    WHAT MAKES A 'TYPE A' AN INDIVIDUAL?

    What makes Me Me and You You?

    This is the question that is at the heart of the genetic puzzle. It is also central to our exploration of blood types. The key is genetic heritage - the story line of your life. Eventhough you are living in the 21st century you share a co!!on bond "ith your ancestors. The genetic infor!ation that resulted in their particular characteristics has beenpassed on to you.

    #eople "ho are $ blood type have a different set of characteristics than people "ho are Type % - they are susceptible to different diseases they should eat different foods andexercise in a co!pletely different !anner. &o!e believe that personality is influenced by blood type' (r.

    Type A History

    The Type $ e!erges into the 21st century "ith !any !ore co!plex challenges than their ancestors could have i!agined. The key factor in the develop!ent of Type $ can

    be traced to the struggle for survival long ago "hen there "as a rapidly d"indling supply of hunting ga!e stock. aving exhausted the great ga!e herds of $frica hu!anspushed farther out fro! their ancestral ho!e into Europe and $sia. The cultivation of grains and livestock changed everything. or the first ti!e people "ere able to foregothe hand to !outh lifestyle of the hunter/gatherer and establish stable co!!unities. %ver ti!e the adaptations that produced 0lood Type $ "ere based on the need to fully

    utilize nutrients fro! carbohydrate sources. These biological adaptations can still be observed today in Type $)s digestive structure. ,o" levels of hydrochloric acid in thesto!ach and high intestinal disaccharide digestive enzy!e levels per!it the !ore efficient digestion of carbohydrates. $ccording to (r. ()$da!o these are also the veryfactors along "ith lo" levels of intestinal alkaline phosphatase that !ake it difficult for Type $s to digest and !etabolize ani!al protein and fat.

    What Makes Type A Unique

    any neuroche!ical factors in the Type $ genetic disposition favor a structured rhyth!ic har!onious life surrounded by a positive supportive co!!unity. The harriedpace and increased sense of isolation experienced by so !any in today)s society often !ake these needs difficult to achieve. Type $ best exe!plifies the po"erfulinterconnections bet"een !ind and body. This "as vital to the shift a"ay fro! hunting and procure!ent to building and gro"ing. o"ever Type $)s !ore internalizedrelationship to stress "hich served your ancestors "ell can be a challenge for the !odern Type $.

    Blood Type Diet - Type A

    Type As flourish on vegetarian diets . Type As are predisposed to heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. It isparticularly important for sensitive Type As to get their foods in as natural a state as possible: fresh, pure, and organic.When you get on the Type A Diet, you will naturally be thinner. If you are accustomed to eating meat, you'll lose weight

    rather rapidly in the beginning as you eliminate the toxic foods from your diet. And when you follow the Type diet, you cansupercharge your immune system and potentially short-circuit the deelopment of life-threatening diseases.

    When Type As eat meat, they eperience sluggishness . Type As hae low stomach-acid content, thereforethey have a hard time digesting meat. !ince Type As eat ery little animal protein, nuts and seeds supply animportant protein component. Type As also thrive on the vegetable proteins found in beans and legumes ,except those mentioned for the "Aoid" list. These beans can cause a decrease in insulin production, which may cause obesity and

    diabetes. Tofushould be a staple in the Type A #iet.

    #airy foods are also poorly digested by Type As, and can cause metabolic slowdown. Type As can tolerate small amounts of

    fermented dairy products such as yogurt, $efir, nonfat sour cream, and cultured dairy products.
