All of us are individuals in our own right. Every individual’s genetic make-up is unique, but at the same time, there is a common thread between people.
This common thread is the blood group. It is through this blood type that every individual shares something in common with their ancestors of yore, and the same characteristics that make up a particular blood group have been handed down from one generation to the next.
Given this background of genetic heri***e, differences have been seen in people with different blood types. O type people have different characteristics than A type folks and vice versa.
In this article, we will talk about blood group A and the best diet for this group.
A brief history of type A
Type O people are the meat eaters of the human race. One reason for this was that Cro-Magnon man had little or no knowledge and access to fruits and vegetables. Over time, however, humans made their way out in search of food and migrated to Asia and Europe. Livestock and grain cultivation found its place in the food chain, and people could now let go of their nomadic ways and settle down in one place.
Food now took on very distinct identity in the form of carbohydrates. Genetic alteration took place so that the nutrients could be better absorbed and so, blood type A was born. The biological changes that took place then, can be seen in the 21st century too.
eat right 4 your typeDietary habits for blood type A
Blood type A has low levels of hydrochloric acid and alkaline phosphatase but high levels of a digestive enzyme called intestinal disaccharide, which means animal protein is not easily digested, but carbohydrates are. This also indicates that type A best suits a vegetarian diet. Food eaten must be pure, organic, and as fresh as possible.
Meat eating type A’s should eliminate the more toxic foods from their diet. A good diet will ensure that your immune system gets plenty of charge to fight for itself. By nature, Type A people have sensitive immune systems.
Stress is very typical for blood type A. They have higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which makes them react to stressful situations. Symptoms that could occur due to stress are disturbed sleep patterns and brain fog during the day. To ensure the cortisol levels are under control, do the following:
Limit sugar, alcohol and caffeine intake
Don’t skip meals, especially breakfast
Eat smaller, more frequent meals
