Right Diet For Your Blood Type (Importance of Blood Types)

You have the red blood cells (carries Oxygen), white blood cells (soldiers), for protection against infections, proteins that deliver nutrients to tissues, platelets that help the clot, and plasma that contains the guardians of our immune system.
Your blood type has always been the driving force behind human survival, changing and adapting to new conditions, environments and foods supplies. So blood types is the key to your body’s entire immune system. The immune system works to define “self” and destroy “non-self”.
