01/15/2007: Dr. Peter D'Adamo attempts to prove that to achieve optimal health, a person should consume a prescribed diet based on their blood type. Now, I am not a scientist. However, I am fairly health conscious and I believe that there is some correlation between diet and blood type. My blood type is 'A -' and his description of Type A individuals was pretty accurate. For example, Type A individuals are described as having sensitive digestive systems and producing a lot of mucus. I have a sensitive digestive system and my body does produce a lot of mucus. Therefore I avoid orange juice, milk, and any other mucus-producing foods. I also avoid drinking beer because it upsets my stomach. Dr D'Adamo also recommended that Type A people adopt a vegetarian diet because Type A people tend to be susceptible to cardiovascular disease. That's also true, but that could be said for other blood types as well. I've dealt with elevated cholestorol despite being fairly health conscious and I also know people who can eat anything and maintain normal to low cholestorol. So, I believe that some people burn cholesterol differently and a factor could be blood type. What I found really useful with this book is that he recommended foods that were beneficial,neutral, and foods to be avoid for each blood type. Overall, this is one of many good diet books out in the market. However, I am also a realist. If you can implement 80% of what Dr. D'Adamo recommends, you will have much improved health!

01/08/2002: Dr. Peter D?Adamo has written a very interesting adjunct to his superb book, Live Right 4 Your Type. If you have already read that earlier book, you will find this book adds to your knowledge by letting you know about the latest research about the statistical correlations of various diseases and illnesses to those with various blood types. I wrote down the illnesses that I have more frequently than other people I know, and the diseases I have experienced before reading this book. I checked my experience against what the book reports, and found a high correlation (I have had two additional problems not typical of my Type O blood, and have not experienced three problems often associated with Type O people). I did the same for my wife, who has a different blood type, and found that her pattern reasonably closely matched what is described in the book as well. Then, the book has an excellent discussion of why people with each blood type can be affected differently by each illness or disease. You are also given extensive suggestions for herbal therapies that match your herb type. I have not had experiences with the herbs that were suggested for me, so I cannot comment on how relevant they are. If you already use herbs to improve conditions, you will probably adore this book. If you don?t use many herbs, you will probably appreciate understanding more about the potential strengths and weaknesses of your blood chemistry. The book is quite thorough in providing articles you can read for more details, and where to access these articles on-line. If you have not read Live Right 4 Your Type, you will find that this book covers almost the same background material but at a much higher level of abstraction. There is a fairly complete discussion of how blood types seem to have developed and what their chemical implications are. In other ways, the book is quite complete in similarity to the earlier ones. For example, you get the food indications for each blood type, essentially like the information in both Eat Right 4 Your Type and Live Right 4 Your Type. Many people are skeptical about Dr. D?Adamo?s work. I found him careful about what he had to say. For example, he notes that the risk charts in the book describe how blood type ?in conjunction with other factors . . . may be [associated with] an increased risk for developing a certain disease.? As to the diseases and illnesses, I was impressed to see how much different cancers were broken down by the part of the body affected while different infections were also segmented. I always find it helpful to keep the research-based associations to blood type in mind when I read other books about nutrition, health, and diseases. Perhaps someday other health authors will add this perspective to their work, as well. Until then, I am very grateful to Dr. D?Adamo for helping me understand how to make the most out of being a Type O person! How can you turn your strengths and weaknesses into resources for improving the quality of your life . . . and those you care about? Keep your mind and your body full of the most helpful resources you can add! Donald Mitchell, co-author of The 2,000 Percent Solution and The Irresistible Growth Enterprise
