BACKGROUND
Have you ever felt that your body's natural wiring is stopping you from obtaining your weight loss goals? Many people share this very common problem. The Genotype Diet calculates the way your body reacts to dieting and then creates a custom plan to counteract your body's natural tendencies. Created by Dr. Peter D'Adamo, this completely custom program will help you resist your body's negative predispositions and drop the pounds.
By taking a few measurements of your body, all outlined in the book, you can determine how your genetic code places you into one of six lifestyle groups. Things like thumbprint, blood type and torso length vs. leg length are all signs of your genetic code.
He says research has found that 70% of your genes are changeable because they are influenced so heavily by your environment. "It's possible, all experts in complete agreement, the single biggest influence environmentally on gene expression is diet. Here we have an entirely new way of understanding how supplements work, an entirely different way of looking at food, and what it's doing with the expression on your genes," said Dr. D'Adamo during an interview with DietsInReview.com.

I was sad to give up some foods but the foods i craved were the foods i was allergic to. just cuz you like them dosent mean your body does. BUY IT! SERIOUSLY! no one is the same. we were born either Hunters, Gatheres, Teachers, Explorers, Warriors, or Nomads just like in early civilization.
