They call it the blood type diet, or for that matter you could follow the astrology diet. Both of these base their assessments on the idea that if this abstract element is this way, then you should eat this particular diet and it will better improve your health and help you to better lose or even maintain weight. Frankly speaking, I’m a Pisces and every diet recommendation I’ve seen says I should eat more fats and more meats. I should eat more fats to get my cholesterol up. But the truth is, I shouldn’t eat more meats, because my body has never responded well to any kind of meat in any amounts. It reacts horribly to some enzyme found in even white meats actually. So this isn’t a good thing at all. This being said, as off the wall as that seems anyway, the blood type diet is the same way. Yes, they can test your blood type, and you can send it in for your personalized assessment. But basically speaking, a registered dietician at the Mayo Clinic, Katherine Zeratsky has basically said that frankly speaking you are often sacrificing good nutritional habits and many of the foods your body needs when you follow the diets they set down. It turns into a fad diet you could find somewhere else, and therefore you really can’t benefit from it.
