These days, food and diets are scrutinized: GM Food, preservatives, additives, organic farming, allergies, intolerances, salt, and sugar. The list is long!


In our household, we’ve changed our diet to cure fatigue, depression, migraines, mood swings, asthma and ezcema. We got the idea of changing our diet (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free and Refined-Sugar-Free) after consulting a child psychiatrist and a naturopath. We also read the book “Gut and Psychology Syndrome” which provide detailed information about what’s going on in the digestive system and how food can affect mental health and the nervous system (including problems such as ADHD).


Several people expressed their interest in trying a similar diet but they didn’t know where to start and what to do. A few asked me to write a cookbook. So here I am, offering you the delicious secrets of our cure!
