Your Blood Type does Define What You Eat

An Overview of Blood Types

Extensive scientific research demonstrates that blood type is a genetic fingerprint that significanty influences important health factors, such as disease susceptibility, immune system competency, enzyme activity, hormonal response, platelet aggregation, and food interactions. Blood type is expressed in every tissue in your body that interacts with the "outside" world: in your mouth, your stomach and your intestinal tract. It is your first line of immune system defense.

Each blood type developed as a survival strategy in response to changes in diet, living conditions and infections. Through adapting to new environments, each blood type acquired particular strengths, limitations and susceptibilities. Understanding the unique characteristics of each blood type allows us to make informed dietary choices to maximize our genetic strengths and to minimize our genetic weaknesses.

Each blood type benefits from specific foods and herbs based upon the unique physiological characteristics of each blood type.

Blood Type A developed as human populations began to live as cultivators, which dramatically changed our eating habits. Previously foreign or unavailable food became the mainstay of the original Type A's diet.

Blood Type B developed among the mountainous nomadic populations in the Eastern Steppe region in Asia. Of all the populations in the Eastern Steppe region in Asia. Of all the blood types, Type B has the greatest variety of food choices.

Type AB is the newest blood type and represents a merging of blood Types A and B. Clinical experience shows that like Bs, ABs benefit from some animal protein. However, because of their A-like digestion, they need smaller, less frequent portions.

Blood Type O is the oldest blood type, originating in the hunting-gathering stage of human evolution. Type Os thrive on a "hunter-gatherer" diet, namely, animal protein and vegetables. Type Os also do very well with eggs as a protein source and benefit from Omega 3 essential fatty acids.

 Going Beyond The Standard Of Care  —

 
Testimonials:

I would like to take this opportunity to recommend the doctors and staff at Your Next Step, and in particular, Dr. Eric Ricefield. My son, Philip had severely flat feet. His condition was so bad that his toes curled under and his nails were not growing in properly. This was his body's attempt to correct the problem. I brought him to see Dr. Ricefield initially to treat a problem with his toes.

The doctor explained Philip's condition to us, and told us that he felt he could correct the condition. I myself have flat feet and was pleased to find out that if the condition is diagnosed while a child is still growing, that a procedure can correct it.

Today, a year after the procedure I still marvel at the beautiful arches in my son's feet. I remind him of how lucky he is and how much better his life will be thanks to the corrective procedure. I am so pleased to recommend Dr. Ricefield to any prospective patient. He and his staff have proven to be both knowledgeable and caring. We feel very fortunate to have our son have the benefit of that experience.

Testimonials:

I'm writing to let you know that I've started running. It doesn't seem that long ago that I could barely walk. I'm so grateful that I heard you on the radio that December night. If it weren't for you and your abilities, I know I would not be enjoying being on my feet.

I still have some discomfort from time to time, but the fact that I can run is awesome.

Every time I go to the track, I am so thankful to you.

Take care and I hope not to see you soon.
