What is
The GenoType Diet?
An evolution of the Blood Group Diet, the
GenoType Diet
is based on genetic factors
that can be easily determined at home or in a clinical
setting. As well as using ABO and Rhesus blood group,
secretor status and other genetic factors, your GenoType
also depends on influences other than hard-coded changes in
DNA, called epigenetic factors. These epigenetic factors change
the way your genes express themselves. For example, stress
on the mother during pregnancy can influence the
environment in the womb before birth, which affects
expression of the genes of the unborn child throughout the
rest of their life.
Important ways to measure the influence of epigenetics on
an individual is the ratios between the following body
parts:
• Torso and legs;
• Upper and lower legs;
• Length of the second and fourth fingers on each hand.
Add these factors to your blood group, Rhesus group,
secretor status and gender, and you can calculate your
GenoType using The GenoType
Diet book.
The possible GenoTypes are limited by ABO blood group:
• Hunter (blood
group O only)
• Gatherer (blood groups O and B)
• Teacher (blood groups A and AB)
• Explorer (any blood group)
• Warrior (blood groups A and AB)
• Nomad (blood groups B and AB)
Each of the six diets are based on one of three
epigenetic
worldviews, (reactor, receptor or thrifty), and helps
to balance your interaction with the world accordingly.
Specially designed supplements can also help maintain
health corresponding to your GenoType.
To get the best out of the Blood Group Diet and GenoType
Diet systems, discover whether one or a blend of both
systems is the most appropriate for you. For more
information see the SWAMI GenoType page
