July
is Here! |

It’s been a no-spring kind of year, rainy and cold. Hopefully, July will bring with it warmer weather, sunshine, and a more relaxed way of living. Summer is supposed to be the easy time of the year. Family visits, barbecues, swimming, gardening, out on the water, vacations. It’s that psychological “summer break” that we have all been trained for since we first went off to school. Unfortunately, as adults, there is no real “summer break,” particularly this year, as we are all working harder to maintain our businesses and our livelihoods. However, it is important to claim the time emotionally, even if the work schedules don’t permit. We are not trained to recreate, and for many of us it is challenging to leave the work pressures behind and follow a different beat. As I was thinking about this, I was reminded of an earlier blog I wrote about a wonderful music group that celebrates amateurism and expression over perfection and performance: “Got lucky yesterday. Found a site that had the entire LP of the 1974 classic The Portsmouth Sinfonia Plays The Popular Classics available as a download. I certainly don’t support intellectual property theft but this album has never made it to CD and I think the original record label is now extinct. The Portsmouth Sinfonia is the ultimate ode to amateurism: Take a bunch of English art school students --who either cannot play a musical instrument or are willing to play one they are unfamiliar with-- and put them into an orchestra. The only rules being that you had to come to rehearsal and you could not purposely play the wrong notes. What resulted were renditions of the popular classics (Peer Gynt Suite, The Blue Danube Waltz, The William Tell Overture, etc) in which the inexperience and lack of talent produces a series of acoustic near-misses that collect into this cloud-like approximation of what the proper pitch and notes should sound like. Popular classics were selected on purpose since everyone in the orchestra would know the music and could at least aspire to what the piece should resemble--or at the very minimum whether they should be sounding higher or lower pitched notes. Here is their rendition of Blue Danube Waltz, Op. 314 (Johann Strauss). It’s heady stuff and lighthearted. Perfect summer listening. For me, I am going to ramp up the speakers as I putter around rebuilding my 1971 VW Camper. It’s a total work-in-progress, which is what I enjoy the most about it. Here’s a shot of my progress so far… Enjoy, Peter |

The rain and wind could not drown the excitement as the participants of IfHI 2009 arrived at The Dolce Conference Center in Norwalk, CT on Friday, June 5. After the 130 attendees checked in and explored the beautiful facility, Dr. D’Adamo kicked off the conference with a welcoming address, followed by a dinner of blood type friendly foods. Saturday began with a gentle stretching and yoga class led by Amy Irish. After breakfast the work began. Dr. D’Adamo lectured throughout the day, explaining the science of individuality with clarity and injecting his own unique style into his teachings. Later in the day, Dr. Tom Greenfield led a breakout session for IfHI Masters and also led a certification review for those testing for the IfHI Masters certification test, while Dr. D’Adamo conducted the Fellows Review. The skies brightened just in time for a cocktail reception on the patio of the Dolce. IfHI members mingled and enjoyed more fabulous blood type friendly foods courtesy of Chef Ralph Croteau. Live music by the band, TrippyPhonics, (featuring NAP’s own Wendy Simmons-Taylor on guitar and vocals) was enjoyed by all and by the end of the evening, more than a few people were showing off their dance moves! The weekend wrapped up on Sunday morning with stretches and breathing exercises led by Martha D’Adamo, a delicious breakfast buffet featuring spelt pancakes, and inspirational closing words by Dr. D’Adamo. After the conference ended, many attendees took a road trip to visit the new D'Adamo Personalized Nutrition™ store and tour The D’Adamo Clinic in Wilton, Connecticut. Enjoy the pictures which highlight the conference and we look forward to seeing you at IfHI in 2011! |

Wouldn’t it be great to make a little extra money during these difficult economic times? We’ve found a way to do this by doing what you are already doing – sharing with others about the Blood Type Diet and the NAP supplements! The new and vastly improved ShareRight program allows you to earn commissions on product sales generated by all your friends and family members who you refer. The program is internet based, and is designed to allow us (and you!) to track sales generated by those you refer. At the end of the month, you’ll get to see a report that outlines the sales and generates a commission payment of 20%! (So, do the math….Uncle Joe buys $100 dollars of products, and you earn $20. It’s a great way to let our supplements “supplement” your income, particularly during this uncertain economic times.) It’s also a great way for us to say thank you for your dedication and commitment to sharing your experiences with the work of Dr. Peter D’Adamo and the Blood Type and GenoType diets.
