Customer Rating:  
Summary: Fanatical
Comment: My nutritionist (who is a celiac) asked me to burn this book! The advice is fanatical. Throw away your non-stick cookware, plastic containers and wooden spoons because they are contaminated. Pleassse!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Great Place to Start
Comment: This was the first book we bought after our diagnosis. (A Year Ago) It was very helpful in figuring out our new lifestyle!
Customer Rating:
Summary: cross contamination
Comment: The many ideas given (eat the inside of sandwiches, eat the top off of canapes, avoid the crust) can give a true celiac serious consequences. Sometimes, a person can eat gluten with no obvious side effects but do great "silent damage" to one's intestines. There are complications to celiac disease such as refractory sprue and collagenous sprue. I have these complications due to not being strict enough when following the gluten free diet.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Absolute must for surviving gluten-free life
Comment: This is an absolute must for anyone who needs a quick, yet thorough guide to the many ways gluten-free living affects your life and the lives of those around you. The recipes in it are great, the helpful tips are priceless, and Lowell's sense of humor and understanding is really refreshing. I bought a copy for my grandmother, who at almost 80, has finally acknowledged the extent of how gluten has affected her. I have recommended it to co-workers who are gluten intolerant, and to folks I've encountered who have family members who are celiacs, and need help understanding how to deal with it. Also a huge help in understanding how to take control of your treatment and get the best care possible from your doctors!
