I don't have the technical expertise you do about lectins and such; but it
seems (my take on his take?) that basically, the difference between one
blood type and another isn't that big a deal.  Whatever type you are, you
still run a higher risk of getting the "diseases of civilization" if you
eat non-paleo foods.  Types other than O may have somewhat less risk for
some foods, but they're not home free.

But I don't have many facts to back this up (Ray's note didn't say much
beyond what I quoted).  Those of you who have read D'Adamo's book, got
anything to add?
