Recently I have purchased a blood test kit to determine what blood type I am, after using the kit, I have found my blood type to be O positive. I am actually testing this because I am considering the blood type life style. Basically the protocol says that there are certain foods each blood type can and cannot eat, due to the body’s reaction to these foods. I have actually Google searched “food for O positive blood type”, and there is allot of information out there. Here is just some of the information I have found:
