Type O: Protein Blend Powder O is a uniquely formulated protein with an all natural, gluten free, non-GMO, hypo-allergenic rice base with an excellent amino acid profile, fiber, and bromelain for maximum digestibility. Scoop some into your favorite smoothie or Blood Type Diet compliant juice and start your day off right! Peter D’Adamo specifically formulated different protein blends so that you can get the absolute most from your workouts. As with anything you put in your body, these shakes should be optimized to your blood type. My advice: Keep the lauric acid in your soaps and shampoos and the coconut oil in your moisturizers.With all the working out you’ll be inspired to do after this month’s newsletter, it’s important to give your body the energy it needs to replenish! One of the most common practices is to have protein shakes a low calorie but revitalizing option. Since lauryl acyl chains act as a type of emollient/detergent on the cell wall (which is why they put it in soaps) they can disrupt the surface tension of the cell surface, thereby causing cell antigens to aggregate, potentially disrupting many cell-to-cell functions. This phenomenon is called ‘receptor capping.’ In essence, similar charges tend to keep cell surface receptors (like the blood group antigens) uniformly spaced apart from each other. The same basis by which lauric acid gains anti-viral activity is also the mechanism by which it may promote additional sensitivity to dietary lectins. For this reason, it has been used by many individuals with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, though no studies exist that support the use of lauric acid against Epstein Barr virus or Herpes virus. However, virtually all studies have been in-vitro, using concentrations which if taken by mouth would certainly produce massive digestive upset. Lauric acid, a component of coconut oil, has a reputation of possessing anti-viral activity, and had been studied against vesicular stomatitis virus, arenavirus and a few others. Thus, a vegan diet that was high in coconut oil would be expected to significantly elevate serum cholesterol relative to a vegan diet without the coconut oil – a potential problem if you are Type A (already with a genetic proclivity to elevated cholesterol) and are using a low fat strategy as a basis for your diet. Evidence suggests that saturated fat has this effect because it causes a reduction in the rate that liver cells synthesize LDL receptors, which are molecules responsible for removal of cholesterol from the blood. Most of the cholesterol in the blood is not cholesterol that has come from the diet, but rather is cholesterol which has been synthesized by the body. Saturated fat will increase serum cholesterol even if there is no cholesterol in the diet (as in a vegan diet). Blood Type O Diet: focus on animal proteins and avoid dairy. Blood Type B Diet: avoid corn, wheat, buckwheat, lentils, tomatoes, peanuts, sesame seeds and chicken (opting for goat, lamb, mutton, rabbit and venison instead) Blood Type AB Diet: combine the advice of the A and B groups. All of this debate is driving me just a little batty!ĪNSWER: Although palm and coconut oil do not contain cholesterol, they are very high in saturated fat because of this it is probable that they accelerate the cholesterol-raising properties of other foods that do contain cholesterol-a potential problem if you are Type O and are using animal protein as a basis of your diet. Blood Type A Diet: choose a clean, organic vegetarian diet. QUESTION: Is the avoid status of coconut oil for Type O Secretors (and other types for that matter) based on the high saturated fat content or the existence of a harmful lectin remaining in oil? I just wanted to get this cleared up because some reports say coconut is healthy for you, and some say it’s not.
