eaten? In fact all fruits are acidic, something to do with the CITRIC ACID content, do they all...

Hi Mike, ... I can see that this is possible. You could oxidise the citric acid, for example, which would remove its acidic properties. We have laws like ...
Hi Pete, Acid regulation takes place in the kidneys and the main players are glutamine (an amino acid) and sodium. Glutamine doesn't get a mention by the...
