Riassunto

A book of recipes devised by a leading chef and based on nutritional advice, especially for people with lactose intolerance. Containing over 100 recipes that have been created to tempt your tastebuds while managing your symptoms, together with helpful advice and practical information, Healthy Dairy-free Eating will help you understand lactose intolerance and limit its impact. Lactose intolerance is caused by a lack of lactase (a type of enzyme) normally produced in your small intestine. This enzyme breaks down lactose, a type of sugar found in milk, so that it can be absorbed into the blood stream. When lactase is missing or depleted, lactose builds up in the large intestine, causing stomach cramps, wind and diarrhoea. Milk is the only dietary source of lactose, but lactose is present in products made with milk such as cheese and butter, and is also added to some prepared foods. There are several other reasons for choosing a dairy-free diet, including milk allergy, veganism, religion or those who are simply seeking a 'healthier' lifestyle. Dietitian Tanya Carr explains the difference between lactose intolerance, milk allergy and dairy reaction, their symptoms and how they are diagnosed. Dairy alternatives are explored and recent research is considered. A concern for both adults and children who cannot tolerate dairy is getting enough calcium into the diet, so this is addressed along with other dietary recommendations for eating dairy-free. Invaluable advice on shopping and cooking are also given plus tips for eating out. The second part of the book provides over 100 recipes, created by Mini C in consultation with Tanya. Many popular dishes such as curries, pasta sauces, cheesecake and ice cream contain lactose, and Mini C has devised delicious, lactose-free versions of these, so they no longer need be off-limits to those with LI. In addition she has created many delicious Asian dishes (traditionally lactose free) to bring exciting new flavours into your diet. Recipes are divided into meal types - Breakfasts and Late Night Dishes, Salads and Appetisers, Soups, One Plate Meals, Main Courses and Desserts and Drinks.
