I would like to add to my library of Gluten Free Books and Cookbooks. I need suggestion for my girls to give me as gifts.

I have "Cooks Fast and Healthy" Bette Hagman and "Wheat-Free, Worry Free" by Danna Korn.

I have heard yes and no for the "Gluten-Free Bible" :blink:

What books would you recommend.

Thanks Lisa B.

Shelly Cases' Gluten Free Resource Guide is a nice reference - has lots of company contact information as well.

"FOOD ALLERGIES AND FOOD INTOLERANCE"

A COMPLETE GUIDE TO THEIR IDENTIFICATION AND TREATMENT.

By JONATHAN BROSTOFF, MD & LINDA GAMIN.

One of the girls in the allergy doc's office handed this to me when I was waiting for my food allergy shot the other day. It looked good. It had info on IGA IGG and more. I will get it if anyone in Celiac-cyberspace gives it a thumbs up.

I'll ask Santa for it for Xmas.

I read Gluten Free Bible when I was first diagnosed and found it both informative and humorous at the same time. I would recomend it.

There is a lot of debate on the Gluten Free Bible not being reliable....check out the reading section of this forum about members posts on this book. It is not Good! Jax Peters Lowell does not check her facts.

Best book I found is "A Personal Touch on Celiac Disease" put out by "A Personal Touch Publishing" and written by celiacs (some chapters even written by kids with celiac about their first "gluten free halloween" etc. Barns And Noble can order it in for $15. Plus a good book is "Kids With Celiac" by Dana Korn (also her Wheat Free, Worry Free" is a top fave on this site)!

What a good gift idea! The only thing is, I would like to ask for books on quick and easy gluten free cooking. I hate to cook, so if you have any suggestions that don't involve getting "special" foods that you only can get from health food stores, I would like to know about them! I have been using the crockpot a lot more now. Reynold's even makes slow cooker liners that you put in the crockpot and when you are done all you do is pull out the liner and throw it away. No clean up!!

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
