I have read many times that Evening Primrose, Omega 3,6,9 products, and Lecithin all have hormonal activity and will tend to congests the liver ... what do u people think ... any other views ?? I take Lecithin a few times a week ...  |

Quoted from lola
Evening primrose oil has been found to be OK for all types, and is listed as such in the BTD Complete Blood Type Encyclopedia under the "female balancing" protocols. The earlier caution about it has proven unnecessary, so go ahead with it if it works for you!
Just wondering if EPO is now ok for all BTs, why is it still an avoid in TB4 or is it only ok to use for female balancing and for a short period of time?  |

That information is not correct. EPO is listed as an avoid for type O in the Encyclopedia and is not listed for any blood type in the Female Balancing Protocols. |

you do not have to take all that is listed......the first two or three will do, in a protocol...... |

According to TCM, chilled/cold foods, citrus foods, salads/raw vegetables, chocolate, white flour, and I believe white sugar congest the liver.

That is a one-size-fits-all standard line that you frequently hear when you talk to other people about diet. I think we BTD'ers have learned that not everything can be eaten in moderation.  |

I quite agree with MoDon... I ate some pizza (lunch courtesy of work) with cornmeal under the crust of Friday and about an hour after eating, I got really hot and achey... It lasted all night and even into Saturday... Today, I've had a bad backache all day... What a very ugly reminder that everything is not alright! |

Yes, I do say that 'cause I beleive that anything and everything in moderation is perfectly fine ... that's just my humble opinion ... of course always speaking of ur blood type and I'm a B hence; we do have a great variety of food groups to chose from ... NOT everybody eats the same way and/or amounts but my philosophy is a little of everything (within reason) in moderation is the best and most balanced way to live in every respect of life NOT only when it comes to food  |

Me too, this is an excuse that people give themselves in order to eat things that are bad for them, yes everything in moderation is ok, IF, you are talking about natural, healthy foods, since even broccoli in excess cold kill you (and what a smelly death) As far as the liver goes, alot of things, could congest the liver, but mostly things are going to congest the liver if it is weak so focus on liver strengthening foods like root veggies and tuber |

I'm sorry u felt so bad ...  however; I'm NOT out here advocating that people eat bad foods !!  I'll be the first one to say that eating a healthy diet full of fruits, vegetables, wholesome grains and lean protein etc ... whatever ur bloodtype group calls for is a WONDERFUL feeling and yes the cravings tend to subside however; they don't stop completely 'cause we're constantly being bombarded by eat this and eat that and the smells of wonderful breads, sweets ... and most days on the run ... and too busy to stop and have a decent meal ... etc it's NOT easy always eating in a healthy manner and NOT realistic either if we r totally honest with ourselves !! 'cause people don't always have time to slave over the stove ... and/or plan the next meal ... 3 x per day ... we're busy busy busy trying to make ends meet, living our lives in this stressful world we live in ... etc ... furthermore; not all of us feel so horrible if we slip and have a slice of pizza every once in a while ... I don't beleive in deprivation ... 'cause that just NOT a healthy nor realistic way to live one's life ... Just my two cents ... I'm still here though; trying my BEST to improve my eating habits; it's a battle everyday NOT to eat an avoid ... but I'm doing pretty good these days and YES, I'm inspired ... and always need advice, reassurance ...etc ... This forum is an amazing platform even though we don't always necessarily agree on everything; we r individuals afterall and that's the beauty of it  Sorry for the rant  |

Quoted from lkpetrolino

What do u conside as excess when it comes to broccoli?? Eating it three times per day ?? 
Quoted from lkpetrolino
focus on liver strengthening foods like root veggies and tuber
I do eat sweet potatoes, carrots, red beets (2-3x per week)... all types of onions practically on a daily basis ... red; white; yellow; spanish ... and LOTS of garlic !! As far as rutabaga and turnips (very rarely) and celery once in a while ... Any others that u can perhaps suggest for my bloodtype ?? and btw ... tuber ??  Another question; if I may ... Do u suggest eating garlic and onions "raw" once the meal is cooked and ready to serve or cooking it WITH the meal ? TY  |
