GREEN BODY TYPES
Morphology.
Green body types have the adrenal cortex gland as their primary coordinating hormonal gland. The adrenal cortex regulates water retention, hypoglycemia, the immune system and the sex hormones via aldosterone, cortisol, DHEA, testosterone and the estrogens.
They are generally strongly built and in the taller percentile of the population possibly emanating from the Scandinavian regions. Heights for males is 5ft 8in (173cm) and above and females 5ft7in (170cm) and above. The key feature is muscular development and intramuscular water retention.
The hands are square with tubular fingers about as long as the palm. The face tends to be triangular or square.
Good resistance to disease and get well quickly. They work and play hard. Along with the adrenal glands the thymus tends to be their weakest gland and may suffer asthma and allergies. The adrenals are stimulated by sodium and cholesterol and so crave salt and salty foods and greasy foods like crisps and chips. They get stronger and stronger as the day progresses and those who stimulate their adrenals tend to drink alcohol in the evenings to relax. They are hard working, intelligent and positive but very chemically sensitive. Temperament can be explosive.
Late to bed and late to rise is the norm.
Health risks.
Green people are workaholics and so tend to work, work and work until they drop. Once the adrenal glands have become exhausted recovery takes time, requiring much rest and suitable nutritional intervention, sometimes needing glandular tissue nutritional support.
They tend towards high blood pressure and some types of heart disease. Always sensitive to nickel so must avoid jewelry, piercings, watch straps and buckles containing this metal.

Food intolerances.
Main intolerance is to casein, the protein in cheese. Cooked cheese is especially detrimental to their health. Genetically they have difficulty metabolizing alpha solanine, a toxin found in the deadly nightshade foods such as potatoes, tomatoes, green bell peppers, green chillis and aubergines.
Diet.
Plenty of fruits, vegetables, legumes (such as black beans and pinto beans), whole grains such as brown rice, starchy vegetables like yams, lean meat, and seafood. Avoid as much as possible potatoes, tomatoes, green peppers, chilli.
Avoid cheese especially cooked.
Responds well to the Food combining diet(Hay diet).
Supplements.
Vitamins.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) activated Vitamin B6 (P5P) Folic acid, Vitamin B12 (Hydroxycobalamin) Choline
Minerals
Boron, Copper, Selenium, Silica, Zinc.
Should be taken in water 1-3 times a day with meals
Oils.
(predominantly Omega 6 plant based oils) Grape seed oil, Hazelnut oil, Peanut oil and Sesame seed oil.
All oils must be organic, cold pressed and taken with the evening meal.
Never cook with any of these oils.
Oils to be taken with evening meal.
Weight gain.
Generalised watery fatty deposition all over when under stress and the adrenals are hyperactive due to increased levels of aldosterone retaining water in the tissues. Rapid weight loss in hypoadrenic state due to loss of water.
