This book was recommended to us by a friend. She knows my husband is fighting pancreatic cancer and we are trying everything natural that we can. She said that she has tried what the book recommends for her blood type and feels better since she has been following it. So we thought we ought to see what it has to say. The only thing that was negative about this transaction was the long time it took to get to us - nearly 3 weeks!

I first purchased this book to improve my health and weight loss goals. The book is more than that. It really explains the factors about your own blood type so you can understand exactly what each food type is doing or not doing for you. The foods that I thought were healthy for me and have been eating for years, are the exact foods that are working against me and my metabolism. I am 3 weeks into my eating program, and it is simply not a diet. I have eliminated the foods that are on my "avoid" list and have implemented some new foods that I have never had and now find delicious. I am three weeks in and 3kgs down. My mind is clearer and I sleep better. Great book.

this is science backed information that makes sense.... there is not one type of diet that works well for everyone because we are all slightly different. That difference is in our blood. It is a fascinating journey Dr D'Adamo takes us on... from the beginnings of the human species to the evolutionary adaptations we made to cope with landscape and climate change. It changed our blood types and this changed the type of foods each blood type needs to thrive. I highly recommend this book. It is fascinating and helpful for anyone wanting to create a way of eating which is satisfying but also healthy.

I bought the original version back in 2000. I purchased the updated version because I was interested in seeing information for the many foods which were not widely available back then, but are now. Also, in the intervening years, the health benefit status of many foods has changed due to continued research. The revised/updated version does take into consideration the newer health information. The book is thorough & has a lot of good information.
