This eBook is to share with everyone the knowledge and experience I have gained through caring for my 2 children born with G6PDD. Over 8 years go when my daughter was born there was very little practical, useful information available anywhere for people with this condition and the real facts are still hard to find. The book’s main content is on foods and substances that must be avoided, it contains information on alternative food and safe substances as well as the recipes we use on a day to day basis to insure our family's health and overall wellbeing.
People with G6PDD need to be on a restricted diet of mainly fresh wholesome unprocessed foods. Our recipes cover food for infants to adults including.

-Desserts, including ice cream and confectionery
-Sauces, salad dressings, homemade condiments, cheeses, meats, seafood's and baked goods
-Gluten free flours for biscuits, breads, pastry and pasta

To help in understanding this condition and how it affects our body, I have included some useful dietary information and a brief description or explanation of some of the terms used such as, Proteins, Fats, Calories, Carbohydrates, Cholesterol, Vitamins and Minerals.
The recipes in this book have been developed to ensure my family has a well balanced, wholesome diet without complications triggered by consuming foods and substances that affect their g6pdd.

This book covers the things we do and the foods we make from scratch to insure our children enjoy a long healthy normal life.
