A handy pocket reference for blood type B diets. 
by .. A. Ryan (Westminster, CA USA)
So now that you've read Eat Right For Your Type and are familiar with the basic theories behind the blood type diets, you need a list that you can grab and take with you on those grocery shopping trips or for those dinners out where you may find menu items that you can't quite remember as either Recommended, Neutral, or Avoid. This is one of those pocket references that was made to be convenient for these situations if you happen to be a type B like most of my family.
(If you haven't read the abovementioned book first, you should. It explains in detail the hows and whys of eating according to one's blood type - O, A, B, or AB - instead of the dictates of popular trends. Foods are divided into three lists for each blood type: Highly Recommended (foods that have some great benefit or another and act almost as medicine in your system), Neutral (basics that are neither highly beneficial nor bad), or Avoid (foods that you should avoid, either because they have a bad effect on your blood type's metabolism, immune system, digestion, etc). But back to the review...)
The format of this list book is divided into convenient chapters that each represent a food group, such as Ch.1, Meats and Poultry, Ch. 2, Seafood, Ch.3, Eggs and Dairy, Ch.4, Fats and Oils, and so on until we have categorized every type of common edible into 14 sections altogether. Each chapter also has a brief introductory essay explaining a few highlights of the lists that follow, for instance, why certain healthy veggies such as tomatoes ended up on the Avoid list for type Bs and why Pineapple is on the Highly Recommended list. Most of the selections are not explained in detail however, so the reader must take these recommendations on faith. Also included are chapters on supplementation and medical strategies utilizing these lists.
Now several years have passed since the original publication of ERFYT and I have noticed when comparing the lists in it verses the lists in this more recent pocket reference that there are several discrepancies. For instance, salmon was a Neutral fish in ERFYT but it now ranked as Highly Beneficial. That could very well be because of the research that has been done after ERFYT which uncovered new benefits of salmon that were unknown before; I suspect several of these improved rankings have a similar explanation There are more examples from each chapter that I could go into. I can only trust that these changes are indeed the results of further research and not publication mistakes.
Bottom line, this is a very convenient reference to those of us who may have lent our copy of ERFYT to a friend after discovering the great personal freedom and physical well-being that comes with aligning one's diet with blood type. Get this one if you're a type B; otherwise get the one that matches your blood type.

The pocket version of the diet -- for quick reference by .. Heather (Boynton Beach, FL USA)
After carrying around photocopied pages of blood type B's lists from "Eat Right for Your Type" in my purse for several years, I was thrilled to stumble across this little version! I've successfully followed this diet fairly strictly since January 1998, and I know it has helped mitigate my multiple sclerosis. I was initially attempting to lose a couple pounds, but instead my achy knees suddenly became completely better, the dry skin on my hands healed, and my back stopped aching. I didn't even initially attribute those events to the diet, so I know it wasn't a "placebo effect" sort of thing!
I'm thrilled to carry this pocket version of the diet in my purse now (along with my Bible!), so I can refer to it in restaurants instead of straggly old photocopies!
One of the best "Health" books I ever purchased by .. Libress (Snellville, GA)
I like this book because even though it's not an exact science, so to speak, it was worth purchasing because I had tried everything else for being healthy. This actually has some merit as my mother followed this book guidelines of food choices to a T and lost about 40 pounds so I decided to try it. I've lost 29 pounds in just over 2 months but have kind of plateaued. I was not exercising at the time because i wanted to see food changes first and wanted to know if eating healthier really affected ones weight, not just health in general. Granted, this may not work for skeptics because they are usually looking for a reason to fail instead of a reason to succeed.
Type B by .. S. Funmaker (Wisconsin)
If you are of this belief (i am), this is a good book. it has a quick reference and small enough to carry it in your purse when you are shopping for food. I carry mine everyday with me.
