Easy to use:
Easy to follow, but very plain recipes...but if you are on the IC diet already then you will be used to it and enjoy this book.
A must for people with IC:
A must read for people diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis. A comprehensive explanation of the disease and other related diseases. Great explanations of foods that are safe and troublesome. Although I have not made any of the recipes yet, they do look good with easy to get ingredients.
The best IC book I have purchased:
I was diagnosed with IC 3 years ago. I joined the IC Association and buy books they suggest and other items. I could not put this book down. It answered alot of my questions.
