Average Customer Ratings:

The connection between inflammation and heart disease, arthritis, and other chronic ailments has become increasingly clear. Many food allergies and poor dietary choices overstimulate the immune system and cause inflammatory responses that erode the body’s wellness and pave the path for ill health. Based on her naturopathic practice, Jessica Black has devised a complete program for how to eat and cook to minimize and even prevent inflammation and its consequences. The first part of the book explains the benefits of the anti-inflammatory diet with an accessible discussion of the science behind it. The second half contains 108 recipes. The author offers many substitution suggestions and includes a healthy ingredient tip with each recipe. Most of the dishes can be prepared quickly and easily by even novice cooks. A week of sample menus for summer months and another for winter are included, as well as a substitutions chart, allowing readers to modify their favorite recipes to increase their healing potential.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Order if you are serious... -
If you suffer from any inflamatory disease (arthritis, Asthma, Fibromyalgia, joint issues and kids Allergies (pollen, mites, etc!)) you have to read and follow this book. It was recommended to me by my naturopath. It will make a big difference in your well being and will help you to understand what and why things affect your body. My psorisis, Fibro, and ashtma are under control due to eating this way. A must read!


Overrated by most Amazon reviewers -
Only the first 53 pages of 227 pages discuss inflammation. The rest are recipes. The first part has no diagrams showing how inflammation acts on the body. I was disappointed in the book. It seems mostly a book of recipes. Also, the book has recipes for fatty and cholesterol rich animal foods which are know not to be heart healthy. I think that there are better and slightly more academic books out there that may be a better buy if someone wants to get into more depth on subject.

Good recipes, poor science -
I found the recipes in this book to be a great starting point for replacing some of my unhealthy meals with healthier ones. The author includes recipes for snacks, breads, breakfasts, herbal teas, dinners and deserts. Ingredients are all non-allergy foods. The recipes are delicious and practical.

Although the diet does produce the desired health changes for me, the author's explanation of why the it works leaves much to be desired. For example, the paragraph on canola oil directly quotes a known urban legend (see urbanlegends.about.com and browse "Food and Drink", then "Canola Oil" for a good refutation). The section on dietary fiber glosses over the differences between soluble vs. non-soluble fiber. The author repeatedly stresses the importance of freshly grinding seeds to maximize their nutritional value, however purchasing pre-ground meal seemed to work just fine for me.

Fortunately the explanation of the diet only takes up 1/4th of the book. If there's anything I've learned about health theories, it's to always do you're own research to verify any and all claims. This certainly applies to this book. I still give it 4 stars because the recipes are delicious, easy to cook, practical, and have helped produce the inflammation-reducing effects I was seeking.

Wonderful book! -
I got this book from the library, but loved it so much I bought it! I have an intolerance to wheat, and the recipes (especially the breads) look so easy and delicious. I have begun to incorporate more flax and fish after reading the book, and I feel great. I am hopeful it will make a big difference in my health and the health of my family.

Pain Relief from a diet? It's working for me!! -
None of my doctors thought a "diet" would control the chronic pain in my hips due to inflammation of the bone marrow. For 2 1/2 years I have been suffering with chronic pain, mostly in my right hip and sometimes my lower back.

I have read other Anti-Inflammatory books before. Other books are good at convincing you that inflammation exists and shows medical backing on it's link to most diseases including cancer, diabetes, and obesity. This book cuts to the chase as if you have done most of your homework and provides a simple way to eat complete with recipes and a chart. This book to some people might seem scary because it is the strictest as far as food allowances but the payoff is immeasurable...and it is working for me! Many of the foods I was eating were what we considered healthy but they were toxic for my inflammatory condition.

I would recommend this book if you are serious about fighting inflammation. It has the recipes using their suggested best ingredients....nlike other books which allow sugar and flours, peanut products and alcohol. It is easy to rule these out and be strict for some time knowing you might solve your inflammation problem once and for all! After you give this diet a fair shot you can modify your diet based on how you feel.

I am full of gratitude for the simplicity of your research and this book. And more happy that I will NOT be facing the surgeon's knife or any synthetic drugs of any kind. Along with this diet and a juice recommended to me for inflammation...I am thankful for my health and my husband thinks I'm just about a different person!!
