 “Chronic Heartburn” Is a Sweet Dish
By Douglas Sheffield
In an area filled to the lid with cookbooks of each taste and portion, “Chronic Heartburn: Managing Acid Reflux and GERD Through Understanding, Diet and Lifestyle” is a welcome and well-prepared arrival for gastronomical considerations little served at present. For any individual who suffers heartburn, and thereby have a tendancy to view the kitchen with a good deal of trepidation, “Chronic Heartburn” is a gateway to culinary freedom and delicious experience. As gratifying to read as it is written and researched, the book offers everything: causal selective information of acid reflux (including informative diagrams), treatment choices (including herbal ones), life style modifications, guides to foods that injure and heal, charts for efficaciously managing heartburn, and over one-hundred recipes, from soups to smoothies to main-course meats and seafood. Among my favorites: grilled halibut with papaya salsa, Russian-style borscht and mango chicken. As one who, like many, does suffer bouts of heartburn, I’ve come throughout few books that so efficaciously take the worry out of dining.
