Eat according to your blood type?

I was in a health food store the other day and they had books in there about eating according to your blood type.  I am type O blood so I sort of glanced through the book.  It seems that type O blood needs more meat and green vegetables than grains and even some fruits.  It breaks down which foods (by category) are most beneficial, neutral and which ones you should avoid.

According to this book by Dr. Peter J. D’Adamo, if you eat according to your blood type, you will be healthier, feel better and live longer.  Well since Joe and I both have a bit of high cholesterol, I bought the small book you can take with you to the grocery store and will probably end up getting the full size book to learn even more about this type of diet.

I’m always on the lookout for something to help  be healthier and stay that way and I really don’t think it would hurt to at least give it a try and see if this doctor is a quack or if he’s on to something.  I’ll keep you posted on how it goes.
