Should your blood type dictate what you eat?
The theory goes like this: Your blood type can make you more or less susceptible to various health outcomes, like risk for certain diseases, fertility, reaction to stress, and the composition of bacteria in your gut. Therefore you should eat a diet that helps minimize those specific risks that come with your blood type. (There’s also different exercise prescriptions for people of various blood types.)
The Blood Type Diet was developed by Paul D’Adamo, a naturopathic physician, and first published in his 1996 book, Eat Right For Your Type.

Once you decide you want to lose weight, it can be tricky to know what to do next. (Should you try keto or the DASH diet, for instance?) But no matter what kind of eating plan you follow, there’s one rule of weight loss that’s clutch: You have to create a calorie deficit, or when you expend more calories than you take in. Without it, you’re unlikely to lose weight.
It sounds super simple, right? Well, there’s some detective work involved at first to figure out how many calories your body needs, followed by a little math to calculate what you need to take in to be in a deficit. And then, of course, you’ve got to figure out what that actually looks like in the food department to help you reach your goals.

I Ate a Handful of Walnuts Before Dinner For 2 Weeks, and I Ended Up Losing Weight 103 Shares
When people say they want to lose weight, oftentimes they immediately start thinking about juice cleanses and restrictive diets. As a registered dietitian for almost 20 years, I have seen it all when it comes to weight-loss strategies (and gimmicks). I know how quickly cutting foods out of your diet or swapping a meal with a nasty beverage can backfire.
Instead of taking away beloved foods when trying to manage weight, I m a big proponent of finding foods to
add to your diet for positive results. And one food that has proven to be a weight-management superstar is the humble walnut. Yes, that little nut you find sprinkled on top of your salad or used as decor on a cheese board is actually a powerhouse when it comes to nutrition. Walnuts are chock-full of ALA omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and plant-based proteins.
