About this title

From the Author:

Author's experiences: "As a nutritionist I ate, for many years, what I considered to be a very healthy diet - at least I thought it was. I was cutting down on red meats and increasing fish and poultry, replacing wheat with other grains such as ryle and spelt, eating rice, quinoa and millet. I made the effort to cook lentils and pulses. Instead of cow's cheese I would eat goat's and sheep's cheese and yoghurt. I was taking plenty of supplements, as well as digestive enzymes. Yet despite all this I still struggled with my weight and had trouble with my immune system during the winter."
"Then one day I came across a paragraph on 'Blood Type and Diet' in Dr Ralph Golan's book Optimal Wellness. This very briefly described Peter D'Adamo's work, and to me it sounded right. Being an O, something deep down in me had always resisted becoming a vegetarian. I just instinctively knew that I needed animal protein."
"I started putting into practice the techniques of a blood type diet and I moved onto a higher level of health. Being blood type O I had permission to eat meat, which I love. Unfortunately I had to give up cheese (which is particularly difficult when you live in France). Os can only have a small amount of goat's and sheep's cheese (I was still eating too much). grains are to be avoided and I cat attest to that. Whenever I was tempted to eat normal bread or even too much spelt bread, I immediately felt the difference - a heaviness set in and I put on weight. that was when I first started the diet - I now know what to do to feel good, be healthy and lean. If I am tempted all I need to do is remind myself of how good I feel and, more often than not, following the blood type diet takes precedence over the indulgence. Although it took a little time to adjust to some of the changes, I now positively enjoy the many beneficial foods that are suitable for my blood type."
