I'm type o and didn't eat meat for 6 years. I lost tons of weight initially, to the point where people thought I had an eating disorder because I was so skinny and I had dark circles under my eyes. I also lost a lot of hair, it thinned out so badly and was dry and brittle, and I got weird dry patches on my skin and I felt tired all the time. I then switched back to eating meat and immediately felt better, more energy, more focused and my hair grew lush and shiny again! I simply cannot go back to a meatless diet. We need to consider the long term effects and everyone needs to do what is right for them, there is no one-size-fits-all solution.

I'm a type O and I used to have some minor issues with my health (skin, allergies and digestion) but I also felt sad about animals, so I decided to follow a strict vegetarian/lacto-ovo diet for about 3 years. That stupid idea was enough to destroy my entire system! I started having problems sleeping, my gluten intolerance increased exponencially, I started having a very serious IBS problem, my colon was destroyed and I felt anxious all the time. After visiting different doctors, hundreds of hours of research and lots of trial-error experiments I realized the worst decision I could ever made in my entire little life was taking meat out of my diet. Now all I eat is meat of every kind (cow, veal, lamb, chicken, pork, etc) and a lot of soup made from bones (cow, chicken feet, ox tail, etc) because the colagen from bones repairs your colon. Being a type O, I feel better than ever now I'm a carnivore! 👍👍👍

Eating the blood type diet works and whoever say it doesn't is crazy. I ate my blood type diet up until my 30s and I was super fit and ripped. My mother had me mostly on the peskatarian diet almost 90% blood type diet and I looked great. I stopped eating blood type in my late 30s and put on 80 lbs and got health problems. I went back to blood diet eating and lost alot of weight and put muscle back on and is looking so much better. My cravings of sugar went away and I feel wonderful. My blood work is excellent.

The real book "eating right for your blood type" has been around for a very long time. Me personally along with a few friends had used this book and saw amazing results. It truly does work. My problem with this video is that they chose to do studies on a vegan only diet. Pretty much everyone who goes vegan are guaranteed to lose weight no matter what. But for some people, going vegan isn't sustainable or suitable for them. Vagan diets can also be very dangerous for people who have nut allergies. I feel like more and more the media and pretty much everywhere is pushing plant base non stop.

Guys, i follow the blood group diet according to the real book. Not what dr. Bernard thinks the book says. And following the real book 'eat right for your blood type' greatly helped me. Don't let this video mislead you.

have you all noticed that when starting to read up on your blood type related suggested foods and ones to avoid...you realize that even without knowing any of this you were already more or less following the suggested diet naturally by liking or not liking certain things?... so in my humble opinion Blood type dieting is real... and it certainly isn't new .... the fact that "modern science " is finally catching up with it
is great :)

I’m type O and ate veg and fruits ONLY for almost two months. It felt great!! Lost a ton of weight, until I didn’t feel well and couldn’t stop losing weight. Added meat back in and almost immediately felt better. Cleansing is great, but the blood type diet works perfectly for me. Do what feels right for you!

Started eating food according to my blood type and I the best I've felt in the last 8 years. Type O. I've eliminated oranges, avocado, kidney beans, coconut, and many other foods. Increased mango, black beans, dark green veggies, and exercise 2 days a week. I've lost 16 pounds in 2 months.

I can totally see why Doctors and Health Department don't want us to believe in it, coz it works and that cuts down on their source of income.

It's one thing I never understood why hospitals doesn't serve the most healthiest food you ever ate

As a person with O- blood I’ve always craved fish with a lot of protein but I stay away from to much carbohydrates, and sugar. And I enjoy most anything that grows from the ground. I’m 58 and my first check up was a year ago with 0 health problems. As a result I am lean and with a little time in the gym have a decent muscle pack.

I’m type O, was vegan for 3 years. Started struggling 2 1/2 years into that diet. It took me awhile to figure it out, started adding meat and the recommended foods and took out what the book said and started feeling much better!! Still healing from the vegan diet, onward and upward!

I'm type 0 positive and was on the Vegan diet for two years I lost weight but gained fat which he doesn't mention plus I had no energy. Now I am a Carnivore and feel much better so maybe blood types do matter what you eat.

