I think you can do a blood test to define your blood type, and it should show your Rh factor, too. As explained on those link pages, it might be worth knowing if you ever consider having a baby, and in case of blood transfusion (0 Rh- cannot receive 0 Rh+ blood in transfusion, but the other way round it is OK). (which is so unfair! :lol: )

have a good day!

Well my blood type is A positive. My mother's blood type was O positive and my father's blood type was A negative. I don't know what that means, but I do have the dermatitis problems big time. I am being tested for celiac disease. Interesting though don't you think? I also have Systemic Lupus. Oh well.

Hi

I have been lurking but here goes

I am the odd one out also. AB +

Northern Europeon Ancestry, strongly German with some Irish, Dutch and maybe English thrown in. A Hienz 57 mix.

The B part I understand comes from Asia, some Mongolaian tribesman many eons ago put it in the family line. The A is european.

Interesting with all the Os. I seem to have an O metablism with the AB typing.

It seems to me tha celiac has more to do with some gene types rather than blood typing.

I'm A positive. I recently got the Blood type book (only skimmed it so far - but I remember it saying to avoid wheat gluten for A's). I will have to read the bood for real now!

I am O-. I will have to learn more about the blood type diets. Someone once told me that Os need to eat more protein because they get anemic easily.

:lol: A+ here too and so is my sister, who also is a celiac--i tried the blood type diet, but found the soy they recommend for A+ to be too much for my system--soy sensitive, maybe not intolerant, but definately sensitive and i do believe i can handle my dairy--i did change to olive oil though and try to stay away from too much sugars :D deb

On my trip to Barnes & Noble today, I was thumbing through some books related to celiac. An author (whom I don't remember... sorry) mentioned that there was a higher level of occurance of celiacs with blood type O. I thought I'd test the theory, if you're willing.

And what is my type??? O neg :blink:

I am O+.....I just read the "Eat right for your type" book and was shocked about what he had said about intestional problems with O+/- people....I was wondering about celiac and O people too......

I'm B+. I don't put a lot of credence in the blood type diet, though. The fact that there are more o-type people here on the board could simply be chalked up to the fact that it's the most common blood type. 37% of the general population has it. Statistically speaking, of course any segment of the population would have more O-type individuals than the other blood types, with all other factors being equal.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!
