My response to your question about the changing acidity levels in a Type O person would be, yes possibly. In a normal statisical curve it may happen in a minority of Type O's who produce low amounts of stomach acid-I would say very few individuals. However, keep in mind that acidity and alkalinity levels are relative. For an analogy, although I am stronger than my cat, I'm not as strong as an elephant. So it is with acids and bases. The majority of foods on the ER4YT diet are clearly soothing for Type O digestive systems but at the same time some acidic foods remain. The diet is designed around lessening the severity of acidic foods consumed by Type O's and I think it acomplishes it nicely. Acidic foods are still eaten on the diet. Many conventional doctors and M.D.'s back up this philosophy and it is supported in medical books and literature.Have you heard of Dr. Lendon Smith?
