From the Back Cover
'Cooking Without' is not only a collection of delicious and simple recipes but is also a book about health: how to gain it and how to keep it. By giving the body a sufficient amount of the nutrients it needs, it has the best opportunity to heal itself and stay well.
The recipes in 'Cooking Without' obtain their flavour from ingredients which are health promoting rather than from high levels of salt, fat or sugar. Ingredients such as wheat, dairy products and yeast, which cause many individuals to have health problems, have also been excluded. These foods, which are often linked to health disorders such as candida and irritable bowel syndrome, can also be underlying factor in more serious health problems.
The book encourages you to build health by eating enough of the right kind of food at regular intervals. The result is a way of eating that encourages the body to produce extra energy which can then be used for elimination, healing and weight control.
Barbara Cousins is a nutritional therapist who has been in practice for the last 14 years. 'Cooking Without' was written for her clients and was subsequently self-published. It has achieved a phenomenal success and has helped thousands enjoy better health and a better life.

Safe desserts at last,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking Without (Paperback)
Having an allergy to dairy products & eggs, pretty much eliminates the pleasures of cakes, puddings & desserts. When I bought this book, I was hoping for recipes to satisfy my sweet tooth & am pleased to say I haven't been disappointed. Although the book eliminates use of sugar, I find it is ok to add your own quantities if your body is agreable to this, & therefore giving you a delicious, safe dessert just as I used to enjoy. Aside of the desserts which are easy to make & include things like apple pie & custard, strawberry & banana ice-cream & mince pies, there are also some good main course recipes.Because the author is encouraging healthy eating the recipes are very selective in the ingrediants used & I found the recipes to be very natural tasting, which can at first seem strange as the palette has to adjust to the new pure & wholesome flavours.The main courses concentrate on 2 meats: chicken & lamb. Unfortunately for me I have an allergy to chicken, but on the brighter side I have successfully replaced other meats for the chicken & the recipes have worked well. So for those of us with certain food allergies I would say this book is a good helping hand to menu planning. The author often explains where certain ingrediants may be exchanged for others hence allowing a dish for many of us that would normally have to avoid it. The menus can either be taken strictly as written & as the writer explains, this will promote improved health & energy. You would have to be very strict with yourself however, & probably adjust your eating habits in a big way. Or if like me you have certain allergies & just want to try & replace certain foods which you miss (ie puds') then this book will work for you too. The recipes are very easy to follow & most of the ingrediants are readily available. Although there are passages written which relate to Candida, Food Allergies, & ME, they are by no means in-depth, but merely there to explain how the diet can contribute to such conditions. An outline is also given about the foods which she has chosen to eliminate from the recipes, which helps us to understand why we should make these sacrifices! Overall, I am pleased I have this cook book in my kitchen.

Lifesaver!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking Without (Paperback)
I have recently had a food intolerance test and am Dairy, Wheat and Yeast intolerant. I searched for recipe books which encompassed all three and thankfully found this book. I enjoy food and am so pleased to have found it. It has great ideas and lots of varied recipes which even my husband loves. I feel so much better already and I have even bought her other 2 books and they equally brilliant. Happy cooking!

The best cook book I have,
By
This review is from: Cooking Without (Paperback)
This book is great for varied, healthy and flavoursome eating. I suffer with a severe wheat intolerance and find it difficult to find recipes that exclude wheat and are low fat. I cannot understand why someone has posted a review stating the food is bland. The food tastes great but maybe not if one's palette is used to highly processed, artificially flavoured food.
I would highly recommend this for anyone that wants to eat healthy but struggles with ideas for recipes.
