The power supply system for blood group Blood type   It offers people to eat certain foods and avoid others, based on their blood type: O, A, B or AB. Nutrition for blood group can come to those who want to find a meal plan that does not require counting calories or grams of fat, while others may find adherence to this diet is challenging.

Dr. Peter D'Adamo, a naturopath, who developed the technique, said that blood groups affect the digestive system, and that some foods are good for people with a blood group, and dangerous to others.

Moreover, D'Adamo believes that the group of human blood and determine its susceptibility to certain diseases, and on what exercise he should perform.

How does diet

D'Adamo rejects the idea that one diet fits all. If there are four blood groups, he said, why there should be four special food plan?

Proper diet for your blood has to lectins food proteins that each blood group learns in their own way, according to D'Adamo.

If you eat food containing lectins that do not match your blood type, you may experience swelling, inflammation, slow metabolism, and even diseases such as cancer. The best way to avoid this - eat foods intended for your blood.

All of the products according to this diet, divided into three categories:

• Very helpful
• Neutral
• Those that should be avoided

Useful for your blood products act as a cure, neutral - as food and foods that should be avoided, act as a poison, according to D'Adamo.

For example, people with first blood group (O) should avoid whole wheat and wheat germ, because, according to D'Adamo, for these people have gluten - like having to fill the car with petrol with the wrong octane rating. It interferes with his work.

What the experts say nutritionists

Doctors nutritionists believe that the recommendations in the framework of the diet, in general, correct. D'Adamo, for example, does not say that you need to refrain from fruits and vegetables, but its specific recommendations based on blood group, are not supported by science.

In general, experts do not recommend this diet because they fear that people will limit their food, without taking into account their individual needs and tastes.

Critics also refute the theory D'Adamo that there is a connection between blood type and specific diseases. Although this theory has long been studied, the findings have not been made.

Why is blood group diet so many supporters? It is believed that a diet - it is an area where many fall into despair. Diet on blood groups seems to be more evidence-based than others.

But most experts deny that it has a solid scientific basis.
