Be Good to Your Gut by Pat Baird
This is a cookbook of full recipes, tips and helpful hints for the millions of people who suffer from digestive problems, also known as motility disorders, and the main reason why people visit their doctors. Mot ility refers to the movement of food through the digestive system, and motility disorders include all of the complications that occur during the digestive process, from simple heartburn and indigestion to the more serious problems, such as irritable bowl syndrome and gastroparesis. In this cooking guide, Pat Baird, a registered dietitian, nutrition consultant and food writer, has created nutritious, and healthful recipes that enhance motility and minimize digestive problems. Each disorder has a full chapter devoted to important background information about the condition and a list of potentially aggravating factors. Handy tips on food selection and meal planning make it easy to create menus that increase motility and decrease discomfort. With this information, even the most inexperienced cook should find recipes for full-flavoured, easy-to-digest meals a breeze to prepare and a delight to eat. Delicious dishes, such as cranberry yogurt, coffee cake, fluffy buttermilk pancakes, country vegetable bean soup and saffron-scented risotto with Scallops, can be made easily and enjoyed without discomfort. A nutritional analysis chart is provided with each recipe to make it easy for the cook to gauge the amount of protein, carbohydrates, fat, cholesterol, sodium and calories included in each dish.| SKU | Unavailable |
