A number of years ago it was pouring down in Middlesbrough England so I jumped into Watersons’s the book shop. I got a bit nosey around a book called Eat right For Your type by Peter Dadamo. My Blood group is A Negative, only 7% of the British population are A- or so my donor card says.
Dadamo told me my foods likes and dislikes, he was bang on. he told me why I suffered heartburn, again, bang on. I have looked at food differently ever since and try as best to stick to my food type……It works…It does.
Dadamo tells me as i’m A- I should really be veggie but if I eat meat then stick to Chicken and Turkey only…..Not Red Meat…..Mind I did have a goose at Xmas !

I have been a red meat eater all my life and at 63 I still have very low blood pressure and so far so good on other fronts. I’m confused about your comment:

“It so happens that meats get fried (or roasted, same thing).”

If roasting (even the slow cooking kind of roasting?) is the same as frying then what IS the best way to prepare red meat so it isn’t ‘bad’ for you? How can one enjoy a medium rare steak without some kind of heavy searing or browning on the outside? When you say FRYING do you mean cooking in very hot oil or grease? (That is what I understand the process of ‘frying’ means and ‘roasting’ is cooking in an oven, slow or fast heat… ) Would you please clarify? I think our definitions may be different hence the confusion…
Thanks

These studies came from the same mentality that gave us many conventional maxims. They include the notion that refined grains were the staff of life, that eggs caused heart attacks, that drugs led to the highest form of health, and that medical doctors were the best source of information to maximize one’s quality of life.

Being in this business for over 30 years, I have found that a new basic concept has emerged. Is the food you are eating God-made, not food that is man-made or tampered by man? Man doesn’t change our food to make it healthier. Man changes our food to increase profits. And America is the worse ( when it comes to messing with our food) because profit is what makes America great. It just makes its citizens sick. But then again, there is profit in that too. Eat God-made foods that havent been tampered by man. Be it beef or corn, cows are not suppose to eat corn. They are suppose to eat grass.

I remember reading Joel Salatin who sold his truly free free range chickens to restaurants. The cooks liked them so much better because their hands didn’t burn from chemicals after hours of cutting them up like they did with CAFO chickens.

But we really shouldn’t eat so much meat, especially grass-based meat. It displaces all those tax-subsidized grains that steal our wealth, bankrupt farmers and make the food manufacturers and chemical producers wealthy.
