Diet for blood group 2
The second blood group, as it is believed in this system, arose at a time when mankind passed from a nomadic life to a sedentary one and took up agriculture, therefore its owners are called "Farmers". The diet of ancient farmers consisted mainly of plant foods, the proportion of animal protein in it was much lower than that of the hunters who preceded them. This is how people with the second blood group should eat.
"Farmers" are easily adaptable, their immune system functions effectively if the diet is built correctly. The weaknesses of "Farmers" include a sensitive digestive tract and nervous system, as well as a high susceptibility to infections, a tendency to cancer and heart disease, anemia, diabetes, liver and gall bladder diseases. It is believed that people with the second blood group have a decrease in the secretory function of gastric juice, therefore it is recommended to include fermented milk and soy products in the diet, and it is necessary to abstain from meat and dairy products.

Disadvantages and contraindications of a diet for blood group 2
Diet "Farmers" requires a refusal (and preferably permanent) from so beloved by many dairy and meat products, not everyone is ready for this step, and regular violations lead to a gradual departure from the system.
The absence of a strictly regulated menu obliges one to self-discipline, a responsible and systematic attitude towards its preparation, taking into account not only taste preferences, but also the body's needs for macro- and micronutrients.

In the presence of chronic diseases, the diet should be started after prior consultation with a doctor.
