Blood Type Theory &
Application
Blood is the fluid of life. In many
religions and cultures, blood has been given metaphoric attributes that
range from symbols of life to respect for the dead to the saving of
life. For each of us physically, our blood is literally the fluid of
life. Our blood is pumped throughout our whole body carrying nutrients
to each cell and removing wastes. Without healthy blood, our cells die
and life is not possible.
Today, there is a ground-swell of
support for the premise that good health depends in part on how your
lifestyle and diet compliments your blood type. Cedar Bear Naturales™
now has the only liquid herbal blood type nutritional supplements made
with 'whole' herb ingredients, that also taste's good!
There are four blood types. They are
Type O, the most dominant and oldest, Type A, the next most dominant and
second oldest, Type B, less common than Type A and only a couple of
millennia old, and Type AB, the least common and newest blood type that
is only a few centuries old.
Each of these CBN™ blood type
formulas have very specific and unique characteristics and qualities
needed to balance an individual’s health.
The Model for Life™ and Blood
Type Theory
In 1982, the 4-Fold Model for Life™
was conceived by the founder & president of Cedar Bear Naturales™,
Inc., L. Carl Robinson. This model has since become the basis of a
popular revival in ‘Western Herbal Energetics’ and serves as an
integrative therapy approach for many successful complimentary holistic
health programs.
The 4-Fold Model for Life™ is based
on the time-honored notion that all life manifests to one degree or
another the four elements of nature – Air, Fire, Earth, and Water. The
holy writ of many cultures refers extensively to these qualities of
nature in metaphor, meaningful symbolism and as literal forces of
creation and destruction.
The most outstanding thing about the
Model for Life™ is not only its profound simplicity, but its universal
applicability to many things in nature and life, including the applied
theory of ‘Nutritional Blood Typing.’ There are some underlying
premises embodied in popular contemporary blood type diet theories first
published in the mid-1990's that correlate with a number of the well
proven principles and applications of the 4 varying qualities of the
decades standing 4-Fold Model for Life™ out of which Nutritional Blood
Typing emerged.
An 'Integrative' Approach
Even so, development and formulating
of the unique CBN™ Daily Herbals™ for Your Blood Type products
involved more than just blood type theories. While other blood type
products are based on the decidely singular reductionistically based 'lectin-binding'
premise, CBN™ Daily Herbals™ are more integrative and holistic in
their premise, action and applications. Nutritional therapy, clinical
herbalism, nutritional pH factoring, alchemically based herbal
energetics and mineral signature theory were, among a number of other
factors, all a part of the integrative approach to developing and
formulating these products.
The latter, the 'Mineral Signature'
theory as originated by L. Carl Robinson, is unique to CBN™ Daily
Herbals™ and takes the position of each blood type having a greater
intrinsic need for one of the base mineral electrolytes over that of the
other three. Type 'O' is potassium, Type 'A' is calcium, Type 'B' is
sodium, and Type 'AB' is magnesium. Each CBN™ Daily Herbal™ for Your
Blood Type product possesses the mineral signature intrinsic to the
specific blood type it is made for. This point alone sets our products
apart from all others in the marketplace. In addition, these formulas
each possess a unique pH balanced aspect not found in any other products
of their type.
Cedar Bear Naturales™ Daily Herbals™
for Your Blood Type are unique, great tasting, 100% alcohol-free, and
used once-a-day first thing in the morning. CBN™ Daily Herbals™ are
nutritionally dense, mineral rich, blood building and balancing, yet
they do not over stimulate the immune system.
