The Rheumatoid Arthritis Cookbook: Anti-Inflammatory Recipes to Fight Flares and Fatigue

For the first time since the onset of Rheumatoid Arthritis symptoms and my subsequent diagnosis, I have indirectly met someone (the author) who truly understands what it feels like to live with this disease. One of the opening statements is “I’m sick and tired of always feeling sick and tired” which is exactly how I feel.There is also a huge amount of recognition and focus on the feeling of extreme fatigue, which in my experience is overlooked by healthcare professionals.So if you have been diagnosed with RA, I highly recommend this book. It’s brilliant.Let food be thy medicine…(And after dropping foods with sugars ending in “ose” I think I already feel better than before).

GOOD BOOK

It was a nice book, but most of the menus are too complicated to do. Some of the ingredients Ive never heard of. I just wanted simple food. But I suppose some people will like it, but sorry, not for me

Informative, easy to read, with practical recipes.

no review

Good

Still reading this but hoping it works for me.

Good book.

I cannot say that I followed strictly through and gotten better, but I can say that my nutrition overall became smarter thanks to this book. I did feel like I get more energy when I eat more plant-based foods with lean protein and fish. Less sugar makes you more alert in the long run. But is it ever strict!

This is a fantastic cook book for those with rheumatoid arthritis! I have heard over and over again that changing your diet can have beneficial effects on your RA, so I finally decided to try it. This book has helped me to get a lot of basic information right at my fingertips and given me plenty of recipes to start with. I'm now beginning to experiment on my own using the same basic ingredients and concepts that this book teaches. The author did a great job laying everything out very clearly and giving bulleted lists of what foods you should enjoy and what should be avoided. There are also great pictures of many of the dishes, as well as helpful tips for someone with a busy schedule. This has been well worth the money and has introduced me to some very tasty and different dishes!

A very informative recipe book.

I bought this book for my Mother as she is a poor eater which i think contributes to her arthritis and join pains. While i do not expect to start whipping up meals with these good-looking recipes, the information in the front of the back has been very valuable to help her understand why certain foods would help. What types of foods in general she should eat like Monosaturated fats... so easy for her to do since she likes avocados and nuts. She also has been told that turmeric is a good herb for inflammation and joint pain but she did not know how to incorporate that into foods. This book has recipes. I was really happy with the foreword information and plain-talk explanations that my mother can read and understand. For that the book has been invaluable.

good and lots of information
