Feast Without Yeast: Information!

William G. Crook, M.D., author of The Yeast Connection and the Woman, and The Yeast Connection Handbook says:

"Feast Without Yeast: 4 Stages to Better Health is a wonderful book. Comprehensive, yet concise. Authoritative, user-friendly, readable and unique because the authors are parents of an autistic child. Moreover, they have worked tirelessly in stores and in their kitchen putting practical recipes together which their son would eat."

A cookbook filled with more than 225 original, kitchen tested recipes. All of them are yeast free. Most are free of gluten and wheat, casein and milk, and eggs. All are free of soy, rye, corn, additives and preservatives. The recipes are easy to follow, designed so a 10 year old can use them!
A complete guide to making the transition to yeast free, and, if necessary wheat (gluten) free and milk (casein) free living. We give you simple steps to follow, in four stages, eliminating only the most necessary foods to improve your health. You will get a list of the foods you can eat and those you can't eat. Plus, every recipe is keyed to the Stages, so you know exactly what you can cook at all times.

A question was raised on Amazon.com, is this book really valuable for people following a yeast free, gluten free, casein free diet?

The answer is YES! Feast Without Yeast is 100% yeast free, and is "mostly" free of wheat and milk. There are 228 recipes in the book. All are free of yeast and fermented and moldy foods. Approximately 190 of the 228 are free of milk and wheat as well. The reviewer states only a handful of recipes are gluten/casein free. We fail to see how he or she can come to that conclusion. For example, 11 of the 14 "Mainly potato" recipes are free of wheat and milk; 17 of the 21 "Mainly Vegetable" recipes are free of wheat and milk; and 100% of the meat, fish and poultry recipes are. The count is similar in all chapters except desserts, "Sweets & Treats." Although all of the cakes and cookes have wheat and milk, we do have milk and wheat free pies, sorbets (a frozen dessert), frostings, candy and even a pudding. The reviewer states that most of the gluten and casein free foods are "beverages." Only 3 of the 228 recipes are for beverages, and 2 of those three are milk and wheat free. We hope that all of our customers will be happy and will find this book useful and helpful, and regret any confusion that this review may cause.
