For years, Elisabeth Hasselbeck couldn't figure out what was making her sick. She asked doctors and consulted nutritionists, but no one seemed to have any answers. It wasn't until spending time in the Australian Outback, living off the land on the grueling Survivor TV show, that, ironically, her symptoms vanished. Returning home, she pinpointed the food that made her sick -- gluten, the binding element in wheat. By simply eliminating it from her diet, she was able to enjoy a completely normal, healthy life. But that wasn't all. Hasselbeck discovered the myriad benefits that anyone can enjoy from a gluten-free diet: from weight loss and increased energy to even the alleviation of the conditions of autism.

In this all-inclusive book, Hasselbeck shares her hard-earned wisdom on living life without gluten and loving it. She gives you everything you need to know to start living a gluten-free life, from defining gluten - where to find it, how to read food labels - to targeting gluten-free products, creating G-Free shopping lists, sharing recipes, and managing G-Free living with family and friends.

Thank you Elisabeth for doing so much of the foot work and research for us. I am recommending this book to many friends . . . and strangers . . . as a responsible and earnest effort to bring this simple "cure" of so many symptoms of ill-health, to light. To think that taking ONE thing out of my diet has eliminated 5 or 6 MAJOR physical complaints some subtle psychological complaints, is just wonderful. I only wish I had followed advice much earlier.
Can't force folks to think that one thing out of their diet can change their entire life . . . people need to really want to get well and feel good. When they do . . . this little book is a great little guide with full support and help from Dr Peter Green, who specializes in Gluten free health. I recommend this easy little book. Clear and uncomplicated. ~

Pretty interesting and easy to read as someone just wanting to reduce overall wheat consumption. The advice I found most helpful was (a) eat before you go to a party, and (b) figure out how to politely decline foods you don't want to eat. I gave up wheat for a month (I lost about 5 pounds after a week). It's hard to give it up because wheat is in almost everything; however, it opened my eyes to the foods I was eating that have all kinds of weird ingredients. I starting asking myself: Why am I putting this in my body if I can't even pronounce most of the ingredients?

Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2009
I found the book to be very positive. I was diagnosed nearly 4 years ago and have done a lot of research - this book didn't really tell me anything new. But, her outlook on life was very positive and can really make a difference in someone who is newly diagnosed (or struggling). She shows that mistakes (getting glutened) can happen and you're not a failure (no matter how bad you feel). It truly is about finding what you CAN eat, and not feeling sorry for yourself about what you can't eat. There are substitutes out there for nearly everything - they may not be identical or as good, but again, it's about what you can have. Her list of what you can eat is helpful.

It is a little annoying to hear her call it an allergy - but when out in restaurant, I have done that as it is more of a red flag than an intolerance (which they see as similar to lactose intolerant)... an allergy they see as you may go into anaphylaxic shock if you eat it.

There are many different viewpoints than what she poses (e.g., using shampoo with wheat as you don't ingest it)... but I think she covers off on them really well.

I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because I think she had a great opportunity to provide a little insight into pregnancy as a celiac who is complying with the diet - that was disappointing not to see. I know what can happen if you don't follow the diet... are there any additional risks that happen if you do follow the diet. With 2 pregnancies, she could have spoken to that a little bit.

Also, I didn't find the chapter on weight loss helpful at all. With the exception of myself (a former personal trainer), most celiacs I know have actually gained weight after diagnosis - due to the ability to finally retain nutrients and the fact that nearly all of the gluten free cookies and cakes (etc.) have a much higher calorie and fat count. They look to these items as comfort foods (they do taste good) and with one cookie having over 500 calories, you see how quickly it adds up. Portion control is key (which she covers off on - information on calories of the goodies would have been helpful though).

I would recommend this book, just thinking about these things.

I have been living with psoriasis for twenty years. After reading this book I have found the cure; Stay away from GLUTEN! I had been hearing a lot about gluten on the talk show, The View, and decided to read Elisabeth's book. Thank you SO MUCH for writing this book. I had no idea that gluten has been added to so many things we eat and drink. I do not have celiacs disease but I have been overloaded with gluten to the point that my skin was telling me that something was wrong. I knew it had to be food related when my skin cleared up after a thorough cleanse in preparation for a colonoscopy a few years ago. Little did I know that this one ingredient was the culprit. I recommend this book to everyone. You just might find help for yourself and your entire family. Too much gluten can cause a multitude of problems.

This book is a great beginner book for anyone dealing with Celiacs, gluten intolerance or a wheat allergy.
Having been a big fan ofElizabeth when she was on Survivor I was drawn to this book. I was recently diagnosed with Non-Celiacs Gluten Intolerance and have decided with my doctor that a gluten free diet is the way to go. I was looking for a handbook to get me started and this was it. Lacking (in a good way) a lot of the medical jargon found in other books on Celiacs this book was easy to read and helpful. I did find a lot of the advice to be trite and obvious but I am fairly well read especially on matters of food. For someone who has never even heard of Celiacs then she touches on all of the necessary points. Fortunately for Celiacs and others with gluten intolerance the food world has made huge strides since this book was published. It is due for an updated edition but is still a great resource for anyone looking for moreinformation on the topic.

This is an excellent guide to the G-free diet. Since discovering a wheat intolerance, life has been difficult to say the least - this book put it into perspective and helped me tremendously. I keep it by my side and use it to write my shopping lists! Couldn't be without it, from how to cope with the problems posed when diagnosed to practical tips for socialising without stress, highly recommended. Saved my sanity!

I bought this when I was investigating if my son has celiac disease. I tells you everything, from the challenges of getting diagnosed, not only which foods you can and cannot eat but also which body products contain gluten, to how to survive and raise awareness amongst others to get more gluten free choice in the shops. Well done and thanks Elizabeth!
