Blood Type A+ and being Vegan

This may seem a strange concept, but I think that there may be

something to it. I think that some people have body chemistry

that just loves to make lots of cholesterol. A Doctor who wrote

"The Blood Type Diet" indicates that Type A is the original Vegan

and this helps us feel better. When diagnosed with high cholesterol,

I went cold turkey to my version of "Extreme Vegan" without dieting.

I ate NO fats, oils, or refined sugar or flour. The weight fell off.

My motto is: "Thank God that salsa and wine are vegan!"

OTOH- DH is Type O+ and needs to eat meat, etc. His cholesterol

is fine. The Atkins diet works well for him.

It is also interesting to note that the Dali Lama is Type O and really

wants to be vegan but can't cut it.

I am just offering my experience as an option to look into. And yes, it can be

challenging to travel this way but doable. Bottom line, find what works for you

and helps you feel better.

P.S. I use a vegan protein powder for fruit smoothies for breakfast and it is yummy

You say you lost weight but did your cholesterol level drop?

Oh, yes!!! It very much did drop! My doctor and I were very much pleased

about that. I feel great!
