I was lucky to find this book at the library. It was so much better than other books I've come across on similar topics, that I wanted to buy it. I have self-diagnosed myself with the problems mentioned in the book. I feel like a new person, with energy, now that I avoid wheat.

This book was most helpful to me as I am gluten intolerant and have an allergy to wheat. It was written by a gluten-intolerant doctor who explains gluten-intolerance in a new light and the importance of avoiding gluten and wheat products.

Many Reasons to eat Gluten Free by Anne Barfield (San Antonio, TX USA)

Dr. Wangen's book explains a host of reasons why one should be eating gluten free. As a nationally recognized authority in the area of gluten-intolerance, he is qualified to explain these different reasons. Everything in this book is helpful to those of us searching for more answers. I have been a diagnosed celiac for almost 12 years now. When I was diagnosed with celiac disease and started the gluten-free diet I had no idea there would be many members of our support group who did not have a medical diagnosis of celiac disease. As the membership chair of our local support group, and as a GF Bed and Breakfast owner, I find that the majority of people I talk to have chosen to eat GF for many various reasons. Most of our guests have multiple dietary restrictions and are still searching for answers about new dietary problems that have come up. We keep a copy of Healthier Without Wheat in the bookcase of our B&B suite for this reason. It is interesting to talk with guests about which chapters got their attention. I highly recommend this book if you are still looking for answers about gluten intolerance.

I am very glad to have come across this book. It is very detailed and comprehensive. I have learned a lot about being gluten intolerant. Also, I was not aware that gluten intolerance can be divided into two general categories--celiac and non-celiac. This book also includes helpful information about blood testing and diagnosing for these problems. I recommend this book for anyone who experiences allergic reactions to foods.

Dr. Stephen Wangen explains the difference between celiac disease, allergies, and intolerances in a way that everyone can understand. These often subtle differences can be significant to someone who may be reacting to the foods they eat. Everything in the book is substantiated with solid facts, interviews, studies, and reliable data. He covers everything, explaining in detail what tests are needed, questions to ask your doctor, what to do once you've been diagnosed, complications that may arise, to the healing process. I highly recommend this book if you have a wheat intolerance or allergy because Dr. Wangen will put everything into perspective for you.
