Supporting Material for Proven
Writing a book is never straightforward — and writing a system change is something else entirely. This one began as 100,000 words and was edited down to 60,000. That's a normal part of the process, and yet for years after any book is published, readers ask: what about this? What about that? And they're right to ask.
Proven™ is not a normal book. It is a clinical intervention disguised as a baking manual, and because of that, there is a great deal more to it than the pages you hold in your hands. Within the book you'll find forms — spaces designed for you to return to, to repeat with a family member, to share. These aren't incidental. They are the mechanism by which you prove the system to yourself.
We have deliberately created a large body of supporting material to accompany the book. Extra resources, deeper reading, downloadable forms you can print, fold, and tuck into the back pages — much as my grandmother used to tuck torn-out magazine pages and handwritten recipes into her favourite books. I encourage you to do the same. Please have a pencil to hand. Write in your book. Make it yours.
The interaction doesn't stop at the last page. It continues on this website.
A note worth making here: this is also a teaching website. If you explore it, you will find that the knowledge runs deep — far deeper than the book alone can carry. Much of that teaching material sits behind a firewall, forming part of our professional and diploma-level programmes. You are very welcome to look around, and equally welcome to get in touch if something sparks a question. We'd love to hear from you.
What you hold is not simply a recipe book. It is a dynamic tool for assessing how you feel, how your body responds, and ultimately for proving — to yourself — that bread made this way makes a difference.
