It is thought that about one per cent of people in both the US and UK, adults and children alike, are affected by wheat intolerance and celiac disease (also known in the UK as coeliac disease). If you, or somebody close to you has been diagnosed with gluten intolerance or celiac disease this book will help you to come to terms with and demystify the condition by describing how it affects the body, the signs and symptoms to look for, and complications which may arise. Diagnosis, testing and treatment are also described.

Practical advice to enable the management of gluten in the kitchen and bathroom is also set out, as are suggestions for gluten free ingredients and substitutes for gluten used in cooking. In addition there is a selection of six delicious, easy to prepare gluten-free recipes for you to try out.

So whether you are compelled to have a gluten free diet for health reasons, or because you have made a conscious lifestyle decision to enjoy a gluten free diet, there is much in this book for you.
