Excellent resource for going gluten-free! 29 May 2004
By C. Wong - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book provides readers with an excellent overview of how to live a gluten-free life. It covers the basics of digestion and why certain people need to go gluten-free, how to remove wheat and gluten from the diet, and the emotional issues involved with a diet change. Additionally, it covers how to deal with eating out, what you CAN eat, shopping, menu planning, travel tips, etc. It also deals with how to talk to friends, family and strangers about the diet. Recipes, index and a 26-page resource directory are included. The author is an expert on the subject and the founder of R.O.C.K. (Raising Our Celiac Kids), a support group for families with celiac disease.

A MUST HAVE 26 Feb 2004
By Karen Fine - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a must have book for parents of Celiac kids. It is the most up-to-date book on the market and includes a CURRENT list of approved foods/additives. That's very helpful if you have a dietician like mine who gave me an outdate list from 2001. Much has changed. For example, some vinegars are okay. Which means some mustards and ketchups etc are okay. My favorite part is page 193 where it starts a list of suggested meal items for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Extremely helpful when you find yourself in the kitchen after a long day and you're wondering what is safe to feed your child. There are a lot of regular food items that are safe. I bought extra books for my family and care givers because the first chapter explains all about the disease. Very helpful because I fumble with the explanation about how any amount of gluten is poison to the system. I HIGHLY recommend this book.

Eye opening 17 Mar 2005
By C. Kauffman - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
While waiting for blood tests results on my son, I picked up this book at the health food store. I stayed up late for three nights in a row reading. I feel this book will really help us deal with the in s and outs of a gluten free diet. My son's blood tests came back inconclusive and the doctor has decided not to do a biopsy at this time, but just trying out a gluten free diet for a week after his blood was drawn has made up my mind that even if he doesn't have Celiac, we all noted a significant improvement in his behavior and his health. This book helped me identify many symptoms of gluten intolerance in myself and as of Saturday (when a girlfriend is coming to pick up all the products in my kitchen that contain gluten (and there are a lot)); the whole family is going to go on a gluten free diet for at least six months. Those of us that see no difference will go back to eating what they want, the rest of us will stay gluten free.

The book is geared towards a Celiac diagnosed person, but anyone who is following a gluten free diet for various reasons will find help and encouragement here.

The basic premise of the Paleolithic diet is that our diets today are unnatural for humans, resulting in conditions such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and autoimmune diseases. In contrast, proponents of the diet believe that humans who lived in Paleolithic times as hunter-gatherers followed a more natural diet of meat, fish, leaves, berries, and nuts-and that they rarely, if ever, developed the conditions we see today. &quote;

Most relevant to this book is that proponents of the Paleolithic diet emphasize the avoidance of two Neolithic foods common to our diets today: gluten and milk. &quote;

buckwheat is a powerhouse. It contains a high proportion of all eight essential amino acids, which the body doesn't make itself but are still essential for keeping the body functioning. In that way, buckwheat is closer to being a complete protein than any other plant source. &quote;
