This is our page which features diet and weight loss programs that are based on an attempt to customize the plan for individual blood types and personal genetics which we are born with. Many view these plans as pseudoscience while others think they have merit that has been born out by looking at family and cultural histories.
The most well know blood type diet was created by Naturopath Peter D'Adamo, author of "Eat Right for Your Type" and "The GenoType Diet." According to him, blood type determines which foods to eat. When you eat foods that "agree" with your blood type, you reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, infections, and liver disease. According to the theory:
Type A should be a vegetarian and avoid meat and dairy products.
Type B should eat red meat and fish.
Type O should eat lots of animal protein and little carbohydrates.
Type AB should eat a combination of Types A and B.
Acid-Alkaline Our blood is slightly alkaline, with a pH level of between 7.35 and 7.45. The theory behind the "Acid-Alkaline Diet" is that our diet should reflect this pH level.
Ultrametabolism claims to discover the link between our genetics, the foods we eat, and our weight.
