This is the first book I purchased years ago when my son was first diagnoised with Autism. Couldn't bear the challenge of the diet then, but now see it as a necessity for life. Lisa has wonderful recipes that have saved me -particularly the easier ones that are quick to pull together. I can't imagine going GFCF without this and volume 2. Would, however, love the authors to provide an updated edition!

this book convinced my grandson's parents that he may be autistic and in need of a similar diet that the one described on the book. When my grandson's other grandmother read it after I sent it to her, she called me to say she could not put the book away thinking that our little boy was exactly like Lisa's son. We found a DAN doctor and put him on treatment early enough that now he is in regular school and doing very well. I don't think the book is intended to provide a magical diet for every child in the spectrum. But it provides wonderful information about how what you eat can make you sick and that an adequate individualized diet may help your child. I loved her story, her courage and her determination to help her child get better. It was so helpful for us, I will always be thankful to Lisa.

This book has been great! It has so much information on the reasoning behind a gluten-free diet. It lists ingredients to avoid when reading labels and lists ingredients that are okay. It has great recipes and tons of references. It is definitely a must have for any parent even considering a GF diet.

My husband ordered this book when we decided to put my son on a gluten-free diet. I was looking mainly for a gluten-free cookbook with some helpful hints included. Half the book is about the author's story and theories about why the diets in this book should be followed. For the most part I don't agree with her theories. The cookbook part is okay but so far has not really been the taste of my family. Also there are a lot of recipes for muffins and desserts which I don't really need because stores have a lot of gluten-free snacks. I am really looking for more meals I can cook my family.
