The risk of cancer is not reduced only from the appropriate diet and adequate weight, muscle mass is also important.

Team of experts from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden followed the living habits of 8,677 volunteers, male, aged between 20 and 82 years between 1980 and 2003.  Each volunteer had a regular medical examinations, where experts also measured muscle strength of the individual. They also followed how many suffered from cancer and the proportion of deaths for this severe disease.

The study showed that men who regularly practice with weights, have the highest muscle strength, and are 30 to 40% less likely to fall ill and die of cancer as well. They observed that the protective effect of anaerobic exercise even with the overweight volunteers, which trained regularly with weights.

In the past, experts recommended especially aerobic exercise, such as jogging, cycling … and a healthy lifestyle as a preventive measure against the occurrence of certain diseases. Today, however, experts recommend that menshould be training at least 2-times a week with weights, and not neglecting any muscle group.

Blood group A have accurse somewhere before 2500 to 15,000 years ago (in full Neolithic), around Asia or the Middle East, as a reply to changed ambiental conditions.
In this period it was distinctive incensement of farming and livestock cultivation. This has represented a major challenge for organism, which was only used to proteins, fruit and vegetables digestion. Ample supplies if food have encouraged evolution of the human kind. Since people were no longer obligated to daily look for food, they have developed communities and villages.

Among all existent mutations blood group A have push itself to forward. Blood group A is very good with tolerating wheat and other cereals of agricultural crops. Instead of hunting skills, more and more are necessary; communication skills, planning and communication with the community.

These are all characteristics, which we can still find today with people with blood type A. Blood type A have spread very rapidly in the community, as a result of greater resistance to infections, which was opposite to blood type 0, which was diluted with fever in cholera epidemics (cholera was quite frequent in populated communities.

Blood group A have spread to Western Europe quite soon, where is even today widely present, especially in countries around the Mediterranean Sea.

Characteristics; the first vegetarian, reap what sow, a sensitive digested tract, tolerant immune system, adapts good to the environment and regular diet, to sent mind at rest with breathing exercises, needs agrarian diet to maintain body weight and body energy. For group A is very suitable vegetarian food, this is the inheritance of their more peaceful ancestors and also less eager to fight. If you are already fallowing Mediterranean diet already, then crossing to vegetarian food not going to be traumatic at all.

However, the change is necessary because people with group A needs vegetarian food, with a lots of fruit, food produces naturally, without pesticides and conservatives. Group A is more disposed to the fallowing problems; group A have tendency of heart diseases, diabetes and tumor. These are the most common problems with this group, but, of course not necessary your illness. If you will take into account these guidance for your blood group diet, you will strengthen your immune system and thereby reduce occurrence of very severe disease.

Some other problems: Diabetes type 1 (children), Bronchitis and pneumonia, Parasites, Rheumatoid arthritis.
Food that will help you gain weight: meat (difficulty digestion, moreover this leads to accumulation of fat and toxins in the body), milk and dairy products are inhibiting metabolism and absorption of other nutrients, some types of beans n(very interfere with the digestive juices and slow down the metabolism), wheat (to many -  blocking effectiveness of insulin and thus inhibit the consumption of eaten calories).

Foods which help you lose weight: vegetable oils (make digestion more effectively and prevent water retention in the body), food from soybean (improves digestion, its rapidly digested and metabolized), vegetables (accelerate metabolism and improve peristalsis), and pineapples (increase the usefulness of calories and promotes peristalsis). Reaction to stress: reaction to tress with group A in very intellectual, adrenalin in the body stimulates brain and causing tension, nervousness, persistent and hyperactivity. If the stress lasts for a long time this situation weakness immune system, destroyed antibodies and thus opens the way to several infections, heart diseases and also various type to cancer.

In order to defend stress, group A should use relaxing techniques as yoga and meditation in order to avoid constant tension. Also suitable are Tai či or Hata Yoga. To perform relaxing techniques do not apply any physical effort, but its mainly involved mental exercises.

