Complete Anti-Inflammatory Diet for Beginners

A very helpful book

Where do I start - I do not love cooking but I've had some health issues (inflammation, brain fog, etc.) and was hoping this book could address that. I did a lot of research on what might be inflammatory on me and with a grain of salt, also took my food sensitivity test into account as well. When I got the book, I was expecting to not like half the recipes in there but I read through week 1, then week 2 - I liked them! There were a couple of iffy ones (salads) that I didn't know I was going to like but it turned out as one of my favs as it was easy to put together & actually tasty! i.e. i do not like smell or taste of cooked lentils but it was a great addition to some of these recipes! For those saying this is not an anti-inflammatory book, different items are inflammatory to different people. You need to pay attention to your body and see how yoru body reacts to certain foods. And there's always a range of how much you react to certain foods. Like if dairy doesn't sit well with you, leave it out (not that these recipes have dairy but it does recommend of part of breakfast some days but easily left out). I don't do good with almods, so I'd replace with walnuts, etc. - you get the point. I do wish that there was more than 2 weeks of meal plan. I love the grocery list, I was able to break it into what to get at costco, etc. It made shopping a breeze (for the most part). Book says this but it does make meals for more than 2 people. It's a lot. It's currently just my husband and I, and my husband is a very picky eater so it's mostly me eating these and 1 week worth of groceries I think will last me 2-3 weeks! I will be freezing some of these for sure and hoping ingredients won't go to waste. It's too early to say how I feel as I'm only on week 1 but I know from the past, going vegan for a month (essentially removing processed foods), it will have a tremendous impact on my health. I'm just happy that I found a book with recipes I ACTUALLY like. I will be buying her other books too once I'm done with this one. For twenty-something dollars, this was totally worth it.

Todo bien

This book continues some wonderful recipes that are practical, as well as being simple to make and delicious. Incorporating these meals into daily life should really help to improve health and wellbeing.

Still to early to see benefits deriving for the diet, but the advice and food combinations suggested are absolutely delicious! Highly recommended also for people who do not have any autoimmune diseases, indeed, the recipes are very tasty and healthy!
