"Grains and dairy foods are important components of nourishing traditional diets; however, grains and milk products are the most difficult foods to digest and often need to be removed from the diet for healing to take place. Mandy Blume guides you through the process of going gluten-free and casein free and provides delicious GFCF recipes, so that you never feel deprived." —Sally Fallon Morell, President The Weston A. Price Foundation

Real Food and Real Recovery for Real People!
In today’s junk-food culture, diseases and allergies stemming from our lifestyle choices are so prevalent that most of us know someone afflicted with at least one food-related condition—perhaps that “someone” is even us. And perhaps we don’t even realize that our dietary choices are causing us to feel less than our best.
As we search for a healthier way to live, we’re faced with hard questions, like:
How do we know what “clean eating” really is?
Do we have to spend whole days cooking and entire paychecks buying expensive foods?
Is there anyone who’s been down this road before, or are we alone in our confusion and frustration?
Thankfully, Mandy Blume has traveled the path of lifestyle change. In Real Food Recovery, she’s reaching out to provide fellow moms with advice, support, and affordable, doable recipes that will appeal to busy families like yours. Mandy shares stories of illness, loss, hope, and recovery in this book that’s part cookbook, part “mom-to-mom chat.” Real Food Recovery is a treasure trove of delicious recipes, heartfelt encouragement, and nonjudgmental guidance that struggling moms everywhere can rely on as they seek optimal health for themselves and their families.
