In her search for alternatives to heavy doses of steroid drugs, she was introduced to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Accepting the challenge of cooking without grains, refined sugars, or gluten, she began experimenting with the foods that were allowed. From these efforts, her almond-flour-baked-goods company, JK Gourmet, and Grain-Free Gourmet were spawned.   Jenny Lass was diagnosed with celiac disease in 2001. Already a freelance medical writer, she was inspired to combine her love of writing, science, and cooking to collaborate on Grain-Free Gourmet. Lass, a lifelong Torontonian, has an MA in medical geography from the University of Toronto and is a published poet.   The two met while driving to a potluck lunch for people with intestinal conditions on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD). They began to share the recipes that improved their health, and were amazed by how these dishes actually tasted better than the originals. They soon recognized that their passion for experimenting in the kitchen had created a repertoire that was healthy, delicious, and worth sharing with others.   Liz Lipski, PhD, CCN Is the host of the Access to Health Experts interview series.