Highly competitive sports will only exhausted your nervous system as they will increase tension and thus take your immune system into hypersensitivity state.
Recommended sports: Tai-či (30-45 min, 3-5x a week) , Hata-Yoga (30 min, 3-5x a week), Golf (60 min, 2-3x per week) , Swimming (30 min, 3-4x a week), Martial arts (60 min, 2-3x per week),  Fast walking (20-40 min, 2-3x per week) , Dance (30-45 min, 2-3x per week) , Aerobics (30-45 min, 2-3x per week) , Stretching (15 min, 3-5x a day).

NUTRITION

Meat – People with blood group A should remove from daily diet almost all types of meat because this is the only way to reduced circulatory system diseases and cancer. It’s quite understandable, that you will need some time, to change your habit to change to vegetarian food, but it’s important to start.  Start by removing from your diet all the beef and pork meat, and replace it with fish and white chicken meat and turkey made it in the oven or on the grill. Meat industry must forget on you as a customer, since these products contain nitrites, which could cause stomach cancer to the people, which have low lever of stomach acid – people with group A. Neutral: chicken, turkey. Harmful: goose, beef, lamb, deer, liver, rabbit, quail, duck, bacon, baby, deer, pork, ham, veal, rabbit.

FISH – A group A may eat moderate quantities of fish 3-4x a week, but it should avoid any white fish, as a plaice, because it contains lectins, which irritates digestive tract. If you are a woman with blood type A and there have been cancer present in your family, consider to get on your menu snails. Garden snails contain lectins, which modify cancer cells, in particular those of cancer in the chest.

Here are some examples where lectins work for our side: fish prepared in the oven, on the grill on the white source, – only preparing it this way will help you get the most of this food.  Useful: carp, raw salmon, sea trout, sea devil, white fish, cod, river perch, sardines, mackerel, rainbow trout.  Neutral: sturgeon, swordfish, redfish, pike, white tuna, seabass. Harmful: sea bass, octopus, eel, mussel, lepotka – venernica, smoked salmon, sea language sea salmon, plaice, halibut, oysters, hake, crustaceans, pilgrimage scallop (capesante), sardines, cuttlefish (KALAMAR), herring (marinated), which, haddock, frogs.

MILK, DAIRY PRODUCTS AND EGGS

Group A can take in only small quantities, of fermented cheese, but should avoid products with whole milk, and also limit consumptions of eggs ( 1-3 a week). Anyone, who is used to consume milk products daily, should not necessary completely eliminate them, it should be enough to choose from the less-fat products such as yoghurt or skimmed milk, kefir, and some cheeses. Goat milk is a good substitute cow and of course, soy milk and soya cheese.

Group A have quite difficulties digesting dairy products. The reason is as fallow: the immune system produces antibodies to one of the components of whole milk, sugar, D-galaktozamine, which together with the fructose builds up B antigen. Since the immune system react to everything that remains to blood type B, also reacts to whole milk products.

If you are allergic or have respiratory problems, you can be sure that the consumption of dairy products increased production of mucus, which is a good basis for the reproduction of bacteria. Therefore, this is one more reason to restrict dairy products in your diet. Useful: soy milk, soy cheese.  Neutral: goat milk, goat cheese, processed cheese, yogurt, kefir, mozzarella, sheep’s cheese (feta), Ricotta. Harmful: curd, granular curd, Brie, Camembert, Cheddar, Edam, Emmental, Gouda, gruyere, Münster and skimmed milk, Parmesan cheese, buttermilk, Provolone cheese with noble mold, whey, ice cream, cream cheese.

As I mentioned in my few previous posts, here are some fact about four different blood types and food that suits them the best. I try it and it really works. You can feel difference in just few days. If you try hard enough to avoid food that doesn’t suit your blood type, you can also gain some weight with it. More important – you will feel great. Guaranteed.

