This book really opened my eyes to the world of gluten sensitivity. It is estimated that as many as 30 to 50 percent of the world population may have this sensitivity, without being aware of it. The author,Jennifer Wells, not only gives a very clear definition of gluten, and the implications of gluten sensitivity, she also provides practical tips about what to do. Not an easy task, because gluten is all over the place!If you suspect a child may be sensitive to gluten it might be best to consider switching to a gluten free diet for the entire family, so that the child doesn't feel singled out. In addition, it may be helpful for family members on a low carb diet, since gluten is very high in carbohydrates! I was amazed how high whole grain bread features on the so-called `glycemic index'! I would recommend this book to anybody who wants an indepth guide to all gluten related issues.
