So I have just been reading about blood group diets! Has anyone tried this before?

Thoughts please

It's just a scam.

It's been completely debunked.

Don't bother with it. It places unnecessary restrictions for no valid reason at all.

Mine says I'm supposed to do well with dairy, and given all the "humans aren't meant to eat dairy" threads lately I kind of like that.

On the other hand, it says I shouldn't eat chicken, which seems odd. I ate lots of chicken when losing weight and it didn't seem to hurt.

It also makes no logical sense if you think about it. Why would blood type have anything to do with diet?

My thoughts - Don't waste any more time reading about it! Like already mentioned, there is no scientific basis for the diet...

It's bunk.

It suggests that I eat a low carb type diet.

I don't do well on low carb. :laugh:

There are many such articles. Just google "blood type diet debunked" and they'll pop up.

Pseudoscience. Here's the truth: If you're overweight, you're eating more than you need to.

Yes I've tried it - when it first came out in the 90's. I soon worked out that it wasn't logical or sensible back then, and my opinion hasn't changed.

My God! Is this coming back around like that freaking grapefruit diet? Don't buy it.

Yup, I'm afraid it is complete poop.
