 Dont eat until you read this book! June 24, 1998

This book answered my prayers! My family of 4 are all 0+. We battle allergies, ear infections, and ADD. With simple changes to our diet, the allergies are non existant, the continuing ear infection (lasted 4 months) stopped. The ADD has been manageable with just behavior modification. I am looking forward to the next school year! Thank you Dr. D"Adamo!
Phenomenal information - makes a lot of sense June 21, 1998

After reading this book, the light went on for me! It makes so much sense. I am Type O and my husband is Type A. Our personalities are VERY different and our food likes and dislikes are VERY different. While I like pasta and starchy stuff, my husband LOVES them. I'd rather have a grilled Rib-Eye Steak and he'd rather have Macaroni Salad. YUK! I LOVE vegetables but he loves Peanut Butter on Bread. I am trying to cut out the Wheat and Dairy slowly from our whole family's diet. Now that it is summer, we can get some delicious fresh veggies and have a variety of the meats on our list. Question: Does anyone out there know if animals have a variety of blood types also? I would venture to guess that Carnivores (like Wolves, Wolverines, etc.) have pretty much the same types of blood. Bears on the other hand might have different types, because some, like Polar Bears, are limited to what they can find to eat. While Brown bears might have different types than their Northern relatives, because they have such varied diets. Any Thoughts?
It works very well, but... June 8, 1998

I have lost around 30lbs. on this program. That has put me just a little above my "ideal weight." Also, as an 'O+' I suffered from allergies that are now all but gone. The program works, but I would have liked the author to go more into the science behind his claims. It seems he is merely reporting his observations. His whole premise is that the blood type gene is the only gene out of over 100,000 that is responsible for the characteristics of the body that determine what food one should eat. I think there are other genes that play a role.
Finally, an eating plan that WORKS ! May 31, 1998

I was suffering from a severe immune system reaction to the foods I was eating. I have had over 30 years of skin problems and have visited many dermatologists. I also had a life-long weight problem. I had tried every diet known to man (and woman). In January 1998 I started on the ER4YT diet plan for the O blood type. For me, that meant slowly eliminating wheat, sugar and dairy food from my diet, which is also the standard Candida diet. I have also been addicted to sugar, caffeine and bread. With the help of this book and my naturopath, I am feeling 100% better than before. I have lost 25 pounds (I do walk three miles a day!),but it has been easy for me. I hope to lose another 20 pounds or so. I have found through my own experience with this book and the diet, than I can have PLENTY to eat and still lose weight. I plan to make this a life time eating plan. I DID wonder about the intense exercise regimen as excercise had never been my strong point. As my body adjusted and I became more fit, I discovered that I really wanted to get outside and GO! I have even done a bit of jogging in addition to the walking. I have noticed that the allergy symptoms I previously had are much reduced. My energy level is way up. The walking DOES account for some of the that but I am CONVINCED that the change in my diet is also responsible. Recently, I had a sweet dessert after dinner and the next morning I could hardly get up. It has taken three days for my body to recover from that mistake in judgement! I only wish there were more recipes in the book and as some of my choices are still quite limited. I am learning to eat more natural and healthy choices. No more junk food for me. I no longer want it. My cravings are gone. Thank you to my chiropractor, my naturopath and Dr. D'Adamo!!!

I follow Dr. Atkins low-carb way of eating and love the way most of my problems vanished. However, after my initial weight loss, I was stuck on not losing. After reading Dr. D'Adamo's book on blood types, I stopped eating the items on the avoid list for my blood type and I am losing from 1/2 pound to 1 pound a day and feeling much much better. This book is a MUST for people who are looking for solutions to their health problems.
