Product Description
It has been estimated that over 7.5% of the U.S. population lives dairy-free, yet so few resources cater to this expansive and diverse group. To aid this niche, Alisa Fleming founded the informational website GoDairyFree.org in 2004, and produced the limited edition guidebook Dairy Free Made Easy in 2006, which quickly sold out. Back by popular demand, Alisa has updated and expanded her guide to address additional FAQs and to include an expansive cookbook section. Within this complete dairy-free living resource, you will discover ... Over 225 Delicious Dairy-Free Recipes with numerous options to satisfy dairy cravings, while focusing on naturally rich and delicious whole foods. A Comprehensive Guide to Dairy Substitutes which explains how to purchase, use, and prepare alternatives for butter, cheese, cream, milk, and much more, from scratch. Grocery Shopping Information from suspect ingredients lists and label-reading assistance to food suggestions and money-saving tips. A Detailed Calcium Chapter to identify calcium-rich foods and supplements and understand other factors involved in building and maintaining strong bones. An In-Depth Health Section that explains dairy, details the signs and symptoms of various dairy-related illnesses, and thoroughly addresses protein, fat, and nutrient issues in the dairy-free transition. Everyday Living Tips with suggestions for skincare, supplements, store-bought foods, restaurant dining, travel, celebrations, and other social situations. Infant Milk Allergy Checklists that go into detail on signs, symptoms, and solutions for babies with milk allergies or intolerances. Multiple Food Allergy and Vegan-Friendly Resources including a recipe index to quickly reference which recipes are vegan and which are free from soy, eggs, wheat, gluten, peanuts, and/or tree nuts.

Great Book and Guide by Justine Hampton (Hendersonville, TN) 5 Stars
November 23, 2009
Really, this book is not just for someone who wants to go dairy free, I feel like this book can be used by anyone. The over 225 recipes are great for all people even those with food allergies (egg, soy, wheat, gluten, nut, etc), vegans, vegetarians, people cutting back on dairy or just your average everyday cook or foodie. The book takes such a great approach and isn't trying to convince or persuade you to be dairy free its just stating the facts and is a great guide to help you start your dairy free or allergy free journey. All the chapters are laid out neatly addressing any concerns you may have about going dairy free such as calcium intake, infant and childhood allergies, health concerns related to dairy (acne, IBS, headaches), eating away from home and a million other things. I also think this book would make a great gift over the Holidays for any foodie or someone experiencing issues with food allergies. Grab a copy for you or a friend, you wont regret it!! :) ~Justine [...]

Go Dairy Free! A Great Book For Vegan or Non Vegan.. by Debra A. Garner (Nevada) 5 Stars
October 22, 2009
Go Dairy Free by Alisa Marie Fleming published by Fleming Ink. This book has a lot of great looking recipes in it but it also has a great introduction into dairy related allergies. Dairy causes so many problems. Most people just go through life suffering from increased mucus, sinus issues, headaches, acne, bladder troubles, plus many other maladies and don't even realize that cutting out dairy could relieve them of all symptoms. My daughters recently cooked a couple of recipes from the book and they were complete hits. The pizza rolls were melt in your mouth good. We decided that the dough would be perfect for cinnamon rolls.. So that is on our list to try. They also made the Fudge Brownie Cookies which were eaten up in no time at all. We have declared these our official holiday cookies for the year. My girls love this book and have a running list of recipes to try in the future. As vegans we already believe that dairy free is the way to go, but this book is perfect for the non vegan as well. Those who are looking to cut down on the use of dairy will benefit greatly from this book.

Great information! by A. Muffett (Florida) 4 Stars
October 20, 2009
This book has TONS of great information! My daughter is allergic to caesin. This has been a helpful guide, telling all the little secrets of milk and where it is hidden. It has lots of great information for substitution and alternatives as well. It has many recepies for those people who don't want to miss out on milk. She has recepies for all those creamy favorites you don't want to do without. I was looking more for recepies that you can make without milk or a substitute. I haven't used any of the recepies but all the information inside about milk and how to get around it and where to look for it was well worth my money!!!

Go dairy free by Christy Daum (USA) 5 Stars
October 17, 2009
Excellent book! I recommend if you can't have any milk protein or lactose. Good all in one book describes lactose and gives you a better understanding and also teaches you to make different milks and butters without dairy proteins.

An Encyclopedia for Dairy Free Living by Margaret Snyder (Sunnyvale, CA) 5 Stars
September 25, 2009
Alisa's book begins with her own story. She was diagnosed in her 30s with a dairy allergy after experiencing severe health issues for years. It's quite shocking that it wasn't diagnosed earlier (read her story - you'll be amazed). Go Dairy Free is like an encyclopedia for dairy-free living. Any topic you could have a question about is covered. The first part of the book discusses the "health perspective" of dairy - why people think it's necessary, what's in it, how it's processed, disease information, allergies, and more. This part was well written and detailed. I found it incredibly interesting, and often found myself nodding in agreement. I've experienced many of the problems that she discusses (acne, bloating, etc...) but only recently have I attributed them to dairy. Next she offers a primer on how to start living dairy-free. Everything from tips for eating out, to helping kids be dairy-free, to stocking your kitchen, and a huge section on dairy substitutes. My favorite part though - the recipes. After the first few sections, I wanted to see suggestions for dairy-free meals! I don't eat much dairy at all (at this point it's only minimal cheese and the occasional ice cream), but I definitely get stuck in a rut with my meals. I've made a few of her recipes - the "Spicy Sweet Oven Fries" with a few different potato and squash varieties. They are delicious. I love new combinations of spices. Alisa is so creative! Her "Lively Lemon Stir-Fry" is fabulous. Stir-frys are my go-to meal and this one does not disappoint. The recipes section is huge - she has breakfasts, smoothies, snacks, breads, soups, sides, salads, meals, sauces, and desserts. Yum! This book is great not only for people with milk allergies, but other allergies as well. At the end of the book is an allergy index for all of her recipes that says whether they are vegan, egg-free, soy-free, gluten-free, wheat-free, nut-free, and peanut-free. How cool is that? One thing in particular that I loved about Go Dairy Free was the tone. It's not a crazed PETA publication, it's a helpful resource for people that can't eat dairy. Some people don't eat it because of an allergy, some for religious reasons, others for ethical reasons, etc... Every statement in this book is backed up with facts, and it is evident that Alisa spend an *incredible* amount of time on this book, all in an effort to help those of us with dairy issues! I highly recommend Go Dairy Free and the oodles of recipes it contains (many inspired or created by fellow bloggers!). I learned so much reading this book (I'm a science & health nerd) and I have gotten so many good ideas.
