Galna dieter: Ät efter din blodgrupp

Om du inte fått nog av kvasivetenskap, så kan du alltid förkovra dig i den här parallellakademiska smörjan som bygger på halvtaskiga antaganden och fina ord:

Ät efter din blodgrupp!

Se här, jag är blodgrupp A (som nästan hälften av Europas befolkning också är), så då ska jag äta följande: Se nedan...

Vilken lista! Det verkar helt absurdt, hur 17 har de vetenskapligt kommit fram till alla dessa födoämnen när Svenska myndigheter, livsmedelsverket, knappt kan skrapa ihop tillräckligt med hard-end points för en någorlunda sådar schysst vetenskapligt underbyggda kostråd...

...En del människor vill bara låta sig luras, helt enkelt.

Här är kritiken som sakligt förklarar varför detta är en ihophittad smörja:

A brief history of type A
Type O people are the meat eaters of the human race. One reason for this was that Cro-Magnon man had little or no knowledge and access to fruits and vegetables. Over time, however, humans made their way out in search of food and migrated to Asia and Europe. Livestock and grain cultivation found its place in the food chain, and people could now let go of their nomadic ways and settle down in one place.
Food now took on very distinct identity in the form of carbohydrates. Genetic alteration took place so that the nutrients could be better absorbed and so, blood type A was born. The biological changes that took place then can be seen in the 21st century too.
Dietary habits for blood type A
Blood type A has low levels of hydrochloric acid and alkaline phosphatase but high levels of a digestive enzyme called intestinal disaccharide, which means animal protein is not easily digested, but carbohydrates are. This also indicates that type A best suits a vegetarian diet. Food eaten must be pure, organic, and as fresh as possible.
Meat eating type A’s should eliminate the more toxic foods from their diet. A good diet will ensure that your immune system gets plenty of charge to fight for itself. By nature, Type A people have sensitive immune systems.
Stress is very typical for blood type A. They have higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which makes them react to stressful situations. Symptoms that could occur due to stress are disturbed sleep patterns and brain fog during the day. To ensure the cortisol levels are under control, do the following:
