The Fiber Fueled Cookbook is for those seeking to embrace a high-fiber diet even while being mindful of FODMAP, Alpha-Gal, histamine sensitivities, and more. This cookbook goes beyond mere recipes; it's a guide to transforming health through diet.
For individuals struggling with IBS or other digestive concerns, this book provides an array of choices that are gentle on the digestive system and rich in nutrients. The recipes are crafted to avoid high FODMAP ingredients while delivering flavor and variety, making it a valuable resource for those on a restrictive diet.
For those dealing with Alpha-Gal syndrome, the cookbook offers meat alternatives. The plant-based focus not only aligns with the dietary restrictions necessitated by Alpha Gal but also encourages a wholesome approach to eating. The recipes are designed to be satisfying and nourishing, ensuring that the absence of certain meats does not diminish the culinary experience.
Additionally, the book's consideration of histamine intolerance is a standout feature, or maybe I haven't been looking in the right places. Histamine-related dietary restrictions can be challenging, but this cookbook offers a range of low-histamine recipes. While I haven't tried all of these recipes, the ones I have tried are tasty.
This is more than just a collection of recipes; it's a thoughtful and inclusive guide to healthy eating, especially for those navigating the complexities of eating restrictions.

After reading Fiber Fueled, I was interested to see more recipes that would support my goal of eating a diversity of plants. While there are roughly 100 recipes in this book, a good chunk of it is devoted to helping people with particularly food sensitivities, as well as deep dives on fermentation and sprouting techniques. I didn't particularly want or need this information, and wish that there were even more recipes on offer, but I can see the information being VERY helpful to a lot of people.
I promised myself I wouldn't review a cookbook without trying at least one recipe, so I made the Very Veggie Soup, and it was EXCELLENT. (Even though I used boxed veggie stock and didn't make my own low-histamine Biome Broth!) I'm excited to try more; I like that they have accessible ingredients (the most exotic being things like nutritional yeast or pink peppercorns) and aren't overly time-consuming or complicated.
If you simply want a cookbook of vegan recipes, this one may be a bit too niche to fit the bill. But if you want a good companion to Fiber Fueled or have sensitivities to FODMAPs or histamine, this would be an excellent addition to your cookbook collection.
