Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 , You and I both know that asking D'Adamo to defend his work is a dead end. D'Adamo deflects all inconsistencies, problems, ill effects, complaints and ER4YT deficiencies in typical fashion- " those who choose to ignore the principles of ER4Yt will suffer the consequences " , any problems are just " detox affects " , food lectin flip-flops metamorphize into " new information has become available " , " we are all individuals " , " positive effects are consistent across blood types " , " clinical observations " , etc. I believe that legitimate dietary blood type benefits probably do exist. But, I am also convinced that they exist outside the realm of ER4YT. The tragedy is that we may never discover the true measure of these benefits as long as the close minded remain in total denial about the many discrepancies that constitute the fundamental basis of ER4YT. Since you (and those like you) choose to surrender by accepting ER4YT without question, then I will continue forward with the search for answers that may ultimately lead to the truth behind a blood type connection. In this abject spirit, perhaps you should then also consider forming a group, your own ER4YT splinter faction: " Welcome to Taliban , dedicated to blowing smoke, disregarding the scientific method and pumping in artificial sunshine about the ER4YT diet. If you do not completely agree with our ideas (or those expressed by D'Adamo in ER4YT therein), you are an infidel. Anyone not 100% with " us " , will automatically be deemed against " us " and therefore treated as the enemy. Any debate concerning the inconsistencies with the ER4YT diet will immediately be dismissed as heresy against ER4YT doctrine and strictly represent a lack of faith on your part. The only evidence that you require in this group is our personal testimonials and D'Adamo's say so " . -Mike > > Dear Mike, > > Perhaps you missed the title of this group.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hi , Just read your post…and incredibly, I am still here (b/c I really figured comrade Mark and the rest of the Gestapo already had me barred by now- lol). Although I do not follow a specific diet, my food choices are based on multiple areas of nutritional research and personal experimentation (a.k.a. " elimination diet " ). Over the years, I discovered that diet is like a pyramid that consists of several hundred building blocks. Each building block represents a critical field or discipline of research that reveal the healthful role that food plays in our bodies. And while some " building blocks " comprise the critical foundation & load bearing areas of the pyramid, others (like blood type) offer minor contributions like shape & form. My current diet has been constructed by meticulously and methodically mapping each " building block " to determine what works best for me. Perhaps this analogy is far too simplistic to accurately describe the complex nature of food or the way I approach my diet. However, the research that predominantly comprises the " cornerstone " of my diet has been derived using the groundbreaking work of Weston A. Price. I would like to carefully point out that I am not trying to persuade anyone (except, of course for blood type A & AB…please reconsider NOW before it's too late!) to discontinue ER4YT. If something has been working well for you, it is probably a good sign and not necessarily a reason to stop. But, there may be additional factors to consider. For example, one of the heavy WAP influences in my diet has been the work of Sally Fallon, especially in the field of raw dairy. Raw dairy should be considered an altogether different food group than pasteurized dairy. Plenty of folks that are lactose intolerant & report problems while eating pasteurized dairy (myself included) have experienced remarkable health benefits from eating raw dairy. Another example has been the influence of Aajonus Vonderplanitz. AV also embodies the work and principles of Weston Price, primarily in the area of eating raw animal foods- including raw meat, raw dairy, and even vegetable juices. Except when I discontinued certain practices like vegetable juicing (for the 2- years that I spent on ER4YT, per D'Adamo's recommendations), I had already been following many of AV's dietary recommendations for a number of years. However, Vonderplanitz really puts many of the healthful aspects of diet and food into focus. Even friends who were strict vegetarians before reading " We Want to Live " or " The Recipe for Living without Disease " , reported amazing success after incorporating AV's ideas. I have been fortunate enough to maintain a consistently lean bodyweight for many years by eating this way. Even though oversimplified, I hope this answers your questions. -Mike lescase@... wrote: > > Mike,,, if you're still there,,, I'm interested in whether you follow a > specific diet or not... and if eating everything/anything in particular works > for you.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 , I would like to know that too. I have leaky gut and have decided to give up grains for now to see if I can regain health. I guess I am doing more of a Paleo diet with BT Avoids. From what I have been reading, some doctors theorized that leaky gut can be cause by grains. Some even say high levels of estrogen which I was own for several years. Whatever the reason, I do think eliminating grains will help. The only question I have is for those that have eliminated grains, how do you stay full? Hunger seems to be a problem for me whenever I do a no grain diet. _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of lescase@... Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 7:18 PM Subject: Re: Negativity? Demoralizing?

