The kitchen companion to Eat Right For Your Type, that gives the blood typing information but with the practical application as well. I don’t think it should be followed completely, but I do think it’s worth considering when planning meals and addressing health. The science behind blood types metabolizing food differently seems solid.

What would make this book better:
- Scientific documentation (visuals at least...) of how exactly blood agglutinates to specific lectins
- how they discovered which lectins were bad and which were ok
- why some foods are "not tolerated at all" and some are only slightly tolerable
- if the author did not state that the body doesn't "produce" enough iodine. No one's body produces iodine, it's an element!

Folks who like to cook and have the time.
While it supports the authors respect and reverence for food, and the sort of mindfulness that is encouraged in Eat Right 4 Your Type, the recipes in this book take forever to make. Everything I have cooked is unique and delicious, but the prep is always long and complicated, and the cook times so far are never under an hour. Every dish I've made has taken a whole day or evening, especially if I have to do it all myself. We've relegated this one to the "as a pair, special occasion" sec...more
Contains some useful recipes to correspond with your blood type diet. Some of the recipes are too obscure to be useful though.
Great book for awesome recipes relating to your blood type. A must read after Eat Right 4 Your Type!
I'm experimenting now with the concept of choosing foods based on bloodtype. So far I'm happy with the results. I'm willing to share the Eat Right 4 Your Type with anyone interested.
More recipes to go along with Eat Right 4 Your Type.
The writing is quite compelling and I want to believe, but the system doesn't seem to work for me at all.
I figured I may as well learn how to cook while I'm at it... MOVE OVER MICHAEL, I'M GONNA COOK!!
