Great book Aug 31, 2010
I had read this book before; it is very easy to read and it makes sense to me from a medical and scientific perspective. I had my own copy; but have loaned it out to several friends and co workers. It was time I ordered another copy. The copy I ordered was in nearly perfect condition.

 eat right for your blood type Aug 12, 2010
Great book. Great resource. Book has been popular for a long time. Great to pick up a couple of used books for a vaction and recreational reading.

Froim a skeptic-this is NOT woo! Aug 12, 2010
First, a note to those starting out: DO follow the sample three day plans laid out by a nutritionist in the book. Do plan your meals until you really have a feel for this. Follow the variations in those three days, eventually figuring out how to fill in your own blanks.
I have been eating according to my blood type for 10 weeks. I went cold turkey. As a type B, this wasn't difficult. To be honest, I wanted to rave about this book on third day, when I started feeling terrific, but I decided to wait.
-I have lost two dress sizes without counting calories, measuring portions or paying for a diet plan. I have exercised no more or less than before.
-Fibromyalgia has not gone away, but I am in far less pain, and have gone from being bedridden in pain to only one minor flare up in the ten weeks since starting. This change is huge. I cannot express how chronic pain brings you down and interferes with all aspects of your life. This is minimal now.
-My metabolism is working. My body temp went up from 96 to a gloriously normal 98.7. I was sluggish, slow, cold all the time, wouldn't even sweat after 40 minutes on the treadmill. I'm normal again! Now, when I exercise, I sweat, and now finally, my normal portions are resulting in weight loss, not weight gain.
-Regulated and painless female cycles.
-energy and endorphins galore!
-hypoglycemia gone
I think the science should be investigated more deeply with this diet. I am an avowed skeptic, but at the recommendation of several medical doctors I decided to try. I will never regret it. I would never trade how I feel for the foods I gave up. I don't even crave them. I have to remember to eat, and after I do, I feel wonderful. I am the third person in my family to have great, real, measured success in chronic health issues and weight on this plan. A dear friend of mine with rheumatoid arthritis started eating for her type--which I will note, the author says he sees most frequently with A's like her. She has had a remarkable improvement as well, enough to keep her off dairy and meat, her previous favorites.

Eat Right 4 Your Type... Aug 03, 2010
Well written and organized book based upon tangible data. To be broken down by blood type, gender, ethnicity, and cabon footprint (okay, I'm kidding about the carbon footprint), this book has some interesting data that seems plausible and after dropping 10lbs in 2 weeks doing nothing but eating "highly beneficial" foods, it was a bit scary to see how eliminating chicken and not avoiding red meat could have done that for me.
I have recommended the book to my family, friends, and co-workers.

 Blood Test Eldon Cards - Tested Twice did NOT work - FAIL Jul 26, 2010
Eat Right 4 Your Type Home Blood Typing Kit with Eldoncard Forget about the book, I can't even find out what my blood type is. I purposely bought two cards in the event that the first time didn't work, but even after following directions with help, both cards turned up two different answers and neither were choices of blood types. I'd love to read the book but it's useless without knowing what type I am and it's too expensive to get the test done at the hospital. I spent $20 on the two cards and they both FAILED me. Not impressed.
