Blood type diet

Thanks Lilla, Leanne, and Sarah. I have never tried walnut or grape
seed oil, but I will try them. I bet if I put it on once or twice and
then let the seasoned pans take over, I will be fine.
Thomas, the idea to eat more protein is somewhat hard to adjust to. I
mean, that afterall, I guess I have been conditioned to think of meat
as something that you should have in small portions. You know, the
’size of a deck of playing cards.’ And then fill up on carbs. After
having lost all the arthritic pain in my knees within a few weeks, by
just eliminating most grains (occasionally a little kamut), and upping
the meat, I feel so good, that I have been back running. Slowly, but
running. Except for dark chocolate, I am not a big sweet eater. I make
the kids pancakes and make me a frittata.
But look at a t-bone steak. It is about 8 oz. I eat it with a lot of
veggies. It is still a hard concept to adjust to but it tastes good as
I am finding the right balance for me.

Hi Thomas
Hang In There……..
So, not eating a lot of protein…Is this a problem for them? I am trying to
find the line for myself. Do we want lots of protein? Have been advised to
be strict wih eating-also have Insulin Resistance.
Do you assist or advise people to eat less protein or is it twice or more per
day (protein) for even sort of delicates like myself.

My kids love pancakes, so I make them with all o.k. grains which I
throw into my grain grinder to make fresh flour. I used to brush
canola oil onto the hot cast iron pan and made wonderful pancakes as a
treat. My question is: given all the controversy over trans fats,
etc., what kind of oil should I use so that the pancakes won’t stick?
Someone suggested butter or lard (from free range animals, of course).
I’m really not into no-stick pans, so I welcome suggestions.
Also, what do people use for sauteeing, as I heard that heating olive
oil is not healthy either? But isn’t this what the Mediterranean folks
use?
Thanks for any help.

Coming out of lurker mode to comment on the sugar ‘debate’ for
non-secretors.
I believe that both Thomas and Tabitha are correct. I recall Dr. D
stating that for healthy people following the blood type diets, 80-90%
compliance is acceptable. So for those people a little bit of sugar
would probably not be a problem, if eaten occasionally, even for
non-secretors, just as Thomas stated.
If you are a person who is sensitive to sugar, trying to lose weight, or
dealing with any health problems, then Tabitha’s advice to completely
avoid sugar (and all other avoids) would be the best course of action.
Corrections are welcome - if I have this wrong! Debra

Does anyone know if emu meat has been tested to see if it is beneficial for O’s?

Thanks!

Elize, good for you in finding a veget. diet that works ! ,,, and Deb, still

have unused leeks in your freezer! CB, you just amaze me with your no
nonsense, common sense feedback and great dedicatioon towards this diet, etc.
Thanks all for making this group so worthwhile! Love, Leslie

<<Despite being a non-secretor (at least if my NAP test is correct), I am not giving up sugar (i.e. chocolate) unless it starts causing serious health issues. Life is too short to not have some sinful luxuries…

Stephen,

I totally agree!! As a non-secretor we have been asked to give up a lot, but in the end it’s all about a healthy balance. I focus my meals on healthy proteins and vegetables so if I want a yummy piece of non-dairy dark chocolate now and again I’m going to have it!!!!!

Besides, happiness is very healthy

Or better yet! Try Jenne-O’s turkey bacon! Fry it in some olive oil
otherwise it will burn. This is because it contains so little fat. Fry
until crispy! Leanne.

Just wondering if all the errors of the secretor test are where a person tested
out to be non-secretor by blood and
secretor by saliva? any errors the other way?

An HB substitute for soy sauce in marinades is:
dulse
water
Put in the blender and mix until dulse is well blended. When I did
it, the dulse never completely broke down, tiny solid pieces of
dulse
remained. You can either leave them or strain it. I just left them.
Add more or less dulse depending on how thick or strong you want it
to be.
Dulse is very salty like soy sauce. I’ve only tried it in a marinade
and couldn’t tell the difference. I don’t know how it would work in
a
recipe where the soy sauce was carrying the flavor, like in a
broccoli, beef recipe. May try it sometime.
I like to eat dulse plain, but not too much at a time because it’s
