Additional Information on the Blood Type Diet
It is difficult to begin a diet based on blood type if you are not aware of your own type. In Europe, blood type is something almost everyone knows, but here in the United States, unless we need a transfusion, we can go our entire lives without knowing what blood type we are. Here are several simple ways to find out your type:
Donate blood. Not only are you providing a critical service to the community, but this is a free and simple way to find out what blood type you are. To find your local donation center, visit the American Red Cross website’s Give Blood page (www.redcrossblood.org).
Purchase a blood typing test kit at D’Adamo Personalized Nutrition (www.4yourtype.com), under Books and Tests. The kit is inexpensive and simple to do in your own home.
Next time you visit your doctor for a blood workup, ask him or her to add blood type to the blood-draw protocol.
In this book we also address Secretor Status, tagging each recipe to indicate if it is appropriate for both Secretors and Non-Secretors. If you do not know your Secretor Status, you can purchase a Secretor Status Test Kit from D’Adamo Personalized Nutrition (www.4yourtype.com).
