The Dr. Rob Show - Healthy Weight Loss Podcast show

Summary: In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the recent passing of Steve Jobs and his contributions to the world through his work at Apple and Pixar.   Dr. Rob also talks about his experience of working with executives from both Disney and Pixar when he was practicing in Los Angeles.  Dr. Rob was the director of a blood type diet based program, which was effective for weight loss, but also produced excellent results for a wide variety of other inflammatory based conditions and diseases.   The blood type diet approach was popularized by Dr. Peter D'Adamo and his best selling book, Eat Right For Your Type.   Using blood type is a simple way to determine an immunologically friendly, or an anti-inflammatory diet for an individual.  The majority of the population falls into two categories.  Approximately 35- 40% are A+ blood type and about 35-40% of the population are O+ blood type.  People with the A+ blood type tend to eat more of a plant based diet, whereas people with the O+ blood type tend to eat more of an animal protein based diet.  Interestingly,  neither type tolerates wheat or dairy products very well.  This means that 80% of the population should not consume wheat and dairy products on a regular basis.  Many people, even without knowing their blood type tend to consume a diet consistent with the characteristics of their actual blood type.   People who are A+, tend not like much animal protein and are commonly vegetarian or vegans.  People who are O+ like protein and do very well with protein.   The blood type approach makes the argument that their is not a "perfect" diet for everyone.
