Diet schemes come and go. Successful plans, backed by powerful media machines, become bestsellers with sequels and food-product lines. But with so many diet books on the market, how do you decide which plan is right for you? According to Peter D'Adamo, the answer depends on your blood type. In his first book, Eat Right 4 Your Type, D'Adamo, a naturopathic physician and researcher, makes interesting and unique connections between human evolution, blood type, diet, exercise, and health. Now, in Cook Right 4 Your Type: The Practical Kitchen Companion to Eat Right 4 Your Type, D'Adamo provides readers with: - Road maps and charts for each of the four blood types, detailing which foods and beverages to consume and which to avoid
- Tips for starting and sticking with the diet and matching your menu to your blood type
- Thirty-day meal plans to help you stay healthy, live longer, and achieve your ideal weight
- More than 200 healthy and easy recipes keyed to blood type
While D'Adamo's theories challenge common nutrition wisdom and his diet can be difficult to follow, Cook Right 4 Your Type will make his advice a little easier to swallow. --Ellen Albertson
Product Description
4 Blood Types, 4 Diets. That was the call that brought more than 300,000 people out to buy the most innovative diet book of the decade, the first to tell us what everyone instinctively knows: that different people need different diets. After nearly twenty years of research, Dr. D'Adamo revealed the connection between blood type, diet, and health. Now, with the help of a team of chefs, Dr. D'Adamo presents a book chock-full of background and delicious recipes for each blood type. For meat eaters or vegetarians, thirty-day meal plans help you integrate the diet into your life, and there's plenty of advice for eating well on the run. Cook Right 4 Your Type is the essential guide for living with a sensible diet individualized for you while still allowing you to eat foods that seem like major indulgences. From lamb stew to lemon squares, from braised vegetables to delicious soups, you'll barely notice you've started a regimen designed to optimize your health, your weight, and your total well-being.

This is just the most recent book we have read by Dr. D'Adamo. His educational secrets on diet have changed our lives forever. Well worth reading, if you are open to changes in how you eat.
 very basic and boring recipes October 15, 2009
A. Hett (Hamburg)
I bought this book and another edition from this authors called eat right for your type. The latter is much better,because it describes what is highly beneficial for your blood type and what you should avoid. After knowing this you can easily integrate this knowledge in your every day cooking. I really expected more from the cook right for your type book! First of all the layout is not very appealing, no colours, no pcitures. The recipes as such are very basic and boring no haute cuisine!!! I think you will soon get tired when eating this every day! I think I will have to look in my favourite cook books and alter the recipes according to my blood type.
All in all I cannot really recommend this book. But for people who like basic and simple cooking this book maybe helpful.
It really works! September 23, 2009
Jenny S.H. (Oahu/Big Island, Hawaii)
I am not overweight but have noticed a change in my improved energy levels, I find it easier to maintain a healthy weight and my overall mood has also improved when I stick with my blood type diet. I was worried about missing the foods I love (I'm type A but I loved lamb, bread & cheeses) but I still have these in much smaller amounts while focusing on the "feel good" foods. I now know what foods IMMEDIATELY make me feel tired and drained. The only problem I noticed is one error with a recipe measurement (omitted) and a soy product was listed as "beneficial" for blood type "B". Other than those errors--which you can double-check against the main index--this book has easy-to-follow recipes and an easy-to-follow blood type food guide.
Ok cookbook September 11, 2009
R. Somero (New Ipswich, NH)
This cookbook is nice to look through, but most of the items in it are not items I can purchase very easily. Not located too close to a health food store. I did make the turkey burgers and they were EXCELLENT! So if I could buy more of the ingredients easily, I would probably like it. I do like that fact that on top of each recipe it says what blood types can have it, since my children have a different type then my husband and I.
Love this Cookbook! July 10, 2009
M. Kuhr-Grace
This is the first specialized cookbook that has real recipes I can use everyday. I am a person who enjoys sauces and dressings and usually dressings are my diet downfall. This book provides plenty of yummy recipes for my salads and stir-fries. My family thought I was on another fad diet and planned to eat out until my "diet" ran it's course. With these recipes no body has declined dinner in favor of fast food. I now have a recipe box of favorites for the family.
