I like this part:

<<These theories are not supported by scientific literature and the research has not been confirmed anywhere else.>>

ie. there has been no attempt to confirm or deny the findings.

<<What did I think of this product? Nothing, there is no way that I would even think of following such rubbish.>>

ie. since it is novel, it is false... in other words, the only PROVEN rubbish is the above statement... since he refutes with no evidence what so ever.

<<A little bit of time spent studying a biology book, or a human physiology text book, would dismiss the idea that blood type could specify dietary requirements.>>

That is completely ridiculous... the book is getting tons of attention in the scientific community...why aren't THEY dismissing it.... this guy is clearly an idiot.

<<There is absolutely no scientific studies done to support this premise.>>

Yea, he said that... if it's not proven it's false... which of course a completely false statement and in fact is in itself completely unscientific.

Too funny... typical egghead pseudo scientific type who make the absolute WRONG conclusion:

"Since there is no 'science to back it up' it must be false."

Using that assumption no scientific discovery would ever get tested again and become validated. What a moron.

Then the guy simply states falacious material:

<<Have you ever wondered who the people are who come up with these obscure diets? My friend actually went on this diet where she had to eat the right food for her blood type. Since she is an O+, she was told to stay away from proteins because supposedly her body was not made to synthesize protein.>>

Absolutely the opposite of what the book states! O's need meat according to the book! Ever wonder where these obscure people come from critiqiing a book they havent read or a topic they know nothing about? LOL, or how about this:

<<Second of all, this diet was so restrictive that she might as well have have starved herself and gotten better results.>>

ROFLAMO!! Absolutely wrong... it's a very broad diet! Who is this moron? And when in doubt just throw in stuff that's totally irrelevant:

<<Third of all, diets don't work unless you are on them for the rest of your life!>>

Here's the guys website for anyone who cares:
