    Blood work to determine diet??

    I ask alot of questions, lol.. sorry.

    Anyone ever get blood work to determine what foods you shouldn't eat? I've never heard of this.

    My sister in law told me that on her next trip to Brazil she is going to this place where they will examine her blood, and then after the results they will tell her what foods she should avoid that make her gain weight. Since everyone is different, not everyone can do the same diet.

    I would do this but I already know what works for me. I'd like to do it to see what they would tell me.

    All I know is that for me, avoiding fried foods, fast foods, & sweets is good enough & i'm good. And eating a little bit of everything, as long as it's clean and in small portions & drink lots of water. I do have to have more fiber in my diet though.

    The blood type diet...Eat Right 4 Your Type. Theory is that each blood group has a specific set of antigens that react to the lectins in certain foods...Type O has the most of these antigens, type AB has the least.

    You can get a blood type test at the doctor and buy the book on amazon.

    I think it's a pretty sound theory, for what it's worth.

    I pretty much follow the Eat Right 4 Your Type (I'm type A) and I feel great.

    For my type it's a lot of soy, green vegetables, fish, whole grains, fruits, etc.
