Diet Typing Systems – The Background

To fully understand what “Typing” is all about, we need to go back and understand the history that leads us to the Diet Typing System.

It has always been confusing to scientists, doctors as well as patients and clients as to why some of us do well eating a particular way while others do badly eating the same diet. Each year we are bombarded with new “trendy” diets: The Zone, The Mediterranean, Vegetarian, Vegan, Atkins, Paleo, and Ketogenics, just to name a few.

Each one works for about 10%-20% of the population. I would venture to say that each author of the diets listed above probably did well on their particular diet, and therefore, assumed that everyone would.

Books & Theory’s Came On The Scene

Then books and theory’s regarding biochemistry and individual diet plans began to immerge: Nutrition and Your Mind: The Psychochemical Response by George Watson, Ph.D.; BioBalance, by Rudolf Wiley Ph.D., Metabolic Typing Diet by William Wolcott; The Nutrition Solution by Harold Kristal, D.D.S., as well as the works of Francis M. Pottenger, M.D. and William Kelly D.D.S. Each of these books and theories was groundbreaking.

This opened up a whole new way of looking at our dietary needs. What worked for one did not necessarily work for another: Biochemical individuality was coined by Dr. Roger Williams proved to be a game-changer. However, figuring this out proved to be very confusing. It was true that there can be no one diet that is appropriate for everyone, and “One man’s food is another man’s poison”. Without knowing your Diet Type, attempting to follow a particular diet becomes a hit or miss, a matter of chance, or simply, unpredictable.

Something Was Missing

Finding out what food and in what ratio for each person was essential for health but there was something missing. Although this identified and discovered the right ratios of proteins, fats and carbohydrates along with the type of each of these macronutrients, this did not show you the foods to restrict or avoid or even add to your diet for specific health conditions.

Health conditions such as anxiety, type two diabetes, heart disease, thyroid disorders, psoriasis, are a few that need to restrict or eliminate certain foods as well as incorporating certain foods that will help in order to heal these imbalances.

Enter Diet Typing Systems

This is where Diet Typing Systems was developed. There is no other system that has created a formula that will allow each person to individually know what to eat according to their type and what to avoid or restrict as well as what to add to their diet to heal any imbalance they may have.

With this easy affordable online test the results are immediate and with the other documents included it becomes very easy to follow!
