Description

Gluten from wheat is present in an overwhelming amount of the food we eat. Increasing numbers of people however, are discovering that they are either allergic to wheat and gluten or have a gluten intolerance - a coeliac condition. The restrictions of a gluten free diet can make eating well seem impossible. This book contains over 130 nutritionally-sound recipes - specially designed to help make a gluten free diet easy to follow.

Author Biography

Rita Greer is a graduate of the Royal College of Art with an interest in nutrition and health. For over thirty years she has researched, invented and written about food for special diets, in particular exclusion diets where one or more basic foods are excluded from the diet. She has had over thirty titles published breaking new ground in areas previously ignored. Some are translated into Dutch, Spanish and Italian. Rita Greer is best known for her classic books for coeliacs (Gluten-free) and wheat, egg and milk free cooking. These have been in print for decades. Known as the "Doyenne of special diet cooking" she actually cooks on a daily basis for someone with multiple allergies and serious health problems. This gives her unique knowledge and experience in this field. Her approach is hands on, practical and sensible, in tune with the variety of food and influence from all corners of the world that we have all come to expect.
