  Allergies are becoming increasingly common among both children and adults, and the link to our diet has become more apparent. As a result of their own food 'challenges', Chupi and Luke Sweetman had to re-think the way that they ate. With advice from nutritionist Patricia Quinn, they came up with a variety of healthy, nutritious but above all, incredibly tasty recipes aimed at allergy sufferers and non-sufferers alike. 'What to eat when you can't eat anything' is a cookbook for everybody, with a really practical approach to managing diets that can be seen initially by sufferers or their families as a challenge. Written as it is by two young people, it is unlike most other allergy cookbooks in that it is fun - with recipes such as Pancakes with Sweet Honey and Bitter Lemon and Cheese-Butty Chilli Sarnie, it is not for the faint of heart! Each recipe is coded to indicate which allergy group can eat it, with all the common allergies covered: candida, dairy, coeliacs, sugar and certain additives. Sections will include information on how to change to a really green diet without pain; what to stock and how to buy; an A-Z of all the foodstuffs and their nutritional values and the tools of the trade. All the recipes have been cooked and tested by hungry teenagers Chupi and Luke and their mother Rosita and have passed with flying colours!