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Brown rice is filling and one of the best grains for O's. Have you tried it? I put 2 cups brown rice in non stick frying pan dry and brown it over medium heat until it pops for about minutes. Then add 4 cups of water and bring to a boil, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes. I like it with raisons, raw brown sugar, walnuts and sometimes I add fruit, banana usually. It sure satisfies me. Let me know what you think.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Debra, are you getting enough short & medium chain fatty acids in your diet? You had mentioned offline a while back that you were a Protein Type, so I assume that you are familiar with Wolcott's work. Depending on how fast you " oxidize " (or your degree of parasympathetic dominance), perhaps consider increasing saturated fat intake while eliminating grains altogether. The decision to abandon grains is wise, but keep in mind that Paleo is a lean meat diet which can slow down or impede healing due to the lack of fats. The feeling of fullness and energy that a Protein Type typically experiences after eating grains is a fleeting moment. Depending on your degree of parasympathetic dominance and the glycemic index of the grains eaten, the metabolic nightmare which will ensue throws insulin and leptin levels out of balance. In addition, neurotransmitters (like serotonin) are released in the brain after eating grains that can literally turn Protein Type's into " grain junkies " . To reverse this cycle of addiction and restore such biochemical and neurochemical imbalances (cravings, withdrawals and energy crashes) will usually takes about 48 to 72 hours of being grain free. The saturated fat that I've found (other than the stearic acid in grass fed beef) that is the best and easiest to use is coconut oil. The brand that I prefer is Wilderness Family Naturals: " extra virgin, cold- pressed, centrifuged extracted, 100% organic " coconut oil. Should you decide to try this, remember to go easy at first. Some folks (myself included) report an incredible adrenal rush after first using coconut oil. This usually subsides after the first or second time, but still continues to provide sustained energy and fullness throughout the day. In addition, only consume raw coconut oil…at least for the first few months. Even though coconut oil is probably the most stable and safe cooking oil, heat will alter its ability to bind with and remove toxins from the body. Most people loose large amounts of weight & body fat while on coconut oil. This body fat will naturally contain toxins that can easily be absorbed and removed by a fat like coconut oil ONLY if it remains in its raw state. Finally, coconut oil also aids in healing " leaky gut " syndrome. The lauric acid in coconut oil helps kill harmful intestinal pathogens brought about by things like eating grains, while encouraging friendly intestinal flora to repopulate the gut. For maximum intestinal repair and healing, cultured raw dairy works the best. > > , I would like to know that too.

Whatever the reason, I > do think eliminating grains will help. The only question I have is > for those > that have eliminated grains, how do you stay full? Good question. It is more difficult. I do use a FEW rice crackers with cheese now and then, but basically I incfreased my high-antioxidant vegetables, my good fatty acids and my protein. Nuts and dried fruit make good snacks to fill up. My meals are loaded with veg. Breakfast: Half a baked chicken thigh with a teaspoon of EV olive oil, 4 rice crackers with Havarti cheese, a latte and my usual supplements that include Vit E and fish oil. (Latte and Havarti works for me, but is not O-compliant, and I can not eat much at brekker time. the fatty acids sustain me and slow the lactose and rice absorption. Later I snacked on the rest of the chicken and added a few nuts.) Last night: Pepper-turkey organic sausage (2 of them), mixed mushrooms, mixed color peppers, beans, broccoli, and a small sweet potato. Lunch: Cheeseburger from the deli minus bun, with plenty leaf lettuce, red onion and tomato, and a side of steamed yams. Plus a piece of dark chocolate and one of dried mango for desert. (Lunch is my main meal) I substitute a lot, such as: Instead of pizza use omelette with pizza toppings in it. Instead of a bun or bread, use lettuce, tomato, onion, and/or steamed veg of any kind or salad - aloways with some EV OLIVE Oil. > Hunger seems to be a > problem for me whenever I do a no grain diet. Fill up on (fresh or dried) fruit and nuts if you crave carbs, I do find that even just a few rice crackers, helps. My other filler is very thick soup - I am looking for artichoke flour to u se for thickiening but currently have settled for rice flour or corn starch. The right beans are also very filling as in spicy chili soup..... but I find i ned to consume beans before noon for best results. Also there are nutrients in rice bran that are hard to get elsewherre. I keep telling myself to use and allow rice bran, but it is not that easy to incloude - not great as hamburger or salad dressing for example:-) I eat out mostly, so it is hard to plan meals too well, these are some of my workarounds.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Thanks for your post. Yes, actually I said Paleo but I follow more of the metabolic or McFerran's Hunter Gather diet which recommends the fattier meats especially organs. I do like fatty meats (hamburger, rib eye). I've been thinking though of how I could incorporate more fats into my diet. Avocado? I know that is an avoid but some people do okay with it. It's funny you mentioned coconut oil. There's a big discussion about it on the Ayurveda board and how beneficial it is. I used it in my banana bread I made last week. I am out of it and need to restock. I think I will try to eliminate most grains especially those with yeast in it. But if I am feeling the craving, maybe the brown rice is the answer. After all, the Japanese eat it all the time. I am absolutely a parasympathetic dominant. I think I lean to the left of the scale as well. Lots of fire in my belly and charts. Did you say you've gone off grains completely? I would love to add more fruit to my diet to compensate for grains. Have you been able to eat several servings of fruit a day?

