as far as i'm aware of, my blood type is AB, rhesus positive. some of the adjectives describing individuals with this blood type are mysterious, inexplicable, complex, unique, strange, etc. those words are just generalised impressions by some people, OK. don't take them so seriously.

Type AB blood is
rare – it’s found in less than five percent of the population. And it is the newest of the blood types. Until ten or twelve centuries ago, there was no Type AB blood type. Type AB resulted from the intermingling of Type A with Type B. Type AB has a unique
chameleon-like quality – depending on the circumstances, this blood type can appropriate the characteristics of each of the other blood types. Type AB is sometimes A-like, sometimes B-like and sometimes a fusion of both.
see how confusing (& confused) i can be? *sigh*Type AB reflects the mixed inheritance of their A and B genes. According to Dr. D’Adamo (author of '
Eat Right for Your Type' and '
Live Right for Your Type'), “Type AB has Type A’s low stomach acid, however, they also have Type B’s adaptation to meats. Therefore, you lack enough stomach acid to metabolize them efficiently and the meat you eat tends to get stored as fat.
(O.O) so, i can get fat easily? Your Type B propensities cause the same insulin reaction as Type B when you eat lima beans, corn, buckwheat, or sesame seeds.”
Type AB should
avoid caffeine and alcohol,
what??! but i like caffeine. T-T especially when you’re in stressful situations.
aih..makin stress la makin perlu kopi ow. Dr. D’Adamo recommends that Type AB focus on foods such as tofu, seafood, dairy and green vegetables if you are trying to lose weight. There is a wide variety of
seafood for Type AB, and it is an excellent source of protein for Type AB. A few highly beneficial fish are mahi-mahi, red snapper, salmon, sardines, and tuna. Some dairy is also beneficial for Type AB – especially cultured dairy such as Yogurt and kefir.
Dr. D’Adamo also recommends
smaller, more frequent meals, as they will counteract digestive problems caused by inadequate stomach acid and peptic enzymes. He also suggests that Type AB pay attention to
combining certain food. For example, you’ll digest and metabolize food more efficiently if you avoid eating starches and proteins in the same meal.
apa2 la.Even though people have different capabilities for accommodating stress, we ultimately all have a breaking point. Given enough stressors of a high enough intensity for a long enough period of time, anyone will maladapt. For a Type AB, when it comes to stress hormones, you most resemble Type O in your tendency to overproduce catecholamines like adrenaline. Yet you also have the additional complexity of Type B’s rapid clearing of nitrous oxide, so you
suffer the physical consequences of high emotions. Your greatest danger is the tendency to internalize your emotions, especially anger and hostility, which is much more damaging to your health than externalizing it.
don't worry. i won't always keep my emotions to myself, then. :) Exercise plays a critical component in stress reduction and maintaining a healthy emotional balance for Type AB. Dr. D’Adamo recommends a
combination of both calming activities and more intense physical exercise to help maintain an optimal balance.
mala jak combination ow. mentang2 la AB tok combination of A & B. For example, three days of aerobic exercise such as running or biking and two days of calming exercise such as yoga or tai chi.
Type AB often receives
mixed messages about emotional health. While you tend to be
drawn to other people and are
friendly and trusting,
friends, i do trust you guys. :) there is a side of you that feels
alienated from the larger community. At your best, you are
intuitive and spiritual, with an ability to look beyond the rigid confines of society. You are
passionate in your beliefs, but you also
want to be liked by others and this can create conflicts.
*singing* | me & my heart, we've got issues.. don't know if i should hate you or miss you.. | LOL In an independent study, Type ABs described themselves as
emotional, passionate, friendly, trusting and empathetic.
i kind of agree.- taken from this site -*****
i read this article for fun. just to get to know myself a little bit more. but ultimately, we are shaped by ourselves & the people or things that matter to us. ^^v
