I almost returned this book because our doctor recommended a Fodmap diet to help control my wife’s IBS, and this is an Anti-inflammatory one. After doing some research on both A-I and Fodmap diets, I think the A-I one and this book in particular is more practical for us. This is a wonderful book and a great introduction to this type of eating. It has very helpful lists on the types of foods, etc., that are recommended as well as the ones to avoid. It also has useful tips like which fruits and veggies you should always buy organic and why. I try to prepare fairly healthy meals but some of this stuff I just didn’t know. This book will be a staple for us and could not be less intimidating. It is written in plain, understandable and relatable language and offers some very appetizing recipes that I would like even if I wasn’t trying this diet. Thanks very much for a great resource to help us get started.

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!

As with most recipe books I worry about the amount of ingredients needed to prepare the meals, not the case with this one. Recipes are simple and easy and just when you think maybe too simple you eat them and realize that’s not the case. There isn’t one meal we haven’t liked from this book. Happy with my purchase.

Very basic and mostly recipe based (more advantageous for meat eaters). If you’re wanting to learn about an anti-inflammatory diet, this should be supplemental reading and not where to start learning about it. The list of foods doesn’t include tomatoes, or any mention of nightshades as inflammatory sparks for the system. Also doesn’t differentiate between sprouted grains and regularly packaged. Again, good general reference if you don’t care about the science. Cleanly laid out pages, lots of color.

My boyfriend and I are on week 2 right now and we already see results. We enjoy and love it! This book is a great starter board for eating anti-inflammatory – we’ve already lost a little bit of weight and the chronic pain in my knees isn’t flaring up as much as it used to do. What I love about this book is that they provide simple recipes that are easy to follow. I wish there was a full 4 weeks we could follow instead of 2 but there are a bunch of recipes at the end that we haven’t gotten to yet so I imagine we will mix and match them ourselves. What I also like about the meal plans are that the authors find multiple ways to use similar ingredients throughout the week. We definitely see this as a sustainable venture to help us meal prep as well as get us on the road to being healthier again! The only critical feedback I would provide is that a lot of the recipes have a large amount of salt/sodium. I’ve been tailoring the recipes to fit my needs such as reducing the amount of salt in the recipes and I would recommend you do that too! There’s no reason to add so much salt because the meals taste great with a pinch of it. Only because of the salt do I give it 4 stars – I would give it 4.5 if it let me. Would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is looking to eat simply and reduce inflammation in their body.

Love this book for helpful resources in selecting healthy foods and recipes for lowering inflammation in the body! I research inflammation in the body quite a bit, and I am impressed with this book for its resources and recipes. Some info I don’t necessarily agree with 100% for my own health, but I mostly align with the viewpoints here. Great addition to my cookbook library. Beautiful photos and easy to follow recipes, great read. Highly recommend!

I bought this book to help my husband who has inflammation issues. I myself have a gluten allergy and have been gluten free for many years. This is the first cookbook that I’ve purchased that I really LOVE. As of this writing, I’ve made 18 of theses recipes so far that are delicious. And some that I’ve already repeated. I love the fact that meat recipes are included. It’s not just for vegetarians or vegans. Most of the meat recipes are for fish and chicken, with a few for pork tenderloin, 1 ground beef and 1 steak. Also, almost every recipe is gluten free. And those that are not, have a tip to make them gluten free. For instance, swapping out regular pasta for gluten free, or gluten free toast for whole wheat. Another great feature is that all of these recipes are easy, and except for spices, have only 5 easy to find ingredients. No fancy expensive ingredients to buy. I like that the book gives you a 2week meal plan with a shopping list and an optional weekly prep guide. It’s very well laid out and easy to follow. However, because there are a few recipes with ingredients that I don’t like (beets for instance), I decided not to follow the weekly meal plans at first. Instead I picked out a few recipes I wanted to try, and kept a list of the ones that we really liked as we tried them. For the recipes we didn’t like, which were only a few, we substituted a recipe we did like. This allowed us to make our own meal plan. The beginning of this book explains inflammation and gives you a list of foods to enjoy, foods to consider with care, and foods to avoid. This book focuses on healthy fats, gluten free grains, veggies, low sugar fruits, seeds, legumes and anti-inflamatory spices like turmeric, ginger, rosemary and more.
So, has it helped my husband with his inflammation issues? It sure has. He has bad shoulder issues and following this diet has given him a greater range of motion in the shoulder and a lot less pain throughout the day. For me, I’ve discovered that having less dairy (can anyone say cheese please!) has helped me feel less bloated and I’ve lost a little weight.
Here are my top pros & cons. Pros: Gluten free Easy recipes that don’t involve a lot of hard to find ingredients and are quick to make The book is well laid out High hit-rate of great tasting recipes Includes both a recipe index and a full index Priced right
Cons: Wish it came in a spiral bound version (but mine has held up very well so far) There are some pictures but could have included more A few of the breakfast recipes were bland, so stick to the ones you try that you like
