"This is a story of hope...This book is a page turner. Esposito is an inspiration."―Living Without's Gluten Free & More

"This is award-winning actress Jennifer Esposito's story of decades of ill health and emotional hardships, and her long search to find a reason for them...this is the story of how she took control and became a health advocate for herself and others. Part one shares her journey. In part two, Your Journey, she offers guidance, advice, recipes, and more to help you find your way."
―Taste for Life

"This book is frank, it's raw, compelling, and ultimately uplifting... Jennifer's Way is a page-turner of medical self-discovery that will give many people a new appreciation of Celiac disease."―Allergic Living

"This book was so captivating and kept me interested throughout. As I told her, I was on pins and needles during the chapter titled In the Psych Ward. I couldn't believe that doctors and medical professionals could be so rude to put her through what she went through during that time (and many others throughout her journey). In Jennifer's Way, you get a glimpse of what it is like for so many living with Celiac disease... I was very impressed with Jennifer's willingness to open up and share her story with millions. I would recommend that those with Celiac disease as well as loved ones to those living with Celiac disease read this book. Eyes will be opened and understand built as you tearfully read one woman's Celiac journey."―GlutenFreeFrenzy.com

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Award-winning actress Jennifer Esposito tells a riveting personal story about her own journey and experience with chronic illness, and her long-awaited diagnosis: celiac disease. Armed with this knowledge, she vowed to rebuild her life to ensure her wellness, and she learned how to live again. The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness estimates that as many as 1 in 133 Americans has celiac disease, and 83% of people who have it are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed with other conditions. Jennifer received an accurate diagnosis only after decades of mysterious illnesses and misdiagnoses. Upon being diagnosed with celiac disease, she dedicated herself to advocacy through her nonprofit foundation for celiac education, Jennifer's Way. She also owns and operates a gluten-free bakery called Jennifer's Way in Manhattan. Jennifer, who starred in the Oscar-winning film Crash and CBS's Blue Bloods, will not let her diagnosis deter her--or anyone else--from living a successful and healthy life. She provides hope for all those who suffer. For anyone struggling with a chronic illness, Jennifer's Way is proof that there is a solution for what ails you, that you shouldn't stop until you find it, and that you can feel good again.
