Produktbeschreibung

Do you want an expert to help you understand food allergy/ intolerance? Well, this eBook is written for you so that you can get to grips with the possibility of food allergy/ intolerance.

I (Dr Rodney Ford) want to guide you through the food allergy maze. Most people are confused about food allergy/intolerances. Are you? Do you need some expert help?

I have spent my career in medicine helping people understand and diagnose their food reactions. I am a gluten, celiac and food allergy expert. In my Clinic, every day, I see people who are confused about how to work out if they might be reacting to foods.

I cannot see everyone in my Clinic, but I want to help you find out if foods could be making you, or your child ill. Do you wonder if you, or your child, might be getting sick by eating dairy? wheat? gluten? nuts? soy? additives? or something else? I have written this eBook to help you on your food allergy path.

I want to help you crack the Food Allergy Maze.

Best wishes, Dr Rodney Ford.
