I wanted to look into the FODMAP for me and my kids, and I was wondering what the best book for the how's and why's of this diet is.  Any advice would be welcome. :)

Hi Nicole...someone recommended the book by Sue Shepard to me. I had it on hold at the library, but by the time I got it the holidays were upon us and I didn't end up doing anything with it. It looked good if that helps. Lol! I have a hard time mentally thinking about giving up any more food right now.

I have the book by Sue Shepard, it's pretty clear and informational. I also have a hard time mentally giving up any more food. I did make some changes, but for the most part I am so restricted to begin with I didn't jump into it fully. 

 

I am having surgery in a few weeks for a broken toe, and the surgeon recommended it for other issues we discussed, like arthritis changes in my bones he saw. he is sending me to a rheumatologist to check into this, and I meet with him on Friday. if this doc recommends it I will probably make more changes. 

 

always something!

LOL It helps.  ;)  I actually have a hold on that one at the library. I should have it by February.

Good luck with the rheumy!  I hope you find answers, but then again I hope you don't.  ;)  I know when I saw the rheumy I actually broke into tears of frustration when she said my arthritis must be celiac disease related.  I was relieved but ridiculously disappointed that there was nothing I could do but give it more time.  LOL  :rolleyes:   That rheumy did not recommend anything about dietary changes to me at all.  Actually, she did nothing for me but I wasn't in a flare up at the time of my appointment so I'm mot sure what she believed either.

 

Good luck!  Let us know how it goes.

Here is a link to the one my g.i. gave me.

It's really not a hard diet to follow.  I did it for about six months.  I did get a little tired of eating the same vegetables, but just in time the dietician told me to add in summer squash and zucchini.  It's very similar to the SCD diet, but I found it to be not as restricting and easier to follow.  You'll find good recipes on Kate Scarlotta's blog, also.

Together with Celiac I also have IBD and although I am now officially in remission since i have been gluten free GI recommended I go on FODMP diet in order to deal with some other intolerances and problems I also have - this book was recommended to me: IBS free at last! By Patsy Catsos is a good guide to the FODMP elimination diet - it looks like it is devoted to IBS but also deals with celiac and IBD and I have found it extremely informative. Hope this helps!!

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.

      FDA looking for input on Celiac Gluten sensitivity labeling PLEASE READ and submit your suggestions

      I believe the GFCO does use a common logo for certified gluten free products (those containing not more that 10ppm of gluten) but nothing universal yet from the FDA for standard gluten free products (those containing not more that 20ppm).

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I have a One Pot and decided to start using it one day. I was hesitant at first making my own yogurt, but was surprised at how easy it was. I like mine better too.

      Because I spend so much time reading every word on all food packaging, I personally would greatly appreciate it if there was one common gluten-free symbol written in large-enough text, and always located in the same place. That alone will make shopping easier and faster. I dread having to buy packaged food. Thank you very much for asking,

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
