Actually, I wouldn't say I am strongly attracted to RAF, except during a 2 week-period when I was wildly attracted to... farmed salmon (among other fishes), and a 3 week-period with 1 chicken/day on average. Usually, I eat RAF at 1 or 2 meals a week: one or two egg yolks or some fish in moderate quantity. Concerning dairy, when my diet was still cooked, I used to drink 1 or 2 bowls of "raw" pasteurized milk a day, but I didn't like cheese or yoghurt. BTW, here is the repartition of blood types among a few populations (I found it at http://members.aol.com/akaulins/expak/expakbld.htm): People O A B AB ___________________________________ USA-whites 45 41 10 4 French 43 47 7 3 Eskimos-Alaska 38 44 13 5 Eskimos-Grnlnd. 54 39 5 2 Japanese 30 38 22 10 Tartars 28 30 29 13 Peru indians 100 0 0 0 Blackfoot 17 82 0 1? Notice that the Japanese consume raw fish but not dairy, despite the high proportion of B's comparatively to O's. Same kind of remarks for Eskimos from Alaska. And also the amazing difference between Peru indians and Blackfoot. Best wishes, Jean-Louis
