HarperCollins Cooking from the Spirit
Book SynopsisTrade Review“There’s no stopping the inimitable Tabitha Brown. . . . In her first cookbook, Brown’s spirit guides you through her family-approved, measurement-free (don’t worry, cook from the spirit!) recipes. Kick off your morning with TikTok-famous carrot bacon, serve up Philly Cheesefake Hoagies for lunch, and end the night with Country-Style Steak With Gravy.” — VegNews “Brown sandwiches pep talks and vegan recipes between anecdotes of a spiritual and at times supernatural ilk. . . . She treats every life experience as an opportunity to share a lesson learned . . . always bolstered by the same authentic, sincere joy that has made her a hit on TikTok.” — Time on Feeding the Soul “Brown . . . makes people feel good, makes them think, makes them laugh, and calms them down. Feeding the Soul delivers on its title. It’s a great read for when you need a soul pick-me-up, a life pep talk, or simply something to reflect on.” — Shondaland “[Tabitha Brown is] a master at feeding viewers’ souls with her inspirational messages of hope and positive affirmations of self-love.” — People.com “This [book is] sprinkled with Brown’s infectious energy as she shares some of the wisdom that she picked up along her journey, and of course, a few vegan recipes!” — IndieWire on Feeding the Soul “If you’ve ever found yourself drawn to shifting to a vegan diet—whether for health or ethical reasons—then you probably know of the shining light that is Tabitha Brown. Her stunning [book] details what it was like to go from an aspiring actress to a woman who decided to do what was best for her body and soul. Full of personal stories and some of Brown’s beloved catchphrases, readers are sure to walk away from this read feeling seen, loved, and heard. And if not, well then that’s your business *wink*.” — Sheknows.com on Feeding the Soul “When Brown—dubbed ‘America’s Mom’—isn’t posting adorable videos that show her dancing with excitement over vegan garlic-parm croutons, she’s being cast in some of Hollywood’s biggest series (such as Showtime’s The Chi) and being invited onto top talk shows (from Ellen to The Drew Barrymore Show). And though Tinseltown can’t seem to get enough of this Southern belle, it’s Brown’s groundedness and unrelenting commitment to being her authentic self that points to why she is so damn beloved.” — VegNews on Feeding the Soul

Random House USA Inc Deliciously GFree
Book SynopsisFrom the author of The G-Free Diet and the co-host of ABC’s The View comes a vital book about scrumptiously satisfying gluten free food—with easy-to-follow recipes, healthy tips, and full-color photographs throughout—for families managing celiac disease as well as anyone who is concerned about their intake of wheat and other grains.Growing up in a family where everyone came together at the dinner table, Elizabeth Hasselbeck savored the signature meatball, lasagna, and ziti dishes of her grandmother and great-grandmother, and the pierogies of her father’s heritage. But a decade ago, the Emmy Award–winning co-host of The View, New York Times bestselling author, and mother of three was diagnosed with celiac disease, and the family recipes she grew up with suddenly became strictly off-limits. Or so she thought. Getting rid of gluten, however, doesn’t have to mean giving up taste. Deliciously G-

