What if our food intolerances were due to our blood type? An idea launched by doctor Peter J. D’Adamo, and taken up by bio-nutritionist Marion Kaplan, who wishes to give advice to better combat these intolerances.
Know your food intolerances
According to bio-nutritionist Marion Kaplan, knowing your food intolerances could allow us to live better. Each individual would have a specific diet that should be followed scrupulously. To know if you are intolerant and if so to what, you must take a test. For that you need removing gluten and dairy products from your diet during two months.
If you eat gluten and cow’s milk products, your intestinal flora is in ” inflammatory status », To use the words of Marion Kaplan. Once your intestinal flora is in good condition, you will be able to know precisely the foods you tolerate and those which are toxic to your body, secondary intolerances to certain fruits or certain seeds for example.
Know your intolerances through a simple blood test
But how do we know if we are intolerant to such and such a product? According to the bio-nutritionist, we can be bloated, have a stomach ache, suffer from migraines … But if we want to push this research even further, we can do a blood test that will give us the details of foods that may be toxic. But this blood test is expensive, it costs around € 200 and is not reimbursed by Social Security or mutual funds.
Finally, to avoid any intestinal disorder, Marion Kaplan recommends steaming all her foods. This cooking preserves the vitamins of food and also allows better digestion. For gentle steam cooking, Marion Kaplan even went so far as to develop a steamer, the cooking temperature of which does not exceed 100 ° C, the vitalizer. Will you follow his advice?
