5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT....I feel so much better!, March 25, 2006

This review is from: Allergies : Fight Them with the Blood Type Diet (Eat Right for Your Type) (Hardcover)

I cannot believe what a difference this book has made in my life. I did not realize how tired I was until I began following the guidance of this book in avoiding certain foods and including others in my diet. Within a week I was feeling better. I had no idea how tired and sluggish I had been--I have so much more energy now, particularly in the evenings when I was usually tired after coming home from work. I highly recommend that you try this book. It's easy to read and well worth the time and money.

While a lot of the material in this book is necessarily duplicated from other books published by D'Adamo in case the reader starts with this book, the real medical assistance offered has been very helpful to me - teaching me to manage my allergies proactively!

...i've had some issues with it personally. this theory was introduced to me by a health care provider, and my profile as a blood type a seemed to fit me well. during a recent pregnancy, i was plagued with terrible allergies, and my options were limited in terms of medications. i clung to this book and followed it as best i could. for the first few days my allergies improved, so i tried following it to a tee. suddenly, the allergies came back, and i knew that i was eating something that was making them worse. i gave up and returned to a regular diet. after my pregnancy i was tested for allergies, and in addition to my environmental allergies, i am allergic to soy and peanuts, two of the foods that were "highly beneficial" to me. in addition, i had sensitivities to a plethora of other foods on my "blood type a" food list. i may be unique in experiencing this, so i don't want to throw anyone off if this works for you, i just want to let you know about my experience. good luck to you!