Diets for blood type 0 – as “old”

Group 0 is the oldest, basic blood group of our ancestors, created 40.000 b.c. years ago in the African continent, from where it has spread to Asia and Europe, to look for new territories. Meat proteins have supplied our ancestor with all needed energy. People owning blood type 0 are in general stronger, brave, have difficulties adapting to changes and are less anticipated to cooperation in team – all as a result of their ancestors.  They have a good tolerance of ketoze situation – a result full of proteins food and fat and low on carbohydrate. As body metabolized proteins and fat into ketone which instead of sugar maintain the level of glucose in the blood and also consume its energy instead of sugar. Ketoze could cause liver problems with some other blood groups. Slender hunters have been form by combination of ketoze, consumption of calories and constant physical activities. These hunters were indispensable link human survival.

Characteristics

-    supportive digestive tract, highly active immune system, rigidity, tendency of a slow thyroid
physical activity is very suitable, maintaining healthy diet with rich proteins (meat fat, fish), fruit and vegetables, bad tolerance with cereals, legumes, pasta, milk and dairy products
More disposed to the fallowing problems:
-    blood clotting problem, inflammation / mainly virus (cold or flu), limb pain, ulcer , allergies (hay), asthma, sinusitis.

Food with which you will gain weight

-    wheat gluten (slow down insulin effect and metabolism)
-    corn ( slow down insulin effect and metabolism)
-    Beans (slows down exploitation of calories)
-    Cabbage (inhibits function of thyroid hormones)
-    Brussels sprouts (inhibits function of thyroid hormones)
-    Cauliflower (inhibits function of thyroid hormones)
-     Mustard seed (inhibits function of thyroid hormones)

The biggest weight gain is caused by gluten and wheat grain, because it creates situation opposite to ketoza and obstructing use of calories from food. Corn effect is similar, but has less influence then wheat. The second important factor sorts of legumes, which lectins accumulate in muscle tissue and make them less prepared for physical activity. People with blood type 0 have slightly more sour muscles, so they can use calories much better.

The third important factor is connected to thyroid. Group 0 have more dispositions to have less thyroid hormone. This is usually caused because of not enough iodine in the body.

Food which helps lose weight

-    Seaweed (containing iodine, increasing production  of thyroid hormones), seafood (contains iodine, increases production of thyroid hormones), Iodine salt (contains iodine, increases production of thyroid hormones), it is better to enter the iodine in the body with algae and sea food, because huge amount of sodium in the body would increase blood pressure and withholding water in the body

-    Liver (source of vitamin B, better metabolism function), red meat (better metabolism function), spinach, broccoli, kale (better metabolism function)
Reaction to stress – group 0 reacts as our ancestors – with explosions.

Therefore these people need constant physical activity. This will not only stimulate body but will also allow weight control, emotional balance and help to achieve satisfaction with our all human being. Persons, which are not very active in physical activity can easily, fall into low metabolism level, which can consequently cause depression, tiredness and insomnia.

Recommended sports

Aerobics (40-60 minutes, 3-4x per week), Swimming (30-45 min, 3-4x per week), Running (30 min, 3-4x a week), Lifting weights (30 min, 3x per week), Climb the stairs (Step) (20 – 30 min 3-4x a week), Martial arts (60 min, 2-3x per week), group sports (60 min, 2-3x per week), Rhythmic gymnastics (30-45 min, 3x per week), Cycling (30 min, 3x per week), Fast walking (30-40 min 5x a week), Dance (40-60 min, 3x per week), Skating (30 min, 3-4x per week).

NUTRITION

Meat – enjoy meat freely as one of the beneficiary food. If you doing some heavy physical work or are involved to physically demanding sports, you need to quite a large amount of proteins in your body. But be quite aware of the portions – our ancestors didn’t have feast with half kilo meat. To them meat was too valuable to be send unwisely. Therefore, do not enjoy more than 180 grams per meal.

Group 0 have a more acid in the stomach; therefore they are very good at digesting and absorbing meat into a body.  But despite all that, we should also pay attention to enjoy enough vegetables and fruit in our meals. Otherwise, we could be facing too much acid in our stomach and duodenum. Usefull meat: beef, buffalo, lamb, mutton, heart, liver, venison, neutral chicken, ducks, partridges, pheasant, rabbit, turkey, quail, harmful pork, goose, ham, salami.

