This review is from: Failsafe Cookbook (Paperback)

If you have skin problems, allergies, ADD, Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, or any other health problem or 'syndrome,' buy this book and visit Sue Dengate's Food Intolerance Network web site.

Most of our health problems seem to be caused by the foods we eat. You might be allergic to something you eat every day and don't even know it. Simplify your diet, at least for a while, and see if it makes a difference in your health in ways you never thought possible. It might even raise your I.Q. a little. Who knows? Try it and find out.

I love the simple, healthy recipes in this cookbook. It's a great accompaniment to the Fed Up book but is also great on it's own. I get the impression that Sue Dengate is a wonderful human being who really just wants to help parents improve the lives of their children through diet (and why shouldn't the parents benefit at the same time.) I've tried several recipes in the short time I've had this book and my family loved them, even my husband who sometimes rolls his eyes at my "healthy" meal experiments. I have also shared the information with friends and they are noticing differences in concentration and increased clarity in thinking by going failsafe.
