Topics covered include: detailed advice on foods to avoid, and why; which foods you should eat; ensuring you obtain enough nutrients; food intolerance; food supplements; practical advice on overcoming problems such as fatigue and disability while preparing food; and, extensive recipe selection and sample menus.

While 4% of the population suffers from diagnosed lactose intolerance, it is estimated that a staggering 50 million Americans suffer from some degree of dairy intolerance/allergy. Moreover, recent research has linked milk protein (casein) to cancer and autoimmune illnesses and found evidence that our bodies quit making the enzymes necessary to digest milk as we age--thus setting up those who consume a dairy-rich diet for IBS, allergies and other autoimmune and digestive difficulties. Dairy has become the "new gluten"--something that people are realizing needs to be minimized in our diet whether they have a formally diagnosed allergy or not. The Dairy-Free Kitchen contains 100 delicious recipes for the foods you love without the dairy. It also provides you with a wealth of information on weeding out hidden dairy in everyday foods and getting adequate levels of calcium and minerals from a dairy-free diet.

Chris van Tulleken-father, scientist, doctor, and award-winning BBC broadcaster-made headlines with a dietary experiment that he conducted at University College London. For a month, he ate almost nothing but ultra-processed food, a typical diet for children and adults in the United States. As Chris ate, he spoke to the world's leading experts on food and processing from academia, agriculture and, most importantly, the food industry itself. Now, in a fast-paced and eye-opening narrative, van Tulleken reveals his findings. These products are ubiquitous, are the primary driver of the obesity pandemic, and are the number-one cause of environmental destruction. Yet these products are ruthlessly marketed, often as health food. By tracing the science and economics of UPF, van Tulleken reframes it as an addictive substance and obesity as a "commerciogenic disease," driven by a largely unregulated industry. Marshaling the latest evidence, Ultra-Processed People proposes real solutions to the current pandemic of diet-related disease-for businesses, for policymakers, and for us all.

In the UK in 2012 an estimated 60,000 people had their gallbladder removed because of gallstones and over 2010-2012 the figure for Ireland was nearly 20,000. This number has been increasing year on year into a virtual epidemic, almost certainly related to contemporary high sugar/fructose diets. But it is fats that bring on gallstone symptoms - `gallbladder colic', said to be one of the most acutely painful experiences we can have. While seeking treatment for gallstones, the only way to avoid this pain is to follow a no-fat or very low-fat diet so that the gallbladder is not stimulated into action. But how to change the habits of a life time? Juliet Sullivan has been on that journey and shares what she has learned along the way (now in an expanded second edition), including what worked for her and the recipes she developed that saw her through to surgery and beyond. With star ratings for fat levels, her guidance is quick and easy to follow and provides low-fat alternatives of family favourites - from a roast dinner to spag bol - so sufferers can eat with family and friends and not feel excluded on account of their medical problem. As many reviewers have said, this book is like getting advice from a close friend with whom you have a shared experience.
