My Cholesterol report is in and it could not have been better. All I can say is once again the Blood Type Diet worked…beautifully…perfectly…ideally for me as a Type O. Here are the numbers: Total Cholesterol – 222 – down 111 points in six months HDL Cholesterol – 106 – good Cholesterol only dropped 11 […]

Saturday is the big day.  I go in for a follow up cholesterol test.  I’ll admit that I nervous.  I’ve worked hard, cut back on fats and sugars, exercised more, increased my fluid intake, and deprived myself of some favorite foods.  If my LDL is back in normal range, it will all be more than […]

A few weeks ago a friend posted a link to an article about skinny fat.  I read it, and it started me on a quest to understand belly fat.  I was thrown into an unfamiliar world where there is a difference between hard fat and soft fat.  Where belly fat can start to function as […]

The Bladderwrack and Dulse arrived from Amazon. The dulse was from a company called Maine Coast Sea Vegetables.  It is wonderful.  It tastes like seaweed, of course.  So if you are expecting something delectable, don’t kid yourself.  I’m not buying it for the taste.  I’m buying it because seaweed is beneficial and especially good for […]

A box arrived from Amazon today with items from Dr. D’s Cardiovascular Disease book.  Because I live in the country, I order a lot from Amazon, but usually not nutritional items.  This may be a pivotal shopping moment.

Success It has been about five weeks since I did the self test machine at my pharmacy.  On Friday it was time to check again.  I knew I had lost weight, but losing weight isn’t my goal.  I want to lose fat and gain muscle.  I see that as the only non-drug path to lowering […]

There is a product I can buy at my grocery store called Hint.  It is bottled water with a “hint” of fruit flavor.  No sugar, no artificial sweetener, all natural.  I love it – – except it’s a little pricy to drink on a daily basis.  When it goes on sale I stock up. I […]

Do you believe in providence?  I do.  Too many times in my life a random search, an unexpected meeting, a chance conversation, turns out to be life changing.  I found the Blood Type Diet in a random search.  I believe that was the providence of God.  I may well be experiencing another blessing of providence […]

The Eat Right 4 Your Type Cardiovascular Disease book recommends two spices as Super Beneficial for Type O’s – Turmeric and Fenugreek.  I take a Turmeric supplement once a day and often cook with Turmeric itself and with a Curry powder the number one ingredient of which is Turmeric. But Fenugreek I have never used.  […]
