Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo has forever changed the strategy for eating right to lose weight and achieving maximum health. Because he discovered what many already instinctively knew-that a plan that works for one person may make another ill-there will never be a one-size-fits-all diet again. And since we now know that each blood type is affected differently by common diseases and conditions, there will never be a one-size-fits-all plan of action. With more than 2 million copies of his books in print, G. P. Putnam's Sons announces the launch of Dr. D'Adamo's Eat Right 4 (for) Your Type Library. Over the next two years, eight books will be published on eight different conditions, the first two being cancer and diabetes. In these books, readers will find new information individualized for their blood type and illness. In addition to the food categories Beneficial, Neutral, and Avoid, Dr. D'Adamo introduces a new category-Superbeneficial-for helping your body fight disease. He also introduces self-assessment tests to determine status and measure progress. Supplement, lifestyle, and exercise protocols are tailored to each blood type and condition. There has never been a better arsenal for fighting disease, and never an easier or clearer tool.

Message from a Cancer Fighter:
Please bear with this long review. I am currently being treated for breast cancer and I have AB blood type. My chiropractor gave me this book.

This cancer is known to be more aggressive in Black women. Based on those factors, I knew that I did not want a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. I had never been able to conquer my... more info
Good Book--Must Read for Cancer Patients:
I think it is extremely helpful for those who especially are unfamiliar w/naturopathic medicine and supplementation. He goes the extra mile in examining the link between blood type antigen and cancer cells. A must read for anyone going through chemo. or recent diagnosis. I wish everyone that had cancer would read this book--though he gives even more information and background in his general book "Eat Right For Your Type" from the mid 90s.
Doesn't add up:
I am blood type A. My maternal Grandmother was Type A and died at the age of 89. My maternal Grandfather is blood type A and he is a healthy, still driving and gardening 98. His parents died in their early nineties(they were also blood type A). Now, as for the way they ate-pork was the number one meat item on their food list(by the way-it's the one meat not recommended for any of the blood types). My grandfather eats cabbage all the time( another avoid for type A). My Great grandfather used to dip bread in... more info
Nonsense!!!!!:
Genetics, diet (not blood-tye specific), and exercise are the answer!
The info in this book goes directly against my experience and that of my family.
My Grandmother was type A and she passed away this year at 94 from pnuemonia, not cancer. I suspect boredom is the real culprit, she had lost her eyesight and hearing in the last year. She told me she was tired and ready to complete her journey. BTW she ate meat (beef or chicken) at every meal. Steak and eggs or ham and eggs was the usual breakfast for... more info
