The SIBO Cookbook For The Newly Diagnosed: The Complete Guide to Relieving Symptoms and Preventing Recurrence

Review of 'The SIBO Cookbook for the Newly Diagnosed' by an Eco farm gal who has Endo.
So Far the Recipes aren't That Great
The SIBO Cookbook For The Newly Diagnosed:The Complete Guide to Relieving Symptoms and Preventy Recurrence by Kristy Regan

I'm following a combination of The Endometriosis Health and Diet Program: Get Your Life Back by Dr. Andrew, Cook MS RD CDE and The Paleo Approach: Reverse Autoimmune Disease and Heal Your Body by Sarah Ballantyne, plus avoiding FODMAPs that I know I'm sensitive too. Both doctors mention SIBO. In Dr. Cook's book he indicated that a high percentage of his patents with Endometriosis also tested positive for SIBO. Knowing this, I decided to get this book by Kristy Regan.

While the book is somewhat informative, I find books by Dr. Ballantyne and Cook to be much more informative and helpful. To be fair, this is 'The SIBO Cookbook', so I didn't expect it to be packed with info. The number one thing I was looking for, was the recipes. Following a combination of Low FODMAPs and Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) type of diet for Endo leaves me with many restrictions. Even so, I did find a few recipes I could make and so I did. The results were, "meh".

Recipes I Tried:

Orange Carrot Puree
The texture of this was smooth and wonderful. The taste was a bit off putting. I believe it was the amount of orange. It added an aftertaste that I found very unappealing. If I decide to give this another chance, I will not add the orange ingredients. If you are wondering, I love citrus, including oranges. I also love carrots. This combo just didn't work for me.

Sardine Spread
I'm always searching for new ways to eat fish as it is my number one protein source. I'm not a fan of the little fish like sardines and anchovies, so anything to make them a bit more appealing is a win to me. This recipe wasn't too bad. I made plantain crackers to go with it (the recipe is from one of Dr. Ballantyne's AIP cookbooks). I wish I loved it, but I didn't. It did provide a nice healthy snack while waiting for Thanksgiving and Yuletide dinner to be ready. I will probably make it again because it's good for me, I just wish I found it wonderful rather than just okay.

Tapenade Compound Butter
I made this using real butter from my own 100% grass fed Jersey cow. So far, this is my favorite recipe. It also uses a little fish (anchovy paste). She recommends having this with steak. I tried that, it was good. But overkill. I love a good steak with a wee sprinkle of black salt and nothing else - perfection. Good thing the Tapenade Compound Butter can be used on pretty much anything else!

I held onto this book for a while and found many of the recipes to be disappointing. In the end I decided not to keep it. The recipes in my AIP books by DR. Ballantyne (I have them all) are so much more enjoyable. It is rare that I pick one of her recipes and don't like it. On top of that, my husband even likes the recipes which is a huge win.

    Do you dream about living the simple life?  Your own idyllic farm where the cows moo and the veggies are the best you've ever eaten? I've got a surprise for you, homesteading isn't easy! Join me at my small eco family farm where we stumble often, and learn as we go. This is indeed the good life, but it is also a very hard life that only rewards for that hard work... or not!  Back to the land, it's tough and I love it.Hi there! My name is Jen. I'm a "tree hugging dirt worshiper" who has been organically farming for well over a decade. It never ceases to amaze me at how much I've learned & how much I am still learning. I have studied natural health, nutrition, & herbs for over two decades. Our health & the natural world around us are connected in ways we don't often realize. How we treat the land & animals directly affects us in both body & mind. My goal is to provide others with truly natural humane goods from my own little piece of paradise, & to freely pass along whatever knowledge I pick up along the way. I am grateful every day to be able to have such a worthwhile & fulfilling job surrounded by the beauty & unpredictability of Mother Nature.
