ReviewsCookbook author and health advocate Walker ( Against All Grain , 2013) offers this prime example of a conversational memoir. It reads as if a friend is sharing a deeply personal story, and in this case readers will be all ears. Walker is an absolute health cheerleader, and her enthusiasm catapults off the page: she is on a mission to spread the news that diet can indeed improve wellbeing. Walker shares her experiences with severe gastrointestinal issues that threatened her life. Her journey has not been an easy one, and there are losses and frightening moments along the way, but ultimately this is a story of loving food and family, accepting support, and understanding self-worth. Resources toward the end of the book include a note, written by Walker's husband, for caregivers; an index of grain-free and Paleo foods; and a grocery list to start readers on their journey to a happier gut and therefore a happier life. Anyone who has struggled with balancing their diet will benefit from this inspiring memoir.

When doctors told Danielle Walker that food didn't cause her autoimmune disease and couldn't help control it, she set out to prove them wrong. Diagnosed with an extreme form of ulcerative colitis at 22, Danielle was terrified she'd never be able to eat all the wonderful, great-tasting foods she loved growing up or host warm, welcoming gatherings with family and friends. So when the medicine she was prescribed became almost as debilitating as the disease itself, Danielle took matters into her own hands, turned her kitchen into a laboratory, and set to work creating gut-healthy versions of the foods she thought she'd never be able to enjoy again. Three New York Times bestselling cookbooks later, Danielle has become a beacon of hope for millions around the world suffering from autoimmune diseases, food allergies, and chronic ailments.Now for the first time, with stunning transparency about the personal toll her illness took on her physically, emotionally, and spiritually, Danielle reflects on everything she's learned during her decade-long journey toward healing--including the connection between gut health and overall well-being, the development of her favorite recipes, and the keys for not simply surviving her autoimmune disease but thriving despite it. Through her resilience, Danielle tells a story that provides hope --hope that despite your ailments or hardships, you can live a full, happy, and healthy life without ever feeling excluded or deprived.Food saved Danielle Walker.
