<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I wanted to buy a book that I could lend out to friends that seek information about gluten sensitivity. I found a great one newly published this year: THE GLUTEN CONNECTION How Gluten Sensitivity May be Sabotaging Your Health -- And What you Can Do to Take Control NOW --by Shari Lieberman, PhD, CNS, FACN $16.95 at Borders Book She offers convincing arguments for trying the GF diet whether you have symptoms of celiac disease or not. She draws a clear distinction between gluten sensitivity & celiac disease and also a distinction between gluten allergy & gluten intolerance. Very good read. The only criticism I have for this book, is that I feel she chats about a few technical terms w/o clearly defining them first. [Such as villi, anti gliadin antibodies, etc.] We, who are fluent in the "jargon" will have no trouble following it, but I do have concerns about the average Joe understanding it. The best thing, though, is that she sites tons & tons of credible evidence for gluten sensitivity being the root cause of many chronic & common ailments. I loaned my copy of the book to a friend w/ osteoarthritis. He was convinced enough to try reducing gluten in his diet & he's feeling MUCH better as a direct result, so he's on his way to better health. Whoo hoo!