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Village culture teaches everything from experience and passing on facts from one generation to next. When turmeric, honey etc were not at hand for wound dressing, author witnessed use of a cloth dipped in coconut oil, applied as plaster band on wound and it would heal. The same oil was used by uncle to make an ointment for healing burns. The words such as anti-microbial, anti- fungal etc were learnt 20 years later! Re: Re: Negativity? Demoralizing?

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Fats: beef, butter/ghee, olive oil, avocadoes(beneficial for non secretors), nuts. ________________________________ From: Debra <mermaideeee@...> Sent: Saturday, January 17, 2009 6:06:01 AM Subject: RE: Re: Negativity? Demoralizing? Thanks for your post. Yes, actually I said Paleo but I follow more of the metabolic or McFerran's Hunter Gather diet which recommends the fattier meats especially organs. I do like fatty meats (hamburger, rib eye). I've been thinking though of how I could incorporate more fats into my diet. Avocado? I know that is an avoid but some people do okay with it. It's funny you mentioned coconut oil. There's a big discussion about it on the Ayurveda board and how beneficial it is. I used it in my banana bread I made last week. I am out of it and need to restock. I think I will try to eliminate most grains especially those with yeast in it. But if I am feeling the craving, maybe the brown rice is the answer. After all, the Japanese eat it all the time. I am absolutely a parasympathetic dominant. I think I lean to the left of the scale as well. Lots of fire in my belly and charts. Did you say you've gone off grains completely? I would love to add more fruit to my diet to compensate for grains. Have you been able to eat several servings of fruit a day?

Demoralizing? * Debra, are you getting enough short & medium chain fatty acids in your diet? You had mentioned offline a while back that you were a Protein Type, so I assume that you are familiar with Wolcott's work. Depending on how fast you " oxidize " (or your degree of parasympathetic dominance), perhaps consider increasing saturated fat intake while eliminating grains altogether. The decision to abandon grains is wise, but keep in mind that Paleo is a lean meat diet which can slow down or impede healing due to the lack of fats. The feeling of fullness and energy that a Protein Type typically experiences after eating grains is a fleeting moment. Depending on your degree of parasympathetic dominance and the glycemic index of the grains eaten, the metabolic nightmare which will ensue throws insulin and leptin levels out of balance.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Sorry Debra, it appears that I am not receiving every message via email (found this one by accident while scanning the message archives). I regularly incorporate low glycemic raw fruits (including avocados, tomatoes, berries & unripe bananas). Even though tomatoes are an avoid, they do not seem to bother me and actually help remove acidic wastes from the blood. Due to the fact that I regularly eat raw red meat, I do not eat most other fruits very often because they interfere with healing and create various other metabolic disturbances. -Mike > From: Debra <mermaideeee@...> > > Sent: Saturday, January 17, 2009 6:06:01 AM > Subject: RE: Re: Negativity?
