Hi Philip, I have done some reading through a few books about the blood type diet things some while ago, interesting theory, and have also read about that some blood types better not eat peppers. The whole idea behind the blood type theory looks very logical, and yes there has been an evolution in men kind and I can believe that they were divided in farmer and hunter groups and that type O (the hunters) can digest meat better than type A the farmers etc. But just look at our teeth, you find that we have both teeth for eating meat and vegetables If you still have them ;-) , so I can't agree with this rule that A type people better not digest chillies, its a very healthy vegetable!. I have type O neg and for my type it's also not on the green list... but is allowed... As we (the CH) form such a big group of people eating chillies so often, we might change our DNA through our CH children in the future and we together will form the basis of a new blood type...
