Allergies; Coping with illness; Cookery for specific diets & conditions

Allergies are increasing at a rapid rate and the team of experts behind Allergy Sense are here to break them down for families, ensuring people have up to date, and scientifically vetted, information.

Protecting your health, or your child’s health while also maintaining a level of ‘normality’ as a family can become an all-consuming focus. The authors of this book, an allergy specialist, a paediatric dietitian and an occupational therapist collaborate to unpack the difficulties in identifying specific allergies, prevent picky eating in children and guide you to live and eat as a family within the context of this challenge. As well as explaining the background and offering solutions Allergy Sense includes 70 delicious recipes for all the family to try at home.
