Guidelines for a Gluten-Free Lifestyle 4th Edition
This guide was my "bible" for sleuthing food labels at the grocery store, when my son was first diagnosed with celiac disease 10 years ago. One section that I find particularly valuable is the list of all the gluten-free additives and preservatives that you might encounter on a food label. They are listed in alphabetical order.
