Written with wry humor, and poignant prose, this is a unique memoir -- one of the first ever written from the perspective of someone suffering from non-celiac gluten sensitivity. When Delise Dickard was a little girl she began her first story: "Once upon a time..." She never imagined then that the main character in her first published book would be a protein composite called "gluten." She never imagined her journey would bring her to interview world-renowned, scientific experts on the human gut. And once upon a time, she never thought she'd write a book that would find humor in her gastrointestinal malfunctions, her abdominal pain, her bloating, her foggy brain, and her chronic fatigue. But here it is, a book that tells the truth about the real-life hurdles many people face trying to adopt a gluten free lifestyle. Whether you have celiac disease or are just very sensitive to gluten, her story will speak to you. She will make you cry with her, laugh with her, and maybe even double over in pain with her, but you will finish this book knowing so much more about this ever growing gluten-free craze.
