Demeter Bio-Dynamic food vs. other
Does anyone know, whether D Adamo has tested
the effect of food qualified as Demeter.
Demeter is the highest quality food available
and is consedered the healthiest amongst all.
In fact many food problems vanish by eating this
kind of food - it is cure not just food (as Rudolph
Steiner in old 1920s said).
One friend of mine gave a woman having serious alergenic
problems with strawberry and 12 more food choices.
As this friend gave the woman the exact foods that she should
avoid, except the foods were Demeter Bio-Dynamically produced,
the same woman suffered no problems.
So. Does Conventionaly produced food and also some organic foods
induce food problems with blood types that Demeter doesn’t?
Has anyone asked something similar Dr.Adamo?
There is also one more thing…
Why do we (O’s) have to eat so much protein coming from animal
sources. Doesn’t anyone think of being reincarnated as lower species
because of that (killing so many animals). Durring the evolution human
had to start eating better foods and becoming more responsible for
other animals and Nature. How will we raise to a higer grade if still
killing so many animals for ‘meals’?

You have to kill to live whether it’s animal or vegetable. To stay healthy,
the only viable source of protein is from animals. Following your reasoning,
do vegans come back as stalks of corn or blades of wheat?

Speaking as a former vegetarian (for cruelty reasons) I made my
Alisha
peace with this issue when I went on the diet and felt 100% better. I was
made to eat meat. It’s that simple for me. How can I be punished for doing
what I was designed to do. I don’t think that the universe punishes animals
for eating what they need to to stay healthy (tigers, wolves, ect) that
would be ridiculous. We are animals as well and O’s were designed to need
meat. We cannot change our blood type or our body’s reaction to the food we
eat. I cannot belive that the Creator (or God, or Buddha, or any deity)
would make us this way and want us to be sick by not eating what we need
to. If you are very concerned with doing the least amount of damage to the
animals we eat, stick to organic, range fed animals. Not only are the
better for the environment, as well as us, the animals live better lives.
They cannot be mistreated like they are in factory farms, because they
would be too sick to sell without all the antibiotics they pump into the
typical mass produced animal. True they are a lot more expensive, but it is
the best way to respect the animals who fuel us.
IMHO of course.

<< well - killing vegetables is quite different from killing animals
Not to the vegetable–LOL. I think we’ve become squeamish as a people
because we’ve been removed from the slaughtering and preparation. When my
mother
was a child, the whole family got involved in the slaughtering and processing of
the animals after the first frost. Now, we go and buy clean, prepackaged
meat in a sanitary grocery store with elevator music. When I hunted years ago.
I used to have to clean and package the game before my then wife would touch
it. Once it was in the freezer, it was OK and she’d cook it.

Hi Yvonne,
I feel the same way as you. It isn’t just that I don’t like to kill animals
to eat, but I don’t really like meat that much anyway. I eat it but it isn’t
the main part of a meal for me. I think I should have been an A or a B,
rather than an O.

I was right there with you when I was a vegetarian. For me, if I
believe in the Eat Right 4 Your Type way, I have to belive that O’s were
indeed designed to eat meat. The work that Dr. D lays out in his books
prove that, at least to me. The big thing that impressed me so much about
his plan is that unlike so many other diets, including vegetarianism, he
doesn’t classify any one food as “evil” or useless for all people. (Except
pork, but you all know why that is the exception) He just does not have a
prejudice towards any food. He bases his recommendations on what he has
found in his research.
I have read all the vegetarian arguments, and at one time I agreed
with them. But now I think that they (people who write the anti-meat books)
have decided that eating meat is wrong and then created arguments to
support their beliefs. Don’t get me wrong, being a ER4YT fan I don’t think
everyone was made to eat meat. My husband is an A and he is a strict
vegetarian. But a lot of the arguments that vegetarian groups make just
don’t hold water when you compare them to Dr D’s findings and the results
that so many have felt on his plan. I was skeptical when I first went on
the diet, but after trying it, I just cannot belive that I was not made to
eat meat.
Dr D is not against vegetarianism, he recommends it to many
people, yet for O’s he tells us we need red meat to function at our best
and avoid illness. We just don’t process plant protein like A’s do. If I
didn’t belive I was made to eat meat, I wouldn’t be on this diet. It is the
corner stone of the O’s diet. Everyone needs to do what they feel is right,
but if I didn’t belive what Dr D says about O’s needing meat, I can’t see
how I would belive anything he says. The entire bases of the diet is that
our immune systems react to the food we eat, proven by Dr D’s findings. If
I belive his findings, I have to belive the evidence that the O blood type
needs to eat meat.
Please don’t think that I am belittling how you feel. I do
understand how hard it is, after all I have been there. I wanted to let you
know how I made peace with eating animals. If this helps you do the same,
great. If not, I hope you can work it out in your own time, and in your own
way.

