5.0 out of 5 stars Forget everything you thought you knew., June 2, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bloodtypes, Bodytypes and You (Hardcover)

Forget everything you thought you knew about "doing the right thing for your body" and read this book. I have struggled with digestive disorders and food battles for the past 20 years. I dreaded eating meals because I never knew how I was going to feel afterwards. (bloated, headache, hungry, sleepy) I thought I was eating healthy with shredded wheat for breakfast and fresh baked pumpernickel/cucumber sandwiches for lunch... the "list of foods to avoid" section of my blood type was invaluable. Two days after eating from my beneficial food list and avoiding the "avoid list",which included shredded wheat and pumpernickel bread! I dropped five pounds, no bloating, nausea and my energy level has soared. if you are having a struggle with nutrition, weight or food issues... you'll be pleased with the contents of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bloodtypes, Bodytypes, and YOU, March 31, 2001

By 

Lubenor (Lansing, Michigan) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bloodtypes, Bodytypes and You (Hardcover)

GREAT! GREAT! GREAT! I have been one of those people who has tried and read every diet plan from soups to nuts but this book is in a league of its own. I felt defeated and thought there was no hope for me to loose those extra 10 pounds by dieting until I started eating by my blood type. One of the best parts about this book is it has soooo many varieties of food for my blood type all laid out. The family meal planning works great because my husband is an O blood and I am an A. Finally I am not wasting my time exercising because now I know what my body type is and am following the 90-day program in the book. This book is like my own personally customized nutrition and exercise manual.

5.0 out of 5 stars No more DIETS! Just an easy lifestyle change!, January 16, 2007

This review is from: Blood Types, Body Types and You (Paperback)

I have been overweight (about 50 pounds) since the birth of my two sons. I have tried everything! Some things worked but I would always gain it all back and then some....that was Until I found this book!
It is not a strict diet but instead a lifestyle change. It is so much easier than a diet and is something you can do for life and not feel like you are sacrificing.
You eat the foods that "go" with your blood type and don't eat the foods that don't! It is that simple. AND the "Don't Eat" food list is very small compared to what you CAN eat.
It is fabulous. I have been on it for two weeks and have lost 8+ pounds!
GOTTA GET IT!
***UPDATE**** been on it for a month now and have lost 15 pounds and feel fabulous! It will clear up any bowel problems you have (diarhea, constipation, gas, bloating) which is a huge plus.
