One's blood type is strongly related to one's diet and health, according to the creators of the blood type diet. If you follow the blood type diet for at least two weeks you may reduce the risk of developing certain diseases, slow down the process of aging, and prevent obesity. Differences in blood types explain why some people can lose weight with a certain diet, while others can`t, according to the blood type diet's authors.



The foods that may help those who belong to blood group B lose weight include green vegetables, lean red meat, liver, low-fat diary foods, eggs, tea, fish, and fruits. On the other side, you should avoid foods like poultry, pork, crab, lobster, tomatoes, or shrimps.

However, seafood is a great source of proteins and oils for those with blood type B.

Cereals and corn should be avoided because they slow down metabolism, retain water, deposit fats, and lead to fatigue. A good alternative to corn is rice. The diet for blood type B must be very balanced and based on dairy foods.

If you have blood type B, you should consume all types of fresh vegetables as often as possible, for up to five times per day. Drink beverages such as green tea, water, and natural juices. You may also drink small amounts of coffee, wine, or beer, in order to enhance your physical performances. Distilled alcoholic beverages are not recommended.

Always check with a specialist before starting a diet program.