<< And why do I know so many 0’s that are vegans or occasional meat
(fish) eaters and they are completely healthy as long as they
do sports /recreation.
I’m guessing but I’ll bet they’re younger too. Yes, exercise will prolong
the onset of problems but once they arrive it’s like your body just starts to
fall apart. What brought me to this diet was ill health. Much of it caused by
a low fat, vegetable and grain diet with occasional chicken and fish. I found
that by following Dr. Ds O diet, I became healthy again and stay healthy, as
long as, I stick to the diet. My great sadness is that I know many people
around my age and older who are Os who grow sicker and fatter with every year no
matter how much they exercise or diet. They search for the latest magic
bullet pill from the doctor that just depresses their immune systems faster and
they get sicker more often pumping more antibiotics into their bodies. To me
for Os, the vegan doctrine is a fairy tale and I’ve buried many friends who took
it seriously right to the end.
I am a very spiritual person and, in my opinion, every living thing feels the
pain of death whether it’s a mammal or not. It’s all part of God’s plan and
if I’m part of that plan and am supposed to stay healthy than I have to kill
to live. For me as an O, it is necessary to eat red meat almost daily or I
notice a significant difference in my energy level and health.

OK, then. Organic meat from animals that are grass fed, happy
and healthy probably won’t hurt us.
I just have a problem of that philosophical question.
Otherwise I am following his plan for about a year now.
I have started to eat organic cow meat (beef).
I don’t drink any milk, eat very little fruit, 2kg of fresh
(if possible organic) vegetables a day.
Since I’ve started eating grains (such as rye) once a day
in the morning only, my digestion has improved. I go to the
toilet about three times a day, so my intensine must be clear.
Last time I went to the fitnes and I measured my blood preasure. It
was ideal 75/130 (while last spring it happened it was too low - as
low as 50/95).
I’ve gained some fat. When I don’t eat starch my muscles start to
disapear - Tanita shows that. When eating fruit for my carbs, my fat
goes up. When eating adzuki ot rye about two times a week, my fat
goes down. As it is scientifically proven that fructose is easier
stored as fat than glucose (major ingredient of starch).
There is other thing. For a year small dots are spreading on my feet.
Although I have been folowing the right diet - good shoices of food -
the dots didn’t disapear. My doctor didn’t know what it would be.
So I thought that there could be only two reasons for that. (and
both because of liver detoxification problems, since bad hygiene is
not the cause):
too much animal protein for almost a year
or
the conventional food (full of pesticides, toxins …) I eat.
Could it be the latter?
So as I said I like what Dr.Adamo has discovered. It is hard to say
what would be long term effect of so much beef on our bodies. It
takes 7 years for our bodies to completely rebuilt itself.
And on the other hand about god. I guess 0’s were put down here for
a reason. Everybody knows economy is not the reason to live for
people - it is love and never-stopping learning. Even 0’s must
be amongst others, because we are people with strongest tempers and
therefore the most suitable to lead many others. When we won’t be
needed anymore not so many 0 blood type people will live.
Say. Why is Dr.A. suggesting to take blood type test anually?
December 25th, 2006 at 4:48 am
Just joined the group again and caught up with the messages.
This line is really interesting.
I’m on the diet for three and a half years now, the stricter version,
non-secretor for two years and I’m enjoying all the benefits. I need
meat and I definitely don’t need the avoids.
Some thoughts
Even though we are all Os our organisms may differ. I say I need meet
and you say you don’t need it/ don’t need it all the time.
This may be correct.
It never occurs to tigers or wolves that they are going to be
punished in their next life/lives for eating.
Pork is universally bad, but there is a different reason why, for
each blood type. There are several others, like rhubarb, juniper, etc.
At 41, I’ve been through a long course of religious quest. I don’t
know what may come next, but I’d like to think I’m settled. I believe
in God, the Creator, but also believe in the free will we’ve been
given. It would be unjust to be punished for that.
I love to be here with you. Sorry about disappearing now and again.
