eDiets.com introduced the Blood Type Diet; a customized online nutrition plan developed with Peter J. D’Adamo, ND, a doctor of naturopathy, based upon his New York Times best-selling book, “Eat Right 4 Your Type.” Continuing its mission to provide all dieters with a variety of options to help them find the plan that is right for them to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight, eDiets.com’s newest offering differentiates itself from the company’s 20 other plan offerings by considering the interaction of food with body chemistry.

According to “Eat Right 4 Your Type,” an individual’s blood type influences their recommended meal plan, which consists of foods D’Adamo recommends as beneficial for each blood type. Members of the Blood Type Diet plan available through eDiets.com can use this program to lose weight, maintain their current weight, and may combine the plan with exercise to improve overall physical well-being.

“The key to optimal health lies in our genetic makeup, and I believe it’s the best way to determine what foods to eat and avoid,” said Peter J. D’Adamo, ND, founder and author of “Eat Right 4 Your Type” on which the online eDiets.com plan is directly based. “The Blood Type Diet is a program that many have followed by referencing my book, but now, with eDiets.com, this plan is personalized. eDiets.com’s user-friendly Web site also provides members of the online plan with access to peer support, expert guidance, and credible information resources. I’m thrilled to partner with this established eHealth category leader.”

The Blood Type Diet by D’Adamo helps eDiets.com members eat foods that are uniquely beneficial for their particular blood type. After completing an online profile that gathers information on blood type, weight goals, height, and current activity level, each member is issued a highly customized 7-day meal plan, updated weekly, reflecting those foods that will provide the most benefits for their specific blood type. The weekly meal plans are flexible, and each offers relevant food item substitutions. As with all meal plans at eDiets.com, the weekly menu comes complete with recipes and a corresponding print-friendly grocery shopping list. In addition, each member’s plan includes fitness recommendations, as the plan recognizes exercise as an important component of weight management.

“The introduction of the Blood Type Diet at eDiets.com represents a unique addition to our roster of healthy living program options, which includes many of the industry’s leading brands,” said David Humble, CEO of eDiets.com. “This program’s design of complementing one’s body chemistry makes it an important addition to our network of personalized programs and, as with all solutions at eDiets.com, we’ve further optimized the plan with our robust community support network. All combined, it’s a winning combination.”
