I bought this book to help my husband who has inflammation issues. I myself have a gluten allergy and have been gluten free for many years. This is the first cookbook that I’ve purchased that I really LOVE. As of this writing, I’ve made 18 of theses recipes so far that are delicious. And some that I’ve already repeated. I love the fact that meat recipes are included. It’s not just for vegetarians or vegans. Most of the meat recipes are for fish and chicken, with a few for pork tenderloin, 1 ground beef and 1 steak. Also, almost every recipe is gluten free. And those that are not, have a tip to make them gluten free. For instance, swapping out regular pasta for gluten free, or gluten free toast for whole wheat. Another great feature is that all of these recipes are easy, and except for spices, have only 5 easy to find ingredients. No fancy expensive ingredients to buy. I like that the book gives you a 2week meal plan with a shopping list and an optional weekly prep guide. It’s very well laid out and easy to follow. However, because there are a few recipes with ingredients that I don’t like (beets for instance), I decided not to follow the weekly meal plans at first. Instead I picked out a few recipes I wanted to try, and kept a list of the ones that we really liked as we tried them. For the recipes we didn’t like, which were only a few, we substituted a recipe we did like. This allowed us to make our own meal plan. The beginning of this book explains inflammation and gives you a list of foods to enjoy, foods to consider with care, and foods to avoid. This book focuses on healthy fats, gluten free grains, veggies, low sugar fruits, seeds, legumes and anti-inflamatory spices like turmeric, ginger, rosemary and more.
So, has it helped my husband with his inflammation issues? It sure has. He has bad shoulder issues and following this diet has given him a greater range of motion in the shoulder and a lot less pain throughout the day. For me, I’ve discovered that having less dairy (can anyone say cheese please!) has helped me feel less bloated and I’ve lost a little weight.
Here are my top pros & cons.
Pros:
Gluten free
Easy recipes that don’t involve a lot of hard to find ingredients and are quick to make
The book is well laid out
High hit-rate of great tasting recipes
Includes both a recipe index and a full index
Priced right
Cons:
Wish it came in a spiral bound version (but mine has held up very well so far)
There are some pictures but could have included more
A few of the breakfast recipes were bland, so stick to the ones you try that you like

I like the information in the book, it is straightforward and easy to understand. The recipes seem easy as well, so that's a plus!
The format is not as advertised, though. In the Amazon listing, there were photos of recipe pages with pictures of ingredients for the recipe in the margins. I am a very visual person, and this omission makes this book infinitely less usable to me. I would not have bought it if I had known the recipes had no pictures.
The quality of the printing is also not great, it looks like someone printed this out on their inkjet at home. Overall, I'm going to keep it, but I'll be looking for another cookbook in the meantime.
*Update: the formatting discrepancy was Amazon's fault. They have photos of recipe pages from "The Easy Anti-inflammatory Diet." If you look closely at the bottom of the recipe pages, it says The Easy Anti-inflammatory Diet, and you can also see these same photos in the product description of this book.
