Allergy Cooking with Ease: The No Wheat, Milk, Eggs, Corn, and Soy Cookbook Review
My daughter is allergic to many foods including dairy, soy, wheat, gluten, tomatoes, all nuts, seafood, sugar, and many others. This book is perfect for her needs! I have only tried two recipes but I made a quinoa pizza dough with a pesto sauce and goat cheese and she loved it! I do have to be careful and make some substitutions here and there but I appreciate all the choices the book has to offer. For example, I had to leave the garlic out of the pesto and substitute sunflower seeds for pine nuts. I still appreciate the base recipes that this book offers and am excited to get my own copy. I am borrowing the one I have now but after one complete dinner I am sold! This is the best allergy book I have found so far. Thank you to the author!

The Inflammation Syndrome: The Complete Nutritional Program to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease, Arthritis, Diabetes, Allergies, and Asthma Review
If you really want to read a book by a scientist that revolutionized the field of nutrition, don't read this; read "The China Study" by T. Colin Campbell. It will make your head spin. The 30-year study conducted by international researchers more than makes the case against animal protein and milk. Nowhere does Challem's book even mention studies about the increased incidence of Type 1 diabetes among children who drink milk.
I wouldn't waste time reading Challem's book. It's outdated and based on shady science.

One Of The Gang: Nurturing the Souls of Children with Food Allergies Review
My son is 6, with multiple food allergies, and he LOVES this book! You can tell that it makes him feel better about having allergies when he's reading it with me. It's very well-written, matter of fact, and reassuring for kids and the pictures are wonderful to see too.
We have a bunch of allergy books geared towards kids, and if your child is struggling emotionally at all with having allergies, this is the best book I've come across so far! I highly recommend it!
