Fitzgerald believes his offseason decision to begin the Genotype diet, a concept based on cutting out certain foods depending on an individual's blood type, will prolong his career.

Holy crap, that is a bogus diet.

Weird. I've never heard of this one until today.

So, why has Peter’s book become one of the best selling diet books in the past two decades? Because it works – but only for about 44-62% of the people who adopt it. Remember that for blood type O, Peter advocates a high meat, low carbohydrate "hunter" diet; with virtually no wheat, few grains or legumes and limited dairy products. If we look at the frequencies of the four major blood types for the entire world population, blood type O is by far the most frequently occurring version. It is found in 62% of all the world’s people, followed by A (21%), B (16%) and AB (1-3%)6. In the United States, the four blood type frequencies are O (44%), A (42%), B (10%) and AB (4%)7. So you can see that Peter has essentially advocated a diet similar to the Paleo Diet for between 44 and 62% of his readers. Quite simply, Peter’s diet works for about 44 to 62% of the people who adopt it – not because of their blood type, but because it emulates the same diet that natural selection has designed for us all.

Seriously a hunter diet? Not in America if people don't exercise.

I'm hoping the diet recommendations for my blood type include large quanities of Cheez-its, Reeces Pieces and Rocky Road ice cream since that's what it consists of most of the time



Edit: lots of PBJ samiches

The "science" behind it is bogus.

It works for some, not because of blood types, but:

D’Adamo advises the avoidance of wheat to O, A, and B blood types. Collectively, these comprise 96% of all people in the U.S.. Therefore, most people who read the book will get advice to avoid wheat, and they may try it. This alone will improve health for some people who are wheat sensitive.


Besides this, most people adopting the blood type diet will simply make general improvements to their diets, like reducing sugar intake, eating less processed and more unprocessed foods. D’Adamo suggests these steps to all blood types. The general steps will help most people feel significantly better and perhaps lose some body fat.

The diet is total horsepucky. Your blood type has absolutely NOTHING to do with how you metabolize food.
