Subject: Nutrition Resource Bulletin for Medical Librarians
I circulate a periodic electronic bulletin about food and nutrition
resources of interest to health professionals. The resources are
all written, prepared or compiled by food and nutrition professionals,
academics or physicians. The bulletin details books, pamphlets, vidoes
and other offerings from the field of scientific medicine (as opposed
to alternative medicine). It's a bit stodgy, I'll admit.
The resources are self-published or from small printers and publishers
who do not advertise to the public or to librarians.
I hope will find it useful.

Managing Food Allergy & Intolerance: A Practical Guide (DNS002)
by Janice Vickerstaff Joneja, PhD, RDN
Dr. Joneja is coordinator of the Allergy Nutrition Program at
Vancouver Hospital and Health Sciences Centre in British Columbia
and is an Adjunct Professor in the School of Family and Nutritional
Sciences at the University of British Columbia. The Allergy
Nutrition Program includes an outpatient clinic where people
obtain help in the identification and management of their adverse
reactions to foods. The outreach program provides information
on current research in food allergy to physicians and dietitians.
Dr. Joneja conducts research in adverse reactions to foods and
supervises graduate student research in this area.
Managing Food Allergy & Intolerance is an extensive 571 page manual written
for allergists, family physicians and dietitians who counsel allergy
clients. It is a useful desk reference for food scientists, as well.
Dr. Joneja, who holds a PhD in medical microbiology and is a registered
dietitian, has written the first truly comprehensive practical guide
to this difficult area of practice.
Managing Food Allergy and Intolerance (DNS002) is designed to provide you
with the information and tools to detect food sensitivities and design
nutritionally adequate diets to ensure the best possible health for
food-sensitive persons. As the manual is guaranteed, you may review it
for up to 30 days and return it for a full refund if it does not
meet your expectations.
This clear, lucid and practical guide includes complete information
describing food allergy, adverse reactions, cross-reactivity, allergenic
potential, food allergy tests, diagnosis and management, elimination and
challenge tests and rotation diets. The manual includes extensive
information on milk allergy, lactose intolerance, egg, grain, peanut,
soy, yeast, biogenic amines, tyramine, nickel, food colouring agents,
salicylates, benzoates, sulphites, monosodium glutamate, nitrate,
nitrite, butylated compounds and multiple allergens in food.
Separate comprehensive sections on pediatric allergy, disaccharide
intolerance, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome, urticaria,
angioedema, migraine headaches, asthma, eczema and nocturnal
enuresis are included to help you manage clients with food sensititities
more confidently.
Dr. Janice Joneja has successfully used the information in this
book on over 1300 patients of all ages at the Vancouver Hospital and
Health Sciences Centre Allergy Nutrition Program. Along with
explanations of the underlying mechanisms related to each condition are
risk-free, nutritionally sound elimination and challenge test and diet plans
and user friendly client information sheets for photocopying. Each section
containscomprehensive information on mechanisms and symptoms, specific food
restrictions, client information sheets, diets, recipes, shopping
tips and information on meals away from home.
