Blood Type B Food, Beverage and Supplemental Lists Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)So now that you've read Eat Right For Your Type and are familiar with the basic theories behind the blood type diets, you need a list that you can grab and take with you on those grocery shopping trips or for those dinners out where you may find menu items that you can't quite remember as either Recommended, Neutral, or Avoid. This is one of those pocket references that was made to be convenient for these situations if you happen to be a type B like most of my family.
(If you haven't read the abovementioned book first, you should. It explains in detail the hows and whys of eating according to one's blood type - O, A, B, or AB - instead of the dictates of popular trends. Foods are divided into three lists for each blood type: Highly Recommended (foods that have some great benefit or another and act almost as medicine in your system), Neutral (basics that are neither highly beneficial nor bad), or Avoid (foods that you should avoid, either because they have a bad effect on your blood type's metabolism, immune system, digestion, etc). But back to the review...)
The format of this list book is divided into convenient chapters that each represent a food group, such as Ch.1, Meats and Poultry, Ch. 2, Seafood, Ch.3, Eggs and Dairy, Ch.4, Fats and Oils, and so on until we have categorized every type of common edible into 14 sections altogether. Each chapter also has a brief introductory essay explaining a few highlights of the lists that follow, for instance, why certain healthy veggies such as tomatoes ended up on the Avoid list for type Bs and why Pineapple is on the Highly Recommended list. Most of the selections are not explained in detail however, so the reader must take these recommendations on faith. Also included are chapters on supplementation and medical strategies utilizing these lists.
Now several years have passed since the original publication of ERFYT and I have noticed when comparing the lists in it verses the lists in this more recent pocket reference that there are several discrepancies. For instance, salmon was a Neutral fish in ERFYT but it now ranked as Highly Beneficial. That could very well be because of the research that has been done after ERFYT which uncovered new benefits of salmon that were unknown before; I suspect several of these improved rankings have a similar explanation There are more examples from each chapter that I could go into. I can only trust that these changes are indeed the results of further research and not publication mistakes.
Bottom line, this is a very convenient reference to those of us who may have lent our copy of ERFYT to a friend after discovering the great personal freedom and physical well-being that comes with aligning one's diet with blood type. Get this one if you're a type B; otherwise get the one that matches your blood type.
