I thought so, I admit I did not read thru much of it, but we are speaking different schools of thought, but plant based diets have more extensive research.
I didn't read the info in your link due to the fact it is
12 years old, it was written by a Naturopathic physician I can't follow dated info with the technologies available for the current trends.
But each of us must follow what we believe is right for themselves.

Ok, you got my curiosity, I did a little research and found this.
Dr. Michael Klaper challenged the blood type theory, stating;
"Eat Right For Your Type 1996 by Peter J. D'Adamo, N. D. The book's basic premise - that Type O's are the dominant, hunter-caveman type that require meat in the diet.
Yet, no such studies are cited or presented.
In my opinion, D'Adamo has spun an evolutionary fairy tale that leaves many unanswered questions. What exactly is he proposing happened to Type O hunter-gatherers"

Joel Fuhrman MD answered this question nicely in his book "Eat To Live." Statistically, blood type has no impact on dietary choices. EVERYONE should eat a HEALTHY vegan diet! ...he has done extensive research into the scientific literature on the connection between blood type and diet and there is very little scientific validity to these claims.
D'Adamo does not supply scientific references to back up any of his claims, Dr. Fuhrman searched
Medline for all articles on blood type and diet done in the past 30 years, as well as research on lectins and he read more than 200 scientific articles on the subject of ABO blood types, diet and disease. D'Adamo's book mixes some interesting factual information with a lot of far-fetched assertions that have no scientific basis in fact. He makes many unscientific and incorrect claims that show a poor understanding of basic human physiology.
