Up to 75% of the world’s population is lactose-intolerant and this number is on the rise.* With food allergies and intolerances to gluten, dairy, wheat, and soy growing rapidly, more and more people are having to make adjustments to their daily diets. At the slightest hint of a food allergy or intolerance, the first casualty on the menu is the dessert. Sweets, cakes, ice-creams, and pastries are all considered to be “off-limit” to those suffering food intolerances and are an enjoyment that has to be denied.
Chef Ariana Bundy is determined to bring desserts back to the menu. A top pastry chef and intolerant to dairy herself, Ariana Bundy has conjured up more than 100 gluten-, soy- and lactose-free recipes for cakes, biscuits, desserts, truffles, ice-creams and more, in her book Sweet Alternative. Developed through years of research and recipe testing, this book is the first to reveal how to make professional-looking, mouth-watering desserts without using butter, cream, flour, or soy, and with ingredients easily accessible to the average consumer. |

We’ve all seen them; those one-page stories that grace nearly every health-oriented women’s magazines. A person’s triumph over a health struggle, whether it is weight loss, cancer, or an autoimmune disorder, is summed up in a few short paragraphs. I am always left wondering, was it really that easy for them? And, did they actually find the answer, or are we catching them a moment too soon, when perhaps their true satisfaction with life is yet to be attained?
Over two years ago I came across a blogger known as The Healthy Cookie online, Meghan offline. Meghan seemed to be on one of these health journeys, but I could tell from reading her posts that she wasn’t there yet. She was learning, but like so many of us, there was still so much frustration. Yet, she persisted, and grew, and persisted, and changed, and persisted, and won. |

ST. LOUIS, August 25, 2009 - Allergy-friendly, gluten-free Allergaroo is a simple solution for healthy, delicious, worry-free school lunches for kids with food allergies and other food intolerances - There’s a lot of homework a mom of kids with food allergies has to do before she can even think of sending her kids back to school. She must make certain that the school will be a safe environment. She needs assurance that the staff is properly trained in handling accidental exposures. And she must find healthy and delicious foods that her children can eat safely at school.
Tabor Burke has two food-allergic kids of her own, so she knows all too well the challenges of preparing them for back to school – especially when it comes to the food she packs in their lunch boxes.
