The G-Free Diet: A Gluten-Free Survival Guide (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
Quick, easy read but most of Hasselbeck's suggestions - unless you have both an assistant and a nanny - are unrealistic. Most of her recommendations are patently absurd for, oh, I don't know, anyone who actually has a normal life and struggles with juggling it all. There is no way I could implement most of her suggestions and I don't even have kids (yet)! But, should I happen to find myself rich enough to have an assistant and a maid, full-time nanny, and a team of stylists for my TV show, then I would certainly be able to implement her ideas (read: tell my staff to follow her directives). At times redundant, I found this book to be very helpful. My wife has a gluten sensitivity, so she has decided to cut out gluten entirely. As the cook of the house, it is my job to educate myself so that she won't continue to get sick because I occasionally am careless with the gluten - I love bread, and I bake a lot of it every day :) A crumb here and there doesn't usually bother her, but sometimes it can be rather determental - I used this book as a guide to help me avoid 'glutening' my wife in the kitchen.It is a great resource that leads to other great resources, so if you're at all curious about what being gluten-free means, this book is a nice, simple starting point.
What do You think about The G-Free Diet: A Gluten-Free Survival Guide (2009)?
She has some good advice, but a little over the top for me. Needs more science based info.