I am bloid type A+ and went vegan for 3 yrs in my early 50's to lose weight, to reduce inflammation in my body (mainly osteo arthritis), correct menopause induced gut issues including GERD. I did NOT lose any weight in fact put on a little extra weight. I did WFPB everything, did NOT eat fake meat or processed vegan food, made my own nut milks, soaked all my legumes etc to reduce lectins. Bought organic everything. It was VERY expensive, VERY time consuming but felt ok. 2yrs in i was feeling like i was lacking in nutrients, fatigued etc. I am very in tune with my body, was healthy metabolically with an already generally high genetic cholesterol/LDL levels. I am on no meds, and overall super healthy just could not lose weight (needed to lose 18kg in the end). Initially I felt well but just over 2 yrs in I felt fatigued and like I was lacking in something. My gut was leaky (partly diagnosed due to too much fiber) and my GERD returned even worse. I stuck it out for nearly another year, and I'm sure it damaged me more in the end. I introduced an egg or 2 a week for a month (was craving them) and then some salmon once a week. Then for the next 3 yrs played around with loose keto, ketovore etc and it helped all of my issues made worse by WFPB vegan. I have found a happy medium eating a red meat meal on the days I workout and salmon, chicken etc on non workout days. My biggest progress was coming off all sugars and bad seed oils and starting 16:8 IF 2yrs ago with 2MAD. I still struggled with weight loss (only dropped 6kg over yrs) but am only now just starting to see weight shift after finding Dr Mindy Pelz on YT a few months ago 👍 I have started weekly variation fasting and concentrate on the right amount of protein for a 58 yo post menopausal woman, lower carbs (mainly some vege/fruit), good fats and some fermented foods daily. Everday i have ACV b4 my main meal, take collagen peptides and drink bone both a few times a week which has all rid me of GERD and heal my gut. Eggs I have at least 2-4 a day and my cholesterol is slowly moving down. So vegan is wrong for me....blood type A.
I also had COVID mid 2022 and did not suffer with any respiratory issues (not vaccd either) but had myself on a COVID supplements protocol during the bulk of the pandemic, sunlight practices, cold dips and sauna. Which I still practice.
So this theory may be too generalised re blood types in the end? Were there other varying health factors in the study participants?🤔 should we go deeper and ask does A+ vs A- change things too?

Its not about losing weight, every diet will lose weight. Its about markers in your body causing inflammation because of the food you eat. I am type A and I do well on a veg diet with fish. When i did the carnivore, of course I lost weight also, however my blood pressure was higher and I tended to get sick more with low energy.

No matter what your blood type you're better off not eating the SAD diet (processed and chemicalized foods).

I'm "O" blood type. Prior to eating for my type, I was taking prescriptions for a variety of different ailments. 15 months later, I've been getting excellent results on my checkups from eating Grass-fed red meat from the Amish and dark leafy vegetables. Stomach acid in blood type "O" is a real thing. I do take a doctor's advice into consideration, but what I know to be true... It's not in the best interest of their career for everyone to be in their healthiest condition ever. If we don't get sick, their lifestyle begins to take a turn. There are a variety of ways to lose weight. Weight loss doesn't always equal optimal health. Doctors seldom recommend nutritional regiments to cure/improve my ailments (even when I specifically ask). Their "go-to" rather are prescriptions to fix everything. They only recommend what foods aren't compatible with your meds. Prior to my dad's death...he was on 22 different prescriptions per day. None of his doctors recommended that he eliminate inferior pork from his diet when he was still healthy enough for it to matter. Pig ears, hog mogs, chitterlings etc. It says a lot, that eating for my type has eliminated my dependency on meds. Unless I end up on a surgery table, because my airplane fell from the sky, I'm going to continue consulting with my body for nutrition and diagnosing its long-term effects. Dr. Peter D' Adamo has far less to gain from book sales, than he would from office visits and prescriptions upwards of $800 per pill. I trust that🙂.

I'm convinced it comes down to blood type with why one person succeeds on a lifestyle diet, while others feel like crap. I'm not 100% compliant with the AB blood type diet, but there are many things I don't eat for my blood type. I gave up chicken over a year ago and feel great, I also limit my corn products too.

All I can say is that It works for me! Now, some things that are “supposed” to be beneficial for my blood type, doesn’t make me feel good, at all. I just chose to stay away from those foods and stick to those that “acts” like a medicine for me. My food journal has helped me TREMENDOUSLY in learning more about what works and what doesn’t for me!!
My advice is do what works best for you because in this instance, it’s not a one size fits all kind of thing. We’re all different 😉

As odd as blood type seems, I have to say I've seen dramatic health benefits for my clients, not even following it perfectly. I think science needs to explore this more.
