What is it? Dr Peter D'Adamo's Eat Right For Your Type book is based on the premise that different blood types have different internal chemistries, so you should eat certain foods to lose weight.

Pros: It's very specific - you have to stick to food lists - so it's good if you like following rules.

Cons: The science behind the diet is a little dubious. It's tough to follow. You might have to cut out alcohol.

Health risks: You could be eliminating foods that give you much-needed nutrients.

Does it work? It restricts calorie intake, so you should lose weight, but will you be able to stick to it?
