Thanks to Ellen Cutler’s treatments, the guaifenesin protocol, and acupuncture, my health is so much better. I have been able to return to practice medicine as a fibromyalgia consultant, and I feel blessed to be able to continue my recovery with the help of Dr. Cutler’s digestive enzymes and clearing treatments.” —Melissa Congdon, MD, fibromyalgia consultant If you are one of the millions of people who suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, Crohn’s Disease, colitis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, candidiasis, sinusitis, hay fever, environmental illnesses, and other autoimmune disorders and sensitivities, you’ve probably tried a myriad of treatments just trying to gain control of your life.

It provides an empowering new explanation of allergies and sensitivities as the cause of chronic illness, as well as a groundbreaking approach to overcoming them. Allergies and sensitivities can be reduced or eliminated, not miraculously and instantaneously, but inevitably and permanently. With contributions from Dr. Richard Tunkel, Dr. Ellen Cutler outlines the relationships among allergies, sensitivities, and chronic health and autoimmune disorders, guiding both patients and health-care practitioners in identifying and eliminating sensitivities that trigger symptoms. Case studies and personal stories illustrate how this powerful new approach has ended the suffering for thousands of all ages without the use of drugs.

For those battling autoimmune disease or thyroid conditions—or just seeking healthy life balance—the voice behind the popular blog Feed Me Phoebe shares her yearlong investigation of what truly made her well. After she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease in her early twenties, Phoebe Lapine felt overwhelmed by her doctor’s strict protocols and confused when they directly conflicted with information on the bestseller list. After experiencing mixed results and a life of deprivation that seemed unsustainable at best, she adopted 12 of her own wellness directives—including eliminating sugar, switching to all-natural beauty products, and getting in touch with her spiritual side—to find out which lifestyle changes truly impacted her health for the better. The Wellness Project is the insightful and hilarious result of that year of exploration—part memoir and part health and wellness primer (complete with 20 healthy recipes), it’s a must-read not just for those suffering from autoimmune disease, but for anyone looking for simple ways to improve their health without sacrificing life’s pleasures.

The multi-disciplinary artist and author of Like a Bird and How to Cure a Ghost explores the commodification and appropriation of wellness through the lens of social justice, providing resources to help anyone participate in self-care, regardless of race, identity, socioeconomic status or able-bodiedness. Growing up in Australia, Fariha Róisín, a Bangladeshi Muslim, struggled to fit in. In attempts to assimilate, she distanced herself from her South Asian heritage and identity. Years later, living in the United States, she realized that the customs, practices, and even food of her native culture that had once made her different—everything from ashwagandha to prayer—were now being homogenized and marketed for good health, often at a premium by white people to white people. In this thought-provoking book, part memoir, part journalistic investigation, the acclaimed writer and poet explores the way in which the progressive health industry has appropriated and commodified global healing traditions. She reveals how wellness culture has become a luxury good built on the wisdom of Black, brown, and Indigenous people—while ignoring and excluding them. Who Is Wellness For? is divided into four sections, beginning with The Mind, in which Fariha examines the art of meditation and the importance of intuition. In part two, The Body, she investigates the physiology of trauma, detailing her own journey with fatphobia and gender dysmorphia, as well as her own chronic illness. In part three, Self-Care, she argues against the self-care industrial complex but cautious us against abandoning care completely and offers practical advice. She ends with Justice, arguing that if we truly want to be well, we must be invested in everyone’s well being and shift toward nurturance culture. Deeply intimate and revelatory, Who Is Wellness For? forces us to confront the imbalance in health and healing and carves a path towards self-care that is inclusionary for all.
