I have a friend who is a type B. She is the one who told me about
the blood type diet in the first place. I was desperately looking
for a cure for my allergies so I jumped in whole hog. She however
majorly dragged her feet. She tried convincing me that she couldn't
have dairy. She had been lactose intolerant ever since she could
remember.
At that time I had just started the diet so I had nothing to "fight"
back with. More experience to fall back on. I did the diet for
about 6 months and during that time period I noticed that if I ever
ate any kind of wheat products, this includes white flour, and meat
at the same time I would have mild heart problems. It would hurt to
take deep breaths. I'd had this problem for many years but I blamed
it on the meat. We ate a vegetarian diet and whenever I would eat
meat I would have problems. So after watching this cycle, which I
tested a few times, I was pretty sure that it was the wheat causing
the problems. I finally thought that I had something conclusion that
I could hand to my friend.
We had moved by this time so I sent her an e-mail telling her what I
had discovered and thought that perhaps whe wouldn't have a lactose
intolerance if she were to eliminate wheat/white flour and corn from
her diet. Well, I finally convinced her to try it. She said that
she would give it a two week trial period. To my knowledge that two
weeks has stretched into nearly 4 years! After she took wheat out
of her diet she was able to eat all of the dairy listed that was ok
for her to eat. And she never got a runny nose or other symptoms
from eating dairy. Made me down right jealous! Oh well, a life
without dairy isn't so bad. I would rather feel good, than to just
have my taste buds tickled all the time!
So anyway, perhaps your brother-in-law would be open to giving it a
try. Sometimes people who are facing a life or death situation such
as cancer are something willing to give anything a try. Especially
after experiencing Chemo!
Hope this helps!
