- The Anti-Inflammatory Cookbook – Chrissy Freer
Chronic inflammation is on the increase leading to common symptoms such as fatigue and joint pain, even in young people.

The good news is that including anti-inflammatory foods in your diet can help reduce the risk of chronic inflammation and promote well-being. These gluten-free recipes have been created especially for their anti-inflammatory effect. Many are also vegetarian or vegan, dairy- and nut-free, making it easy to cater to differing needs. This delicious range of everyday meals, suitable for all occasions and members of the family, makes the journey to better health easy and enjoyable.
