Type O's do not tolerate whole wheat products at all, and should eliminate them from the diet. They contain lectins that react with both your blood and your digestive tract and interfere with the proper absorption of beneficial foods. Wheat products are a primary culprit in Type O weight gain. The glutens in wheat germ interfere with Type O metabolic processes. Inefficient or sluggish metabolism causes food to convert to energy more slowly, and so store itself as fat.

Excercise

 

O-p97

animal foods speed up the type O metabolic rate and make it more efficient as they burn meat as fuel. This is because of high stomach acid. The O's muscles will become alkaline from eating meat. O's thrive slightly on acidic muscles

 

Wheat is alkaline for Os.

 

Foods that encourage weight gain; O types
Wheat gluten- interferes with insulin efficience, slows metabolic rate

Corn- interferes with insulin efficience, slows metabolic rate
Kidney Beans- impair calorie utilization
Navy Beans- impair calorie utilization
Lentils- inhibit proper nutrient metabolism
Cabbage- inhibits thyroid hormone
Brussels sprouts- inhibits thyroid hormone
Cauliflower (boo)- inhibits thyroid hormone
Mustard Creens inhibits thyroid production

Foods that encourage weight loss
Kelp contains iodine, increased thyroid hormone production
Seafood- contains iodine, increases thyroid hormone production
*iodized salt (try another way)- contains iodine, increase thyroid hormone procution, however leads to high blood pressure and water retention, oh and boy babies if ttc.
Liver- aids efficient metabolism
Red Meat- (yay for O types) aids efficient metabolism
Kale, spinach, broccoli- aid efficient metabolism
