| bjimenez's Full Review: Eat Right 4 Your Type Diet |
This book is a very hot topic right now. Some say it's the greatest thing since, well, sliced bread, yet, there are others who think it's just another silly, overpriced, under-researched diet book.
I fall into the second category.
I did not buy a copy of this book, choosing, instead, to borrow my older brother's copy. Now, first I must freely admit I was a bit confused, because at birth I had a rare RH factor problem, and required a complete blood transfusion. So. Do I eat right for the type I was born, or the type I became?
Well, I read both, and, quite honestly, neither category fit me. At all.
This is just another diet book attempt to create controversy, and solicit money.
I firmly believe that basically any diet will work, if you stick to it. However, why it works, and how healthy it is, is an entirely different question.
This diet does not appear to be medically or scientifically proven and researched, if it is, I could not find adequate proof to this effect.
The foods listed overlap, and the definitions of the different types are vague, and blurry.
Reminds one of a fortune teller who is trying to guess what you want to hear.
If you need to lose weight, any program is better than none, unless the one you chose causes more harm to your body than it does good.
Research the basis behind this program, and then, after finding the facts, decide if this is the program for you.
Me, personally, I think I'll find another diet. One for the strawberry sundae type, I think.
