Just What the Doctor didnt order
This is an excellent book and a great starting point to find out what foor intolerance is all about. I have learnt a great deal and will be putting it into practice. There is a lot of reading but it is easy and very understandable. Would recommend

The Food Intolerance Bible
The Food Intolerance Bible is an invaluable resource. Like many people, I was a little confused about the difference between food allergies and food intolerances. Many of the books I've read on these subjects use the words interchangeably. I know for a fact that I have some food allergies. As a child, I was thoroughly tested. Sure enough, if I ate enough a small quantity of those foods, my tongue immediately started to swell up and I started to gasp for breath. These early incidents were scary so I learned very quickly to stay well away from these foods.

Food intolerances are slightly different. The effects aren't always immediate or dramatic. Though careful watching of my body's reaction to certain foods, I was pretty sure that there were some foods in my regular diet (namely white flour, refined sugar, and chocolate) that were causing or exasperating problems such as abdominal pain, cramping, and depression. Unfortunately, these symptoms aren't always immediately noticeable so I tend to associate these foods with a feeling of comfort and increased energy.

The Food Intolerance Bible helped me gain an understanding of my body's reactions to certain foods. It also gave me an idea about what other conditions, illnesses, or body reactions could also be causing or adding to my problems. Now, I have a place to start.

The best source of infomation to date
If you want a book with all the answers your going to be disapointed, ther is not one. The subject is confused by several types of intolerance, often interrelated. This book sets out the types, causes and actions for each. Bette still it contains simple tickbox quizzes to identify yout high scores to lead you to the most likely intoleance type(s). The recipes are not so good imo, but they are aimed at people who need to avoid everything. The chances are once you have read the book and followed a few of the tests etc you will be able to eat so much more, rendering the recipes not needed. If you are a US reader then YORK test = ELISA test, and the book will be just as good. If you are using the recipes you may need to translate some of the US food names BACK into English ;-)
