What's Your GenoType?
GenoType 1
The Hunter
Tall, thin, and intense, with an overabundance of adrenaline and a fierce, nervous energy that winds down with age, the Hunter was originally the success story of the human species. Vulnerable to systemic burnout when overstressed, the Hunter's modern challenge is to conserve energy for the long haul.
GenoType 2
The Gatherer
Full-figured, even when not overweight, the Gatherer struggles with body image in a culture where thin is "in." An unsuccessful crash dieter with a host of metabolic challenges, the Gatherer becomes a glowing example of health when properly nourished.
GenoType 3
The Teacher
Strong, sinewy, and stable, with great chemical synchronicity and stamina, the Teacher is built for longevity--given the right diet and lifestyle. This is the genotype of balance, blessed with a tremendous capacity for growth and fulfillment.

GenoType 4
The Explorer
Muscular and adventurous, the Explorer is a biological problem solver, with an impressive ability to adapt to environmental changes, and a better than average capacity for gene repair. The Explorer's vulnerability to hormonal imbalances and chemical sensitivities can be overcome with a balanced diet and lifestyle.
GenoType 5
The Warrior
Long, lean, and healthy in youth, the Warrior is subject to a bodily rebellion in midlife.With the optimal diet and lifestyle, the Warrior can overcome the quick-aging metabolic genes and experience a second, "silver," age of health.
GenoType 6
The Nomad
A GenoType of extremes, with a great sensitivity to environmental conditions--especially changes in altitude and barometric pressure, the Nomad is vulnerable to neuromuscular and immune problems. Yet a well-conditioned Nomad has the enviable gift of controlling caloric intake and aging gracefully.

The author of the international bestseller Eat Right 4 Your Type again breaks new ground with the first diet plan based on your unique genetic code.
With Eat Right 4 Your Type and additional books in the Blood Type Diet® series, Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo pioneered a new, revolutionary approach to dieting--one linked to a person's blood type. In the GenoType Diet, he takes his groundbreaking research to the next level by identifying six unique genetic types. Whether you are a Hunter, Gatherer, Teacher, Explorer, Warrior, or Nomad, Dr. D'Adamo offers a customized program that compliments your genetic makeup to maximize health and weight loss, as well as prevent or even reverse disease. In simple, concise prose, Dr. D'Adamo explains how a host of environmental factors, including diet and lifestyle, dictate how and when your genes express themselves. He goes on to demonstrate precisely how, with the right tools, you can alter your genetic destiny by turning on the good genes and silencing the bad ones. Your health risks, weight, and life span can all be improved by following The GenoType Diet that's right for you.
Using family history and blood type, as well as simple diagnostic tools like fingerprint analysis, leg length measurements, and dental characteristics, Dr. D'Adamo shows you how to map out your genetic identity and discover which of the six GenoType plans you should follow. Without expensive tests or a visit to the doctor, The GenoType Diet reveals previously hidden genetic strengths and weaknesses and provides a precise diet and lifestyle plan for every individual. Based on the latest and most cutting-edge genetic research, this is a twenty-first-century plan for wellness and weight loss from a renowned healthcare pioneer.

Too Restrictive with No Reasons Given "Toxic" Fruits and Vegetables:

I gave this diet one star, because I feel that "What is your Genotype" would probably be a great conversation opening line for a single person in the dating scene. Kind of a new variation of "What's your (Astrological) Sign?". When the person responds .. "Gee, I don't know what my genotype is" the single person says, "Give me your hand so I can take a closer look" .. YES! This is good for the dating scene. ;)
However, as far as a diet that I would follow? No, I cannot recommend this diet. The Genotype... more info

EXPLORE IT:

Dr. D'Adamo's Eat Right 4 Your Type identified foods for my blood type that make me feel better. Eat Right 4 Your Type was a revolutionary work. The GenoType Diet is an evolution of Eat Right 4 Your Type that integrates genetic identity with nutrition, and creates individualized diets. He separates us into six separate genetic types - Hunter, Gatherer, Teacher, Explorer, Warrior, and Nomad - and describes how to figure out which type we each fall into. Then he prescribes what foods to emphasize and what we... more info

Easier than you might think:

Figuring out your geno type on Dr. D'Adamo's GenoType Diet can be confusing and definately requires a friend to help you with the various measurements. But changing to some of the strange foods and avoiding foods you've eaten all your life turned out to be remarkably easy for me. I found all my cravings disappeared almost immediately. In seven weeks I lost nine pounds without dieting--in fact I ate more than I normally would, and my sinus condition cleared up.
It was funny to me that health foods like... more info

Interesting idea:

I have a friend who bought this book and is using it to lose weight. It is actually working for her, as unusual as the idea sounds. I plan to begin it soon.
