Geetings from Russell's Remnant:                                                                                  www.oocities.org/dkone_us

            Dr. Russell Whitesell had a rather interesting connection with Goethe in a previous life.  Goethe wrote about blood being a “mysterious essence.”  Russell spoke often about the blood.  He stated that life and consciousness are in the blood.  Lose enough blood and you lose your consciousness - lose more blood and lose your life.  Taoists tell their disciples that they should do Chi exercises that cleanse the bones and the marrow which is found in the bones.  It surely appears that one should spend some time studying the blood.  The following book might be of interest to those who care to study their own blood type.  One man’s food is another man’s poison.  This is ever so true according to Dr. D’Adamo.

Eat Right 4 Your Type by Dr. Peter D’Adamo

            I believe that no two people are alike.  I do not think it is logical that people should eat the same foods.

            Your blood type is the key that unlocks the door to the mysteries of health, disease, longevity, vitality and emotional strength.  It determines your susceptibility to illness.  One man’s food is another man’s poison.

            You can pinpoint the foods that make you sick, contribute to weight gain, and lead to chronic disease.

            Blood is magical, blood is mystical, blood is alchemical.

            Change in climate and available food produced new blood types, and each blood type contains the genetic message of our ancestors’ diet and behaviors.

            Type “O” is for Old.

            Type “A” is for Agrarian.

            Type “B” is for Balance.

            Type “AB” is for Modern.

            No evidence for the occurrence of Type AB extends beyond 900 to 1,000 years ago when a large western migration of eastern people took place.

            Your blood type is older than your race and more fundamental than your ethnicity.  Some anthropologists believe that classifying humans into races invites oversimplification.  Blood type is a far more important determinant of individuality and similarity than is race.

            Your blood type is the key to your body’s entire immune system.

            When you eat a food containing protein lectins that are incompatible with your blood type antigen, the lectins target an organ or bodily system and begin to agglutinate blood cells in that area.  Once intact lectin protein settles in your body, it literally has a magnetic effect on the cells in that region.  It clumps the cells together and they are targeted for destruction.  The key is to avoid the lectins that agglutinate your particular cells – determined by blood type.

            If you regularly consume foods that are high in lectins or difficult to digest, your Indican Scale (The scientific barometer used to measure the presence of lectins in your system is a simple urine test called the Indican Scale) will be high – meaning you have a high carcinogenity of substances in your body.  The Indican Scale shows that a carcinogen entering your system is magnified to ninety times the effect of someone for whom it is not toxic.

            The average person measures 2.5 on the scale – more than enough toxicity to indicate a problem.  The good news is that after two weeks on faithfully following the Blood Type Diet, that person’s Indican Scale will drop to 1 or even 0.  (0-2 is good, 2.5 is problems, and 3-4 is danger.

            The Blood Type Diet divides food into three categories:

                        Highly Beneficial is food that acts like a Medicine.

                        Neutral is a food that acts like a Food.

                        Avoid is a food that acts like a Poison.

When possible, show preference for the highly beneficial foods over the neutral foods, but feel free to enjoy the neutral foods that suit you.

            The Blood Type Diet was not designed for weight loss, but weight loss is one of the natural side effect of the body’s restoration.

            Type ABs do not lose weight on high protein diets.  Actually, the greatest problem most of my patients encounter is that they lose too much weight very quickly and have to make adjustments in their diets to slow down the rate of weight loss.

            As your body makes the dramatic shift of eliminating foods that are poorly digested or toxic, the first thing it does is try to flush out the toxins that are already there.  Those toxins are deposited mainly in the fat tissue, so the process of eliminating toxins also means eliminating fat.

            A good approach is to eliminate all the foods on your AVOID list and reduce or eliminate those NEUTRAL foods that are prone to cause weight gain for your blood type.

            The Blood Type Plan also recommends supplements – for example, the milk thistle plant (Silybum marianum) and the spice tumeric (Curcuma longa) both have an antioxidant capability hundreds of times stronger than vitamin E.

            Take Acidolophilus to restore the proper balance of bacteria in the digestive tract if taking an antibiotic.  Also take Bromelain to ensure that your antibiotic spreads rapidly and penetrates tissue more rapidly.  Avoid Floxin and Cipro antibiotics.

            Normal blood pressure is 120/80.  High blood pressure is 140/90 for under age forty and 160/95 over age forty.

            Quercetin helps prevent many complications stemming from diabetes.  A high-potency vitamin B complex can help counter insulin intolerance.