In next post I will write about useful vegetables, fruit, herbs and all other sort of things that are good for blood type 0.

Weight loss and diet by blood groups or a diet that is not a diet. Why is the food at the blood groups as efficient when it comes to weight loss? Eating after you blood group wasn’t originally discovered as another “loosing weight diet”. The majority of people, who consume food according to blood type, is doing it because of the many advantages it offers  them. Its good for their health and also for well being. Moreover, many of these people indicates a weight loss as a good side effect for eating after a blood type. The question is: If there isn’t a diet in question, why is the diet by blood group proved so successful in achieving an optimal weight? Food after the blood group – basic idea  / true weight loss goes deeper.

During the period of o ten years, several researchers have discovered more than a thousand species of completely normal food, which contains important proteins, called lectins.  What is all about? When the lectins in food come into contact with human blood group they are activated and begin to cause reactions in the body. For example, when the man ingested a concentrated milk product, for example, ice cream, may  people with blood group O and A notice some digestive problems.

This reaction may be something other than the simple over-sensitivity to food. On the walls of the stomach and digestive tract are sensitive receptors, which detect the protein in milk lectins and react to them. In early stage you could feel reaction to lectins  like a slight headache.

After eating food that is not appropriate for certain blood group, you could feel tired or without energy. However, these reactions lead to the increasing digestive problems, bad health problems and overall low level of energy and weight gain.  The good news is that when we remove that kind of food from the menu and replace it with food, which is more suitable for our blood group, eventually we obtain a more slender, less rounded and more energetic body.

Why industrially prepared diet products make us grow fatter?

75 % of the people cant stand most of the diet products. Most of the product for weight loss are mainly aimed for decreasing of calories but don’t fully take into account your specific physiological needs. Did you notice, that a lot of people that have loose weight, have gain it back  – sometimes even more as before?

Or, that a lot of people have loose weight in parts around face and neck, but they didn’t loose any weight below the waist? Incorrect and unhealthy weight loss is leading to unhealthy weight proportion in the body.

Proper weight loss and permanent preservation of health and optimal body weight is a good indicator of how your body responds to food and drink, you eat. Your blood type is the most important factor (but not the only one), which indicates if certain  food you eat cause any  inflammation, digestive problems or weight gain.
Here are some examples:
1.For blood group O or A blood group the protein in wheat and corn and its by-products are the main reason for the over-weight.

It is quite amazing, that most popular “low caloric” dietetic tiles and drinks containing wheat and corn, which in blood groups O and A  causing fallowing:
- inflammation of mucous membranes in the digestive tract, and interference in the digested, reflected as inflation;
- Slowing down the metabolism, leading to inefficient utilization of calories;
- Cause disruption in the production of insulin;
- Disrupting  balance of hormone and thereby causing water retention in the body, disturbance in the functioning of thyroid gland and other problems.

The solution is simple: eliminate the key food for your blood group, that is causing weight gain and stress your immune system from your diet. You will not only loss weight this way, but also feel more energy and have better concentration.

Take three little steps to success!
1.First step – Make your own personal nutrition profile
It is true that the blood group is one of the main factors that determine how your body responds to food and drink you eat and the environment in which you live. However, there are also other factors that may significantly affect the balance of your body – in a positive and negative way.

This should be necessarily taken into account if we want our organism to operate optimally.

It is very important current state of your organism  or damage that have been done, as a result of a diet or a way of life in the past, and also the genes that you have inherited.

Full nutritional profile, which can be done from highly qualified consultants (it should be done only once in lifetime)  takes into account all these relevant factors and give us list of food and optional diet recommendation how to exercise and which supplements use. Fallowing these recommendations will bring us wellness to our life.

Next… step two and three.
Soon there will be also article about characteristics for all four blood types.
