Title: Do "Blood Group Diets" work?
Post by: Natisha Singh on 16/04/2009 01:30:02

Natisha Singh  asked the Naked Scientists:
   
Hi Chris.

Please can you answer this for me. I know someone who has psoriasis, and he is now eating according to his blood group. He has very few and limited food that he is allowed to eat. Will eating according to your blood group make a difference and is there any proof that this diet helps?

Many thanks

Natisha

What do you think?

It appears to be 3 out of four if you believe this (http://weightloss.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dadamo.com%2F). Only read the first paragraph, the rest is bs.

And this (http://weightloss.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ivillage.com%2Fdiet%2Ffeatures%2Fdietsaz%2Farticles%2F0%2C6883%2C42028-1%2C00.html%3FIN2id2%3D962060051.002319%26ucsID%3D9620609680258792062733108) gives you both sides.

A woman at my mum's work tried it.  My mum siad that she said it worked great.  She had been trying heaps of other diets before that too that she had said didn't work.
Mum told dad that he should try it.  He said that he thought it was a load of BS.  I've seen a few things on the news not that long ago with people claining that it works too.
