| Publisher Description: A Dietitian-Approved, Customizable Food Plan to Combat Iron Overload Also known as "iron overload" or "bronze diabetes," hemochromatosis is one of the most common genetic disorders in the US. With no known cure and life-sapping symptoms, such as fatigue, joint pain, heart abnormalities, and skin discoloration, it can lead to very serious medical conditions and is without question a life-altering diagnosis. Living Well with Hemochromatosis is a friendly guide to taming your symptoms by taking total control of your diet. It offers an easy-to-understand overview of micronutrients, tips and tricks for identifying high-iron foods and limiting absorption, stories from others living with hemochromatosis, and simple and delicious recipes. From carnivores to vegans, this book offers something for all lifestyles. Recipes span from salads, side dishes, entrees, and smoothies, each with nutritional analysis. |