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Food Allergen Testing
Book SynopsisAn in-depth review of the current scientific knowledge on food allergens testing, covering the major methodologies and techniques used to detect food allergens. Food allergens are a series of agents, mainly proteins, which cause various unpleasant and sometimes clinical symptoms in humans through consumption of foods. Perhaps surprisingly, there are no treatments against food allergies which have been found to be 100% effective. The scope for individual difference in terms of how a person reacts to a given allergen is massive, making it incredibly difficult and complex to try and medicate against allergies. Food Allergens Testing takes a thorough look at modern molecular biology and immunochemical techniques used to detect food allergens. The eleven chapters constitute an in-depth review of the current scientific knowledge on food allergens, covering the major methodologies and techniques used in validated analytical approaches. The book is aimed aTable of ContentsList of contributors ix 1 Introduction 1 Dimosthenis Kizis and George Siragakis 1.1 Adverse reactions to food 1 1.2 Manifestation mechanisms and symptoms of food allergy 2 1.3 Diagnosis and treatment of food allergy 3 1.4 Food allergy prevalence 4 1.5 Allergenic foods: an increasing list 4 1.6 Methods for food allergen detection 5 References 9 2 Immunodiagnostics in food allergen testing 13 Jennifer Anne Rice and Anthony Joseph Lupo 2.1 Immunoassays for detection of food allergens 14 2.2 Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) 15 2.3 Lateral-flow devices (LFDs) 17 2.4 Antibodies utilized in immunoassays 19 2.5 Sampling and extraction methods for immunoassays 21 2.6 Limitations of immunoassays 23 2.7 Commercial immunoassays for allergen detection in food 23 2.8 Conclusion 27 References 27 3 Molecular testing for food allergens 29 Terence Lok Ting Lau 3.1 Nucleic-acid amplification methods 30 3.2 Food allergen testing by PCR 33 3.3 DNA extraction from food samples 36 3.4 Establishing a food allergen PCR test 38 3.5 DNA testing and food allergen management 44 3.6 Conclusion 44 References 45 4 LC–MS/MS techniques for food allergen testing 49 Manos Christofakis and Aglaia Xila 4.1 Introduction to analytical techniques and allergen testing 50 4.2 Food sample preparation techniques 52 4.3 Liquid chromatography techniques 56 4.4 Implementation of LC–MS/MS techniques in allergen detection 60 4.5 Evaluation of LC–MS/MS methodologies 60 4.6 Conclusion 63 References 63 5 Detection of animal allergens in foods 67 Katerina Rizou 5.1 Introduction 67 5.2 Food allergens of animal origin 69 5.3 Egg 69 5.4 Milk 76 5.5 Fish, crustaceans, molluscs 84 Acknowledgements 92 References 92 6 Detection of plant allergens in foods 105 Dimosthenis Kizis 6.1 Introduction 105 6.2 Determination of plant allergens in foods 106 6.3 Future prospects 123 References 127 7 Gluten testing in foods, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics 151 Joanna Leszczynska, Iwona Majak and Adrian Bartos 7.1 Allergy and intolerance to wheat proteins 151 7.2 The permissible dose of gluten 153 7.3 Structure of wheat proteins 154 7.4 Changes in gluten structure during technological processing 156 7.5 Immunological methods for gluten determination 157 7.6 PCR methods 164 7.7 Other methods 168 7.8 Determination of gluten content in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics 170 References 173 8 Food allergen testing in alcoholic and other beverages 185 Rebecca Kokkinofta and George Siragakis 8.1 Alcohol allergy 185 8.2 Detection of allergens in wine 186 8.3 Facing beer allergy 190 8.4 Nonalcoholic beverages and allergy 192 8.5 Conclusion 194 References 194 9 Allergens in the food industry: customer and legislation demands 197 Antonis Lampidonis and George Siragakis 9.1 Food allergy: a worldwide problem 197 9.2 Consumers' demands on food allergy 198 9.3 Food allergy management 200 9.4 Legislation and labelling guide 203 9.5 New EU food labelling rules 208 9.6 Food allergen regulatory thresholds 210 9.7 Conclusion 211 References 212 10 Reference materials for food allergen testing 215 Sandor Tomoskozi, Kitti Torok, Zsuzsanna Bugyi and Lyvia Hajas 10.1 Regulatory environment of food allergens 215 10.2 Reference materials and the related problems 218 10.3 Availability of reference materials – current commercial possibilities and scientific efforts 220 10.4 Practical application of reference materials 227 10.5 Development of an incurred reference material containing gliadin – a case study 229 10.6 Conclusion 232 Acknowledgements 233 References 233 11 Proficiency schemes for food allergen testing 237 Charalampos Alexopoulos, Elias Kakoulides and Evgenia Lampi 11.1 Introduction – food allergens 237 11.2 Methods for the detection of food allergens 237 11.3 Interlaboratory comparisons and proficiency-testing schemes 250 11.4 Proficiency-testing schemes for food allergen determinations 258 11.5 Conclusion/discussion 264 Acknowledgements 264 References 265 Index 273

Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc The Peanut Allergy Answer Book, 3rd Ed.
Book SynopsisA revised and updated version of the definitive peanut allergy book. Since the second edition of The Peanut Allergy Answer Book was published in 2006, much additional research has been published in the field of peanut allergy and anaphylaxis, including new diagnostic tests and new vaccines and therapies, including oral desensitization and human trials for Chinese herbal medication. New information has emerged on the risk factors for the development of peanut allergy during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and in infant diets, which has led to a paradigm shift in how we think about what to eat and what to avoid. National guidelines for the management of food allergies from the National Institutes of Health were published in 2010. In addition, there has been a great increase in public awareness of the societal impact of peanut allergy such as in schools and childcare facilities, in restaurants, and the food industry. This has led to the publication of national guidelines by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for school management of food allergies and anaphylaxis, The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Management Act of 2011, School Access to Emergency Epinephrine Act, and legislation for restaurant guidelines for food-allergic consumers. The incidence of peanut allergies has tripled in the past ten years and continues to increase, yet the present management of peanut allergy remains largely preventive through avoidance and education. The Peanut Allergy Answer Book, 3rd Edition, contains more than 50% new material, including new chapters such as "Is Early Avoidance of Peanut Good or Bad?"; "Should the Sibling of a Child with Peanut Allergy Avoid Peanuts?"; "Should I Avoid Eating Peanuts and Other Allergenic Foods while Breastfeeding?"; and "At What Age Should Peanuts and Nuts Be Introduced into the Child's Diet?"
