A New Book from the Originator of The Blood Type Diet Focuses on Disease Prevention

by Liz
Health & Wellness / June 22, 2010

Dr. James D'Adamo burst onto the world of natural medicine in the 1970s with his revolutionary discovery of, and approach to, healing based on a person's blood type. Written in the infancy of America's modern natural-healing movement, his first book, One Man's Food ... is someone else's poison, detailed his unique individual treatment method that correlated a person's type of blood with diet, exercise, and spiritual practice. Just An Ounce of Prevention . . . Is Worth a Pound of Cure comes almost 30 years later. Raincoast’s own health-conscious publicist Danielle recently had a chance to ask Dr. D’Adamo some questions about his most recent foray into writing and his latest research on healthy eating.
 
 
1. You’ve written two successful books already, One Man’s Food…is someone else’s poison and The D’Adamo Diet, what led you to write your most recent Just An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure?
 
Further research. When I wrote my first book nobody in the world had ever done this research so I had no one to copy, also when I examined 500 to 1000 patients, I thought this was a truth, but later on as I examined many thousands of patients, I realized that changes had to be made.
 
First of all, the first book was based on 4 blood types. My second book the D’Adamo Diet was based on my discovery of sub blood groups and the implication of RH factors. My most recent book “Just an Ounce of Prevention” is a culmination of 53 years of research and development and continual discoveries into H1 and A1 which questions whether the body needs more or less protein. The third book also delves more deeply into the individuality of the person’s body as to how it should function when it’s perfectly healthy, what assets and liabilities the body came with initially.
 
I also believe that the first book was many years ago when the American public was not ready to look at natural healing. But now it’s an ideal time -- I think “Just an Ounce of Prevention” encompasses years of research refined as well as a great spiritual connection to the universe.
 
2. What is your blood type?
My blood type is A with an O sub-blood type.
 
3. For your blood type what would you eat in a typical day?
A typical breakfast for me would be
·        Papaya
·        Either Ezykiel cereal or Ezykiel toast
·        My vitamins and herbs
·        Occasionally egg-whites and/or Tofu.
 
For dinner, I would have:
·        Either a piece of fish or turkey or some nights completely vegetarian. 
Generally speaking a salad with mixed greens or asparagus, string beans, peas, boiled carrots, Swiss chard, etc.
 
4. Are there any particular foods that are recommended for all blood types?
At this point I will have to refer you to the book. Food intake depends on what’s going on in the individual person’s body. For instance, I am having papaya for breakfast, but I am not hypoglycemic or diabetic. If I were any of these, I would not be able to have papaya. The blood types, the sub blood types, RH factors and H1 determine what a person should eat when perfectly healthy. Very few people are perfectly healthy, so there is no ‘one size fits all approach’. 
 
5. What lesson do you want readers to take away from your newest book?
You need to take responsibility for your own health and realize that anything can occur when you take responsibility. You must be patient because most illnesses as you can see when you read the book have their origins in your childhood. It is important to know that this reversal is possible when you make that commitment to yourself. My book will not only provide suggestions to get you started, it can help you to stay on course and reclaim your health. It took a long time for your body to develop whatever illness you are presently suffering from. It will take time to re-establish abundant health. 

Carb swapping! No more crazy diets that don’t work!

by Danielle
January 04, 2010

We just received the new book by bestselling author Jorge Cruise called THE BELLY FAT CURE. I'm truly amazed. After reading the first few chapters and taking a look at the many recipes included, I'm hooked. Really! He suggests a very simple regime of carb swapping. The book gives you sample dishes that are not so healthy and replaces them with the good ones. In turn, hoping to make you lose 4-9 pounds every week. Try it out for yourself (if needed), but please consult your local physician before starting any new diet.

This is one of Jorge's many YouTube video on the subject. He explains that some foods have a high sugar content which is not good for your body (obviously) so he will give you delicious alternatives. 

Here's is Jorge's visit to The Today Show (Jan 4, 2010)

Jorge Cruise is the author of 3 consecutive New York Times best-selling series, with more than 5 million books in print in over 15 languages. He has appeared on Oprah, Regis and Kelly, The View, Good Morning America, the Today show, Dateline NBC, and CNN. Go to TheBellyFatCure.com to join Jorge?s free e-mail club.
