What gets into the blood with food?
Substances that enter the blood with the use of various dishes, act on our body differently. That's why some foods are recommended to be excluded from the diet, while others, on the contrary, need a little more for well-being.
Diet for the blood group, according to reviews, improves the condition of hair, nails and teeth. This is especially noticeable in people with the first and second blood group - they suffer less from gum and tooth diseases (they are not so often tormented by toothache, and they are less prone to caries).
If you include in their diet products that contribute to the prevention of gum disease and teeth, then the health of such people with food for the blood group will always be on top.
Blood, products and allergies
According to scientists, the blood has more roles than we imagined. For example, it is blood that actively participates in non-perception of a particular product or, on the contrary, we particularly like this or that product.
Therefore, a diet for a group of blood with the right dishes can remove allergic reactions in those people who suffered from this and did not even always understand the reason.
If you give the person only those foods that the body perceives easily, diet fans on the blood group say, they will be much better absorbed, will not cause rejection in the form of allergies.

Diet by blood group and stresses
According to scientists who study blood, a person with a first blood group will react differently to a stressful situation than a person with a second or, for example, a fourth.
During a stressful situation, the hormone cortisol is actively produced in the blood. He is responsible for the so-called stress level. The more cortisol - the more, then we are excited, depressed, stunned. The more stress we suffered.
It is believed that those people whom nature awarded the second blood group, suffer more from stress, as the level of cortisol in unplanned situations they just go off scale. But if you feed such a person with products that inhibit the production of cortisol, then the nervous system will work much more balanced.
Blood type and favorite dishes
Scientists who devoted their lives to studying blood groups and the influence of products on them write that the latter can work perfectly on the body of one person and be completely unacceptable for another.
If I choose cottage cheese recommended as a regular treat and I have a third blood group, then the cottage cheese will act in the most positive way. I will lose weight, get healthier and I will have a wonderful mood.
But if you put on a curd diet my girlfriend, who has the first blood group and whose meat is recommended in the diet in large quantities, cottage cheese can cause her dislike, even allergy. She will recover, she will always be in a bad mood and benefit from cottage cheese, she will not be any. Unlike me.
Do you understand the difference in the influence of the same products on people with different blood groups? So, scientists conclude, developing a diet for the blood group, it is necessary to take into account the speed and other features of metabolism in the human body.

How to choose the right products?
Each diet for the blood group has its own list of allowed and prohibited foods. To choose the optimal products for yourself, be guided not only by general recommendations, but also your own preferences. This will allow you to eat and lose weight comfortably.
Just study the allowed list of dishes and from it select those foods that you like especially. Include them in the diet to the maximum.

Just spoil them yourself not as often as before.
So you will eat with profit and gradually reach your ideal weight. In addition, during the diet for the blood group you will not have psychological discomfort.
