fucose…..
Hi Cheryl:
Sorry, I don’t have an actual list of foods listing fucose (am not a doctor).
But fucose is: imagine the chemical structure of our blood type as antennae
projecting outward from the surface of our cells into deep space. These antennae
are made up of long chains of a repeating sugar (carbohydrates) called fucose.
Fucose forms the simplest of the blood types - type O. One sugar equals type O.
Blood type A looks just like type O cells except a type A cell has 2 antennae
coming out of it, etc for the other types. A chemical reaction occurs between
your blood and the foods consumed. Lectins are abundant and diverse proteins
found in food. They have agglutinating (gluing or sticking) properties that
affect blood. Lectins gum up interferring with digestion, insulin production,
food metabolism, hormonal balance. The key is to avoid the lectins that
agglutinate your blood type. It goes back to following food lists for type.
Bladderwrack is specifically suited for Os to help normalize sluggish metabolic
rate and enhance weight loss. Deflect is helpful.
As I learn more, I will add to this…..
Hope this has helped…..

Would the same also be true for kelp? or must it be bladderwrack. I have
had problems finding the bladderwrack so have continued taking kelp.
