In Eat Right For Your Type, that's Your Blood Type Diet, author Dr D'Admao matches your blood type to certain dietary recommendations. If you are blood type 'B' you have a different set of characteristics to people who are Type 'O' or Type 'A' and the Blood Type Diet tells you how each blood type is susceptible to different diseases; should eat different foods and should exercise in different ways.

The Blood Type 'O' Diet ...
Eat meat (high protein, low carbohydrate). Cut out wheat and most other grains. Engage in vigorous aerobic exercise. Your risk factors for ulcers and inflammatory diseases such as arthritis increase if you eat incorrectly for your type.

The Blood Type 'A' Diet ...
You should be largely vegetarian (eating a high carbohydrate, low fat diet). Engage in gentle exercise such as yoga or golf and meditate to deal with stress. Your risk factors for cancer and heart disease increase if you eat incorrectly.

The Blood Type 'B' diet ...
You should have the most varied diet of all the blood types, one including meat; yours is the only blood type that does well with dairy products. Engage in exercise such as moderate swimming or walking. Your risk for slow-growing viruses that attack the nervous system increases if you eat incorrectly for your type.

The 'AB' Blood Type Diet ...
You have most of the benefits and intolerances of types A and B, so most foods which are recommended for either type A or B will also work for you. Engage in calming exercises and relaxation techniques. You have the friendliest immune system.

The Japanese believe in Your Blood Type Diet and that your blood type also defines your personality. Being asked for a blood sample at job interviews is a regular thing in Japan.
