The sturdy and alert Type
Bs are usually able to resist many of the most severe diseases common to modern
life, such as heart disease and cancer. In fact, a Type B who carefully
follows the recommended diet can often bypass severe disease and live a long
and healthy life. Type Bs are more prone to
immune-system disorders such as multiple
sclerosis, lupus, and chronic fatigue syndrome.
The Type B Diet is balance
and wholesome, including a wide variety of foods.
For Type Bs, the biggest
factors in weight gain are corn, buckwheat, lentils, peanuts and sesame seeds.
These foods have different lectin that affect the efficiency of the metabolic
process, resulting in fatigue, fluid retention, and hypoglycemia. The gluten
lectin in wheat germ and whole wheat products also adds to the problems cause
by other metabolism-slowing foods.
It is important to leave
off chicken for Type Bs. Chicken contains a Blood Type B agglutinating
lectin in its muscle tissue, which attack the bloodstream and potentially lead
to strokes and immune disorders. Type Bs thrive
on deep-ocean fish, but should avoid all shellfish. The shellfish
contain lectins that are disruptive to the Type B system.
Type B is the only blood
type that can fully enjoy a variety of dairy
foods. Most nuts and seeds
(especially peanuts, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds) are not
advised for Type Bs., they contain lectins that interfere with Type
B insulin production.
Wheat
is not tolerated well by most Type Bs.
They contain a lectin that reuce insulin efficiency and failure to stimulate
fat "burning". Rye contains a lectin that settles in the vascular
system, causing blood disorders and potentially strokes. Corn
and buckwheat are major factors in Type B weight gain, they contribute to a
sluggish metabolism, insulin irregularity, fluid retention, and fatigue.
Eliminate
tomatoes completely from Type B diet.
It has lectins that irritate the stomach lining. Fruits and vegetables are generally
well tolerated and should be taken generously.
