Description

When Michael Symon found out he had rheumatoid arthritis and external lupus, he suspected that what he ate -- or didn't eat -- could make a profound difference in his levels of inflammation and how he felt. So he committed to a food "reset" on The Chew: no red meat, white flour, sugar, dairy, or alcohol. Michael used social media to share his experiment with his fans, and was shocked by the outcome: after completing the reset, he felt amazing. He discovered that dairy, sugar, and processed show more flours are his food triggers, and that by avoiding them, his inflammation essentially vanished. Michael came up with more than 125 recipes to satisfy his cravings without aggravating his body, including Ginger and Chile-Roast Chicken, dairy-free Mac and Cheese, Spaghetti Squash with Arugula Pesto, and Apple and Cherry Oat Crisp, among many others. Now he is sharing these recipes, as well as a guide on how to identify your food triggers and create a meal plan that works around whatever ingredient causes your discomfort so that you too can enjoy incredible food without sacrificing your health. show less

So far we have made 3 recipes out of this cookbook and enjoyed every one. We have not yet attempted Mike's suggestion of eliminating a lot of our existing diet and starting over with some basics, then gradually adding more foods in. Either way, there are lots of good sounding recipes in this cookbook and Mike's recipes are always good.
nonfiction -- this is a collection of recipes, which aren't as helpful as just knowing which foods you're sensitive to and then just not cooking with those ingredients. But if you're wondering, the color photos are nice and the recipes are more imaginative (potato pancakes with brussels sprouts and apple salad) than what you'd come up with on your own.

contents include:
* 10-day reset (elimination diet so that you can test for which foods you're sensitive to)
* how to reintroduce
* No Dairy (recipes for dairy-sensitive people)
* No Flour
* No Meat
* No Refined Sugar
* Batch Recipes (making cheese from cashews, etc.)
