After receiving a celiac disease diagnosis in her late thirties, author Lynda Board knows the difficulties of implementing a celiac-safe, reliable, gluten-free diet. People who don’t understand celiac disease thought she was crazy when eating out she couldn’t eat the fries because they were cooked in the same oil as gluten-containing foods. When her gluten-free journey started, Lynda missed take-out and found the food that she could eat outside her home was limited and more expensive. Eating with family and friends was challenging, but Lynda was inspired to find better food and fit in. In I’m Not Crazy, I’m Celiac: Gluten-Free/Low- FODMAP Cookbook Lynda shares her recipes inspired by take-out, festivals, restaurants, travel and family traditions. Cooking at home helps control what you put into your meals. In these recipes, Lynda shows how to make recipes gluten-free and low-FODMAP while also controlling the amount of sugar, fat and salt. ese recipes are easy to make and affordable—perfect for anyone with food sensitivities who loves food but wants it to taste good too. Food restrictions, sensitivities, and allergies can make dining out difficult, if not impossible. Even if you don’t have any food restrictions, cooking for family and friends who do can be challenging. I’m Not Crazy, I’m Celiac shows you don’t have to compromise on taste, or socializing with family and friends, when cooking gluten-free and low-FODMAP meals.

I'm not crazy...I'm allergic After a lifetime of dealing with what she was told was depression, “Julie” found that her problem wasn't all mysterious and uncontrollable chemical reactions. Medically identified sensitivities and/or allergies to foods and environmental conditions seemed to have a strong correlation to the same emotional and mental states that she had experienced throughout the years as depression. These were sometimes accompanied by so-called typical allergy symptoms, but in some cases those medically-recognized symptoms were missing. In desperation she reached out to family member and author, Sherilyn Powers, who had been exploring her own unusual reactions to foods and environment. Together they explored the connection between allergies and depression enabling Julie to take control of her life after fifty years of helplessness. This book is a journey of discovery and search for medical studies to help explain how every day things could be related to reactions like panic attacks, depression, uncontrollable crying, brain fog, body aches and pains and many more, when the popularly accepted allergic/sensitive reactions only include symptoms such as itchy eyes, a runny nose, and hives.

An incendiary work of science journalism debunking the myths that dominate the American diet and showing readers how to stop feeling guilty and start loving their food again—sure to ignite controversy over our obsession with what it means to eat right. FREE YOURSELF FROM ANXIETY ABOUT WHAT YOU EAT Gluten. Salt. Sugar. Fat. These are the villains of the American diet—or so a host of doctors and nutritionists would have you believe. But the science is far from settled and we are racing to eliminate wheat and corn syrup from our diets because we’ve been lied to. The truth is that almost all of us can put the buns back on our burgers and be just fine. Remember when butter was the enemy? Now it’s good for you. You may have lived through times when the Atkins Diet was good, then bad, then good again; you may have wondered why all your friends cut down on salt or went Paleo; and you might even be thinking about cutting out wheat products from your own diet. For readers suffering from dietary whiplash, The Gluten Lie is the answer. Scientists and physicians know shockingly little about proper nutrition that they didn’t know a thousand years ago, even though Americans spend billions of dollars and countless hours obsessing over “eating right.” In this groundbreaking work, Alan Levinovitz takes on bestselling physicians and dietitians, exposing the myths behind how we come to believe which foods are good and which are bad—and pointing the way to a truly healthful life, free from anxiety about what we eat.
