it was amazing

On this diet a person eats lots of meat and fruit. I like eating the fruit part. She mentions how important taking magnesium is and you almost never hear that. Her focus is on helping hormones so this book is very helpful and I recommend it.

The top 3 fruits she recommends are apples, bananas and blueberries! Isn't that great?

Today my doctor told me not to do this diet any longer! It seemed like a good one to me.

Donne Probably good advice. As someone who is menopausal, I find that reducing meat, especially processed meat, has much more of an effect on balancing hormones. JMHO based on my personal experiences. I prefer the mediterranean diet for maintaining a healthy diet.


´Ê☆~´¡³Ü³Ù³Ü³¾²Ô I am blood type 0 and so followed Eat Right for 4 Your Type: Complete Blood Type Encyclopedia as it perfectly fit my food allergies. I was having endless asthma and so had to have the RAST test and it showed that orange juice was killing me! Peter J. D'Adamo says that no blood type 0 should be having all that citrus. It is bad for us. It turns out that I am allergic to all citrus as lemon gives me migraine. I can tolerate a little lime but not frequently. The RAST test was $800.00 but if I had done his book it fit my allergies perfectly. I thought this was amazing. I am not supposed to eat wheat or oats and he says no blood type 0 should be eating those things.

Blood Type A is the vegetarian type and does well focusing on vegetables. I am very allergic to most all veggies and in fact my Environmental Illness doctor told me not to eat any of them and to eat meat. I sure don't like the Mediterranean Diet! I am allergic to the salicylates in olive oil. I can have a little now and again but must do rotation or I react. My allergist told me to eat pure butter as I am allergic to soybeans so I have to read labels to avoid soy. It is in everything processed. I now have 30 food allergies so it is tough avoiding things like tomatoes. My husband is allergic to tomatoes too so that helps. He really fusses about them and tells everyone that they are poison!
