I have to admit, the whole gluten-free thing has always mystified me. One of my good friends was diagnosed with celiac disease and went gluten-free. Talking to her, it seemed to me that avoiding gluten might be a good thing for those of us who don't have celiac. Reading this book just confirmed my prior beliefs, probably because I also now think I'm gluten intolerant. As someone who has always had gut issues, it was good to learn more about gluten and its impact on our systems - particularly our guts.  Good info here - I learned far more than I anticipated.I also want to say a word about the recipes. For some reason I thought that gluten-free foods were bland and tasteless, but after going through the recipes I can see how wrong I was. Butternut Squash Risotto, Lentil Sheperd's Pie, Raspberry and Banana Ice Cream - now THOSE are foods I can't wait to try!If you have celiac or think you might be gluten intolerant I highly recommend picking up a copy of this book.
