I don't know about the lecithins but there are a lot of people including

Dr. s (author of The Milk Book quoted often in NT) who believe the

Eat Right For Your Type is complete hogwash. I can't tell your husband what

to do but I am suggesting that he study the subject more before trying to

" eat right for his type. " Just my opinion....

thanks, , Have you read Wolcott's The Metabolic Typing

Diet? If you haven't, lots of references to Price and

Fallon...questionnaire to determine which way your personal dietary

heritage is geared. He also mentions er4yt, but suggests that blood

type takes a back seat to the other homoestatic systems in the body

that determine your body's reaction to food.
