What can I eat on a low GI diet?

How to be a vegetarian, eat low GI foods and try to stick to blood type B diet?

  • Yes, I know... but I don't want to eat animals or fish. Eggs are forbidden on Type B diet, and I can't have insulin spikes with High GI foods. I also want to eat filling meals. Only intelligent and serious answers please. Thank you.

  • Answer:

    It's actually kind of hard to be a low carb vegetarian. Not all carbs are created equal, you know. If you stick with complex carbs and whole grains, you should be fine. If you're diabetic, you should run that by a RD just to be sure I'm right. No animals, no fish, no eggs. Maybe you should cut out dairy too, and just be straight vegan. I turned vegan three days ago, and I have to warn you that the detox phase sucks. I have flu-like symptoms, but they should go away in a couple of days. Okay, you'll need to take a B-12 supplement, and eat dark leafy greens for iron. You can get your protein from soy, nuts, and seeds. There are a lot of vegetarian/vegan websites out there - even some groups on Live Journal. Just do some research and make sure it's right for you.

Dr Joel Fuhrman has compiled a chart of about 100 common foods, listed by nutrients per 100 calories. (First link). When you look at the list, you'll see that the top sixty or so foods are vegan. Kale is the highest rated food at 1,000. The highest rated animal product is salmon at 39. If you get the bulk of your calories from those top foods and pretty much avoid anything else, you'll have a healthy diet. He suggests a lot of salads and homemade vegetable soups.
