Editorial Reviews

02/01/2016
“Clean eating” may be an overused phrase these days, but as this cookbook shows, it’s still a valuable way of thinking about food in a postindustrial world. Culinary nutritionist and blogger Valpone knows firsthand about the connection between food and well-being. Once sick herself with a variety of ailments, she offers her insights on the natural lifestyle that she says healed her and the rationale for going allergen free. There’s a plan here for a 21-day elimination diet, as well as a cornucopia of recipes—many of which reflect the current trends on health-conscious blogs—including spiralized veggie noodles, raw tarts, and baked oatmeal. Some of the entrees, such as the Pumpkin Enchiladas with Moo-Free Cashew Sour Cream and mini-black-rice-and-almond sliders verge on too-technical for a weekday. Yet there are plenty of quicker options, such as the requisite grain-free brownies and no-soy chickpea miso soup. Pure inventiveness shines through in breadless coconut vanilla French toast, Perfect Pumpkin Gelato, and curried maple hummus, making this book a valuable resource for those that don’t want to give up excitement along with their toxic substances.

Publishers Weekly

Amie approaches detoxification and optimal health from a genuine place. She has struggled with toxicity and many of its health-robbing ramifications. Along the way, she’s developed a road map she shares in this groundbreaking book that can also help you heal your health, your weight, and your life.” —from the Foreword by MARK HYMAN, MD, nine-time #1 New York Times best-selling author   “I admire and respect Amie’s healthy approach to clean eating and love the recipes and photography in this book! A huge help for people who want to live a healthier lifestyle, but don’t know where to start.” —GINA HOMOLKA, creator of Skinnytaste.com and New York Times best-selling author of The Skinnytaste Cookbook   “Eating Clean is filled with delicious anti-inflammatory recipes and practical solutions to help reset your body and reclaim your health. Amie has the courage to share her authentic journey from chronic illness to vitality: She’s an inspiration. Her contagious enthusiasm, passion, and glowing energy come through on every page. This book is a must-have in your anti-inflammatory kitchen.” —FRANK LIPMAN, MD, New York Times best-selling author of The New Health Rules   “In Eating Clean, Amie Valpone nails the simple truth that food is at the heart of our well-being. As someone, much like Amie, who has struggled with conventional treatment of an auto-immune disease, I can attest to the healing power of food. In this age of overly processed food, excessive prescription medication, and so-called quick fixes, it’s so wonderful to hear Amie’s courageous voice inspiring us to return to a cleaner, more natural way of taking control of our health!” —SEAMUS MULLEN, award-winning chef, restaurateur, cookbook author, and wellness advocate   “Everything is changing when it comes to the health of our families. The escalating rates of food allergies, asthma, autism, diabetes, obesity, and cancer are changing how we view food. Eating Clean is a cookbook for a healthy life! With resources, tools, and a strong and gentle hand, it is a valuable resource for those on the road to recovery.” —ROBYN O'BRIEN, analyst, mother, and author of The Unhealthy Truth "Persevering through a battery of physicians and restructuring her food intake totally, Valpone achieved complete relief from chronic illness that had dogged and debilitated her for years. Causes of her poor health appeared to center on systemic accumulation of heavy metals and Lyme disease, among other disorders. To blaze a trail back to good health, Valpone successfully cleansed her body of toxins and jettisoned dairy products and gluten. She also rejected processed foods and anything pulled from a can. This sort of diet demands home cooking for virtually every meal. In the process, Valpone became expert at finding foods that met her requirements for both good health and satisfying flavors. She sought out obscure, nonstandard ingredients that promised anti-inflammatory benefits. The hundreds of recipes she advances may repudiate whole classes of edibles, but she is meticulous to keep her cooking flavorful and appealing by including many carefully sourced nuts, seeds, oils, fruits and vegetables." —Booklist "While most Western doctors doctors treat symptons, Amie Valpone believes that many diseases can be cured simply altering your diet and eliminating toxins from your environs." —Marie Claire —
