The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Cookbook:
Delicious and Wellness Enhancing Recipes Created Especially for Cfs Sufferers
by Mary Hale, Chris Mille
Paperback (1996)

Chronic fatigue syndrome, purported to be a disease of the immune system, is said to affect five million people in this country. The recipes here are divided into two phases: the first and most stringent for people newly diagnosed with the illness or in need of drastic dietary changes, and the second offering a greater range of foods. A sound philosophical attitude dominates. For people with allergies, the diet omits sugar, dairy products, fruits, wheat and rye, and all foods containing yeast. There is a definite emphasis on healthful recipes that are appropriate for anyone interested in changing eating habits or losing weight. The recipes include lots of fresh herbs and spices to enhance flavors, as well as unusual ingredients, such as squid.
