Food Allergy E-Book News: The NEW Nut-Free Mom: A Crash Course in Caring for Your Nut-Allergic Child

Posted: 13 Feb 2012 08:39 AM PST

I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my first e-book today! It's been literally years in the making, since I've drawn on my own experiences parenting a child with nut allergies. You can buy it at Amazon.com--it's downloadable to your Kindle or PC.

So many readers of this blog and my Nut-Free Mom Facebook page have the same concerns and questions and this book puts the key information that you want in the same place, in an easy-to-follow, concise and upbeat format.

This is a parenting how-to and lifestyle guide, not a medical book, although working with your allergist is discussed. This book picks up where the allergist leaves off, speaking parent to parent, about the challenges we face every day.

In this book, you'll discover how to:
make your home an "allergy-safe" zone;decipher confusing food labels and grocery shop for allergies; educate friends and family members and about nut allergy safety;vet restaurants and other eating establishments for possible pitfalls; make your environment as safe as possible while still enjoying all that life has to offer; talk to young children about allergies and help them to be positive and self-advocating; adapt to your family's new, nut-free way of life; nut-free resources, from foods to accessories; and more strategies to help you care for a nut-allergic child without going nuts in the process.

This is the book I wish I had when my daughter was first diagnosed. The book is specific with regard to peanut and tree nut allergy issues, but much of the book addresses the things parents go through when dealing with any food allergy.

Thanks to everyone who made this possible and for all the support I've received over the years from you, the readers of this blog and my NFM Facebook page! This one's for you.
