What Others Say
5 Stars is not Enough
My 19 year old daughter was diagnosed as gluten intolerant and we started a search for information. I found Living Gluten-Free For Dummies (For Dummies (Health & Fitness)) on amazon.com and I was amazed at the fantastic reviews. They are well deserved. My daughter could not put the book down. Most books on the subject are either medical books or nutritional guides. This is an entertaining read which is FULL of useful info such as how to snack at a party. I have spoken with the author Danna Korn and she is very knowledgeable and willing to help. Do not assume a "Dummies" book is too simple. It makes a complicated medical condition simple to understand.
Excellent Resource
This is the most comprehensive yet down-to-earth resource for those of us with celiac disease who must live gluten-free. I've read several books that give me medical terms that are useful I'm sure but fail to cover the basics of day-to-day living. This one does just that plus it has recipes and lots of web sites to explore. I would call this the "Bible" for gluten free living.
Paisano's for GF dining
On page 276 the author teases us with a description of a freshly baked GF pizza, home-brewed GF beer, and freshly baked GF dessert. I don't know about the home-brewed GF beer, though I'm sure they have GF beer, the restaurant is Paisano's in Albuquerque, NM. GF Pasta, GF pizza, you name it, they have it...and it's great!
Good Book
This is a good book for someone just learning about Gluten free eating. It is basic and easy to understand.
