Lindenlea said:Oh Laura - You have taken me back so many years with the date paste although ours (in UK) was the date block as has been mentioned here, the whole dates only came in beautiful oval boxes at Christmas from The Middle East.
I took no convincing that this recipe will taste wonderful, and I shall definately try it out, which will be my undoing as I've slowly been able to curtail my sweet tooth via the detox diet.
You are such a natural at presenting information, my first thought was you leave the commercial 'cooks/chefs' in your wake.
I need to be able to get all your videos on to DVD's for my sister in the UK who does not have a computer, do you propose to do such DVD's in the near future?
Laura said:mkrnhr said:I've just watched the videos. Very clear and well explained. I'm a little confused though about meat. My blood group is A+ and I thought it was harmful for us.
As can eat meat: chicken, turkey, fish.
Keep in mind that the three people in the video are all type Os! But, as we go along, I'll make distinctions.

Hmm, do you mean A's can't have it? I'm an A and looking at http://www.curezone.com/ER4YT/grains.asp it has a "B" for beneficial, which would mean that it's good for us.

thank you laura for the video and this is great. I should say video are becoming more and more sophisticated. picture in picture and highlighting the topic from the table etc. conveys a lot of information and great way of presenting the information.Gertrudes said:Thanks for the videos Laura, they're brilliant! They very nicely summarized the importance of a good diet.
I also had an "Aha moment" when you described the dizziness you felt when entering stores for electronic devices. I can very well relate to that but had not given it much thought. I know I can't stand fluorescent lights because they make me very dizzy and sleepy, but I hadn't pondered upon the brain fog I have when entering other spaces with EMfs.

Sorry, I have the other D'Adamo book called "the Genotype Diet" where he breaks it down even further into six "genotypes" instead of blood types. For my Warrior genotype, buckwheat is listed as "toxins to limit or avoid" and has the little black diamond next to it that means after 3-6 months on the diet, you can have limited quantities of it.
Ailen said:Personally, I don't really trust D'Adamo's lists. There are a lot of contradictions in his books. How can he say that something is to be avoided and then come up with a second book saying it's beneficial? And he doesn't really explain the science behind it. So, I prefer to take it as a general guideline but test foods myself. Every person is different, and his lists seem a bit too simplistic. That's why I have found the elimination diet and the ultrasimple diet to be the best ones so far. You can really test which foods are good for you that way.
In your case, I'd try the date bread and see what it did. If buckwheat ends up being bad for you (which I doubt - I don't know anybody who doesn't do well on it), at least you can say you've had a wonderful date bread once. Tongue

With reference to the highlights above, I had similar advice from Psyche and find that it is the best way to go - and, you end up with more foods that you can eat too! :D Use D'Adamo's lists as a start point, building on the Ultrasimple diet, and individually test each food from there.
