There’s a book out there about this idea, released a few decades ago. ‘Eat Right for Your Type’, or somesuch. There really isn’t any science behind it, yet it doesn’t appear to be a harmful approach, either. But, if believing in its claims gets someone to a better, healthier place, then that might not be a bad thing. At least it might get some folks thinking about what they’re eating.

He likely did a genetic profile that showed he had a relatively high % of Neanderthal genes and assumed this gives him a proclivity for some type of diet even though that makes no sense given what we currently know. His weird thinking on race science pervades everything.
The "caveman blood type" comment is straight out of the eat your blood-type pseudo-scientific movement, which he later recommended. He's a god damn medical professional. He needs to get it together.

The hilarious thing about his claim of Neanderthal genes is that if it's true, he's not only the product of mixed race, he's the product of mixed species.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

Everyone not from sub Saharan Africa has some Neanderthal DNA though your 2% may not be for the same genes as my 2%. I suspect there were archaic human species in Africa that we haven't found in the fossil record that interbred with anatomically modern humans as well. While different looking, these archaic humans apparently could breed with modern humans based on our genetic findings, so how are they a different species?
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Soooo. What you’re saying is you’d “F” a Neanderthal, but not a Honduran?

It's type O blood, which is most people.

Now I'm wondering what the pseudo-science trend is around optometry. I'm just imagining ajax rolling his eyes at a patient trying to treat glaucoma with honey in the eyes, the first folk treatment that google gave me, while simultaneously espousing his fad diet plan (not to mention all the junk science he has probably picked up around race and genetics generally).
