Blogging by Blood Type

posted by Chattering Mind | 2:40pm Monday March 26, 2007

This is so fascinating. I just discovered it. Dr. Peter D’Adamo, author of “Eat Right 4 Your Type: The Individualized Diet Solution to Staying Healthy, Living Longer & Achieving Your Ideal Weight,” maintains a site with a fleet of good bloggers writing about their lives and diets, planned according to their blood types.

I happen to be a type O (I need some red meat and am not the best candidate for a vegan lifestyle). Do you know what you are? You can buy a blood-type determining kit for $9.95 plus postage. I’ll be posting more on this fascinating, health-transforming subject as I get deeper into it myself.

CM's Final Posts: You Can Fill the Space
Eighteen years ago, I wrote an article for a magazine that got me called in for a taped interview with a Fox TV morning news anchor. Being an effective communicator and a skillful public speaker was a dream of mine at the time. And still is. After some 30 minutes of prep with the station's hair-and-

Websites to Visit, Blogs to Read
Here are some blogs and websites I like. It's not a complete list. But it's a start. The first is called New Moon Journal and it is written by Michele Bailey-Lessirard, a life coach, collage artist, and "shamanic astrologer." On the opening page of her site, you'll find a little slide show of her am

Don't Pierce Your Belly Button
I caught the following conversation between two pretty women in the ladies' room of a Manhattan restaurant. One of the women was pregnant. And she said, "So my acupuncturist made me take the ring out of my belly button." "Really?" her friend exclaimed. "Yeah, he said, 'Let's give this baby a chance.

Instead of paying for a kit to determine your blood type you can also donate blood. That way, in addition to learning what type you are, you can help save lives. Isn’t that better?

Oh Ray, thanks for this post. Because I have been off and on anemic for years, I am not one whose blood is much desired by blood banks, so I didn’t know you could get your blood type that way. Yes, by all means give!

Here’s something from the homepage of the American Red Cross: To learn more about blood donation opportunities, visit http://www.givelife.org or call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE (1-800-448-3543).

I have been on the Blood Type Diet for years and have paid special attention to ‘beneficial’ and ‘avoid’ foods since my bout with breast cancer, 9 years ago. Not only are the ‘blood type specific’ foods important to me, it’s the herbs and supplements that are protective and part of my daily regimen. If people had a deeper understanding of the lectin(proteins found in food) piece of the puzzle in guarding their health, they would go beyond the annoyance of changing their present dietary habits to include the foods that are more positive for their specific blood type(A, O, B, Ab)

I have O type blood and I have been on this diet for going on two years. And I notice that when I don’t adhere to it my body is out of whack. This diet really works. If you will eat what you are suppose to eat and avoid what you should you will be alright. When you think about this, it is not a diet but a way of life. Pam
