‘In the past twenty years of medical practice I have seen hundreds of patients with an apparently simple problem — they are intolerant of common foods, particularly wheat and sugar. It is a difficult, if not impossible task, for people with food allergies to find tasty, alternative recipes.
This book will be a godsend. It is accessible, well-organised and enticing. I give it my highest stamp of approval.’ Dr Robert Rountree ‘I highly recommend these recipes to my patients, and not only to anyone with food allergies or diabetes, but also to those who are health-conscious and are looking to use less refined sweeteners and better quality grains in their diet.’ Barb Schiltz, RN, MS, Nutrition Consultant

About the Author
Beverley Southam grew up in a small seaside town in Australia, one of six children. Due to lack of money, the family’s survival depended on the fruits and vegetables grown in the large back garden, catching fresh fish and trapping rabbits. Her mother was an excellent cook and Beverley and her sisters had to help out in the kitchen, getting family meals. Her mother and grandmother had a great influence on her cullinary skills.
Beverley married early, had two children who seemed to be constantly ill especially her son, Daniel who, the doctors claimed, was ‘failing to thrive’. Then she lost her mother at 57, so she wanted answers as to why these illnesses wouldn’t go away. She read and researched, and overcame great ill health by changing what the family ate. The information she uncovered along the way, she wants to pass on to those in need. Her daughter, Rebecca, is now a Naturopath, and a great supporter of Beverley’s book.
A Primitive Diet contains many of the recipes upon which she raised her family over the past 27 years. They are easy, delicious recipes, with a gourmet flavour but leaving out the ingredients causing allergies and illness. Today she and her husband, Geoff, live a simple life on a small farm, where they grow organic fruits and vegetables for their organic wholefood store.
