I always notice a little swelling when I eat ground beef. Nothing major, pants just fit a little tighter the next day, and wedding ring fits a little tighter. Mind you, this was not more than about a small hamburger patty worth of ground beef mixed into pasta. Still, tends to stay with me a little bit.
Just curious if anyone else notices this, and if there are other foods that do this to a lot of people.
Animal protein is the hardest and slowest to digest. Babies are given it last after rice, grains, fruit and veggies. I suspect it is the salt also and water retention. Many people and restaurants add a huge amount of salt to meat.
Your blood type influences your digestion A+ and - don't do that well. Also your liver produces
bile and stores it in the gallbladder. Bile aids in digestion . If you don't have enough acid in your
gut it causes reflux (even reflux asthma) My suggestion is to grind beef and repeat grinding ground beef. Steak is way too tough to break down. Combining a protein with a carb increases digestion by double the normal process!!! We A+- folks have problems with certain foods like bananas ! We need to chew our food longer as well.

This is absolute BS. Your blood type has nothing to do with it. I am an SBB Blood Transfusion Specialist as well as Molecular Diagnostic Specialist.

Beef is hard to digest for most people. Google can be your freind in looking this up.
Do an experiment, eat the same amt with no starch, sugar or carb with the meat.
I never eat meat with a potato or bread or pasta or dessert.
Basic no no in food combining.
(Of course, Americans weren't brought up this way.)
Also, after this experiment try eating some meat with a super digestive enzyme...
Meaning a spread of enzymes not just protease.

With all due respect, TVC, when you have written a book and done extensive research
on the subject of food and blood types I'll listen to you rather than Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo.
(or Dr. Robert Young for that matter....)
I'm sure you are very good at what you do.

With all due respect Miss Hepburn just because someone has written a book or a science journal does not mean that it equates to the truth.
All the blood bank knowledge I have came from well studied and very solid science that is well established.
BTW:Throughout his books, D'Adamo cites the works of biochemists and glycobiologists who have researched blood groups, claiming or implying that their research supports this theory. The consensus among dietitians, physicians, and scientists is that the theory is unsupported by scientific evidence.
Hi TVC,
Why did I know u would say all this? Every single word...
You could do a test yourself...when ur under the weather...really feeling lousy
for a week...eat only what ur blood type shouldn't. See how ya do.

Oops, that's not scientific...forget it.
How did I know that you were going to post exactly what you did.
Did you know that D'Adamo did not carry out scientific research to support his claims.
There is a lack of scientific evidence supporting the associations between disease states and ABO blood types as mentioned on Peter D'Adamo's website.
Now that's not very scientific and I'm not into the fluff.
