Editorial Review: Product Description: Hepatitis C is a potentially fatal virus that attacks the liver. According to the Centers for Disease Control, Hepatitis C has already infected an estimated four to five million Americans, and worldwide it may have infected as many as 200 million. Most experts agree that if the rate of Hepatitis C infection isnt curbed soon, it will eventually kill more people each year than AIDS. However, Hepatitis C is not always fatal, and it can be fought successfully. For many who suffer from the virus, eating properly can delay the end stages leading to cirrhosis of the liver. It also can diminish the uncomfortable symptoms of the disease. The Hepatitis C Cookbook has been prepared with the special dietary needs of people suffering from Hepatitis C in mind. Hepatitis C does not have to make eating a miserable experience. By using medical guidelines, the Hepatitis C Cookbook provides a road map to healthy, tasty foods to eat and enjoy. Following these dietary changes can also make a significant difference in ones attitude as well as the variety, severity, and frequency of symptoms. All of these considerations can enhance the quality of life for anyone suffering from the disease. All of the recipes are based on the dietary guidelines provided by the medical profession for Hepatitis C. They also have been tested by Hepatitis C patients. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Hepatitis C CookbookIt will help me some what. My boyfriend has galstones and pancreatitis along with cirrosis of the liver so I was hoping for more recipes without onions or mushrooms. Rating:  - great recipesGave me something to go by for my cooking since I recently found out I have Hep C. She uses dairy products and that is not good for those with liver disease. So I just substitute the dairy with soy. Rating:  - Hepatitis C CookbookThis author puts extreme stress on food being of organic origins, and reducing intake of red meats. Unfortunately she loads recipes with whole milk, cream and butter. The butterfat in these products are is unhealthful as eating meat fat. They should be limited in all diets, but especially in foods prepared for people with liver damage. Rating: - Hepatitis C cookbookWonderfully put together. Easy to read and understand. This person knows from experience what she is talking about. Really helped me as a Hep C sufferer! I would reccommend this book to anyone who has Hep C or has a friend or family member who does. I have never seen anything like it! THANK YOU.
