 A great book for the Gluten intolerant July 13, 2010
PDoreen Proctor (Sonoma, CA USA)
This book is so informant that I bought an extra for a friend that does gourmet catering. She sometimes has to consider a client that has the gluten intolerance and needed a book that explains the diet and recipes.
I purchased these books from Amazon.com.
Also many books about Chickens.

My daughter has been diagnosed with Celiac and I bought this for her. The price was very good and it was like brand new without the high cost. It explained things well and was a help to her in the beginning.Easy to understand.

Don't let the "For Dummies" moniker fool you. Typically, you find so much mis-information online and in other published books relating to gluten-free advice, it's refreshing to read such a well-researched, vibrant, accurate, and, dare I say, inspiring game plan for embarking on a lifelong gluten-free journey. No stone is left unturned, and many myths are dispelled - with an ample dose of wit and humor.
Most gluten-free books are clinical, boring, and dry. This one is fun, whimsical, positive, and energetic. You feel like the author is truly optimistic about the gluten-free diet being the key to optimal health. No gf book I've read paints such an accurate, in-depth and rosy picture.
Great reference book! May 3, 2010

When I was diagnosed with Celiac, I was overwhelmed with all of the information out there. This book explained things in terms that were easily understandable & it didn't have to be read from cover to cover in order to learn. It provided the basic information & encouragement I needed, including suppliers, websites & recipes. I love the author's sense of humor & did not find the comments offensive, perhaps because I have a sarcastic sense of humor. Her positive attitude, encouragement & silliness did wonders to bring me out of my gloom & doom & made me realize that a gluten-free diet is doable. I keep this book handy because I refer back to it often.
Some reviewers seemed miffed by what they saw as misinformation in this book. I have several pamphlets from different medical institutions, & even they contradict each other on some points. My philosophy is take what you like & leave the rest. Not everything you read is the Gospel! (For instance, some believe that a carbohydrate-free diet is the healthiest way to live, others swear it'll kill you.)
This book has a lot of useful information in it. I highly recommend it!

I am very pleased with this book, it gives the information I needed in a very easy way to understand. This is a difficult way of eating to begin with as there are not that many items that are gluten free. However, this books shows you how to make this change easier and, experiment with flours, etc. along the way.
