Summary Sharing her extensive research, professional experience, investigative journalism, and personal history, health activists Nadine Grzeskowiak takes us on a journey from the throes of Celiac disease to the thriving health of a mountain climber...Dough Nation investigates the health, social, political and economic factors regarding gluten intolerance and Celiac disease, and how "the largest untapped market in the world is being manipulated."...This provocative evidence of how much we need to be paying attention to the power of the food we are eating describes the lack of health care education regarding gut disease, the history of Celiac in the United States and the world, and how individuals can become their own health care advocate.
