About
I have over 30 years of experience researching and cooking for food allergies and special diets. I believe in a holistic approach to health that deals with the whole person rather than treating symptoms. I truly believe you are what you eat.
In 2008, I created Don't Feed Me, LLC and launched or website www.dontfeedme.com in an effort to provide needed informaton for people with Celiac disease and various food allergies.

Story Behind The Book
At 14 months of age, my granddaughter Aivah was diagnosed with Celiac disease and a casein allergy. This began my long journey to finding healthy, nutritious gluten-free and dairy-free foods to feed a small child. This journey has been a road of trial and error, littered with some really bad food and many successful recipes. This cookbook is perfect for those new to the gluten-free, dairy-free lifestyle.
Reviews
<p>A book that helps people wade through the daunting prospect of going gluten-free is a wonderful resource to have. There are wonderful recipes to try.<br /><br />Dr. Kevin Wand, D.O.<br />Midwest Wellness Center<br /><br /><br />By far the most informative and detailed description of gluten-free, dairy-free cooking. The recipes are simple and delicious, even if you're not gluten or dairy intolerant. However, if you are, after reading this book you will come away completely understanding these intolerances and allergies and know how to live a happy, health life.<br /></p>
<p>Erin Paulsen, B.A., M.S.<br /><br /><br />My son was diagnosed with Autism in 2004 and we have been following a gluten-free and casein-free diet since 2008 with success. It was a pleasure reviewing the Don't Feed Me book as Joyce has taken the time to research the information, understand the trials of a GFCF diet and pass along her personal insight. Due to necessity, she is dedicated to the book and the other Don't Feed Me products. Thank you, Joyce.</p>
