Thanks, but I still wonder: Who is Sharyl Owen? Is she a scientist? Student? Who does she work for? Who pays for her website? Does she get funding from industry?

Everything on her website seems scientific, but the same can be said about D'Amato's book, "Eat Right 4 Your Blood Type". At the end of his book in appendix C, he has a long list of references. Among them are papers he had published. I'm not sure what those papers prove, but I'm not sure what Owen's papers prove either.

So I wonder: Who is the pure scam, D'Adamo or the Owen Foundation?

We are at a big disadvantage because we can't gain access to scientific papers published in journals. A while back I called the Lady Lake library to see if I could get some journal papers. Essentially, I was told I couldn't. You have to be a doctor to gain access, and you would have to go to a medical library.
