About the Reviews
First, let me state, I purchased this book. I am not a paid reviewer nor have I received anything for doing a review.
Some of the recipes are time consuming.
Some of the recipes have ingredients that I had to look for - they weren't in my regular grocery store. I was able to find everything at a high end grocer.
The food is good, or at least I like most of it.
It is hard work only if you allow it to be. I haven't made every recipe in the book. I make what I like.
*********************************
I don't write reviews often, but I had to for this book. I was just diagnosed with an inflammatory condition, and I found this book to be super helpful. I did an AIP diet once a few years ago, and I felt the best I ever have in my life--but figuring out what to make was overwhelming and stressful. This book takes out the overwhelm, and makes following this diet much, much easier. It is simple, straightforward, and very easy to read. I can't wait to get started with these recipes! The only suggestion I have with future editions is to include more substitutions, particularly with the smoothies.
Also, wanted to add that YES this book does include some food not typically found in an AIP diet. However, if you read the entire intro section it explains why, and stresses the importance of listening to your body and eliminating those foods if they cause you trouble.
*********************************
As someone who struggles with joint inflammation, headaches and constant bloating, I have constantly been told that medication is the answer to all my problems...and then they get worse...and then I over-medicate. I am a meat and potatoes type of girl and not very good at following 'diets' because I have a hard time being told what to eat, but I love that there are charts to suggest food to avoid (high inflammatory foods) and food you can eat as much as you want of (low inflammatory foods). Whether you are looking for a strict eating plan, or a timer-saver, this book provides you with all of the information you need to get started, with lots of options to cater to your taste preferences, boost your immune system and reduce inflammation throughout your body.
