Self-Help Health
The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness estimates that
as many as one in 133 Americans has celiac disease.
Unfortunately, 83 percent of people who have this terrible
disease are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed—suffering through
years of pain and misunderstanding. Award-winning actress
Jennifer Esposito was one of those 83 percent, receiving an
accurate diagnosis only after decades of mysterious
illnesses and myriad misdiagnoses. Now Jennifer shares her riveting personal journey—from her
earliest memories of her childhood in Brooklyn to her years
as a young actress, all the while suffering from
unexplained, devastating ailments. Jennifer's struggle to
finally receive an accurate diagnosis is one that anyone who
has a chronic disease will share. But this is more than a
story of suffering. It is the story of one woman's valiant
journey to take charge of her health and rebuild her life. Not only will you learn from Jennifer's personal story, the
book also guides you through early diagnosis, sharing the
steps that helped Jennifer heal. Plus, you'll find recipes
she uses at home, along with recipes for some of the
delicious treats she offers at her own gluten-free bakery,
Jennifer's Way, in New York. For anyone struggling with a chronic illness, Jennifer's Way
is proof that you can find an answer to what is wrong with
you, that you shouldn't stop until you find it, and that you
can learn how to truly live again.
