The
2003 IfHI Conference 'A Century of Blood Group Science' was
attended by over 250 professional and laypeople, from over six
continents and seventeen countries.

|
| The
curriculum was varied, in-depth and fascinating. Dr. D'Adamo
taught four master classes containing a huge amount of new
information. |

I was quite impressed with the attendance and the long distances people traveled to attend the conference. I want to understand the material much better so I can help more people and certainly plan on attending the next event in 2005.
You and your staff did a nice job!!!
Sincerely yours,

| Though some people were shaken up by the questions on the test, I was not. I know I did not do well, but I took the challenge, and am proud to have done so. It is not as if I will not learn this material in my own time. I have been a torch bearer for this diet, and I will contiue to be so! Even if I did not pass the test, I am better educated, as well as on fire to carry the mesage of the diet into the future.Everyting so wonderful! I am afraid the next confrenece will be so big, it can never again be so intimate. I will cherish the memories of this one for the rest of my life! Will see you for certain in 2005, and hopefully before
that.

| An
email to thank you for the extraordinary conference you
organized! I have
been to quite a few over the last ten years of practice and
this one, by far, surpassed all expectations (and that is not
even counting the food which was way ‘over the top’!).
I returned totally inspired by the vision of IfHI and
the place that blood type science has in truly honoring our
naturopathic precepts of treating cause and individualizing
care to the whole person. Thanks again!
Warm
regards,
David
A. Bove, N.D.

You really did
a good job. I appreciated everything during the conference.
However, time was too short to absorb and digest everything.
I agree what Dr. D said that we should have a week.
