Our Reviewer Says...
"While the diet sounds restrictive at first glance, there are entire food groups that are naturally gluten-free. If you're addicted to breads and bagels, the G-Free Diet will surely be hard to swallow, but you can still enjoy several gluten-free grains without guilt."At a Glance
Millions of people suffer from gluten intolerance, which can result in medical reactions ranging from temporary fatigue and depression to high cholesterol, arthritis and chronic autoimmune conditions, such as celiac disease. Common signs that a person is among the three million Americans who might have a gluten allergy include an upset stomach, ulcers, headaches, bloating and abdominal pain, anxiety or depression, skin rashes, mouth sores, muscle cramps or joint pain. But gluten appears in many carbohydrate-rich diets (think wheat, barley, oats, rye, most breads and pizza) and can be nearly impossible to detect unless you begin painstakingly scrutinizing labels and avoiding most gluten sources. Celeb author Elizabeth Hasselbeck adeptly does it for you, breaks down the most frustrating information into manageable bites to provide new hope to all food allergy sufferers.
