The Metabolic Typing Diet Gluten Free. For the past ten to twenty years I have seen in my practice a steady increase in the amount of gluten sensitivity with my clients. I am not talking about celiac disease which is a very dangerous and serious disorder that makes a person allergic to gluten (wheat, oats, barley or rye). I am seeing two thirds of my clients come in complaining of weight gain, fatigue, sleep disorders, bloating, gas, high blood sugar and uncontrollable cravings., just to name a few. When I have suggested that they take gluten out of their diet for just one week to see how they feel the results have been amazing. From losing two to four pounds in just one week and having more energy and a flatter stomach to even sleeping better.

I am convinced that we can and quite possibly, should live without gluten. That does not mean to live without carbohydrates. We need fiber and eating vegetables and fruits is the best way to assure that we get enough fiber in out diet. I also recommend the non-gluten grains such as brown rice, quinoa, millet, amaranth and wild rice. I do not recommend most of the new gluten free products that have been created. Most of these products are filled with ingredients that are highly processed and should not be ingested.

Especially if you are trying to lose some weight or lower your blood sugars. For this reason I have created a gluten free version of my cookbooks. If you would like more information on this subject I recommend reading Wheat Belly by William Davis, MD and also the book Grain Brain by David Perlmutter, MD. Nancy Dale C.N.

I began cooking when I was a small girl. When I became a certified nutritionist I decided to delve into cooking from a health standpoint. Just as I completed my chef certificate in 1994 my mother was diagnosed with liver cancer. I quickly moved in with her and began cooking as a means to bring her back to health. She was given just weeks to live. I lived with her for 5 years cooking all the while.

At that same time I started my clinical nutrition practice. I could only work part time while attending to my mother. I started cooking for my clients to show them what healthy meals taste like and before long I had developed a business of creating healthy meals, delivered to my clients. I lived in the Southern California area and began working with the movie industry. I was hired to work with the stars when their role required them to lose weight or to get healthier. Most of the meals in this book were created at that time.

Since moving to the Santa Barbara area I no longer cook and deliver my food. I now teach cooking classes in my home twice a year and operate two nutrition offices. I became a Certified Metabolic Typing Advisor five years ago and began creating menus based on that same principle. All of the recipes in the book have been created with your health in mind. We can not expect restaurants or prepared foods to give us health. It is my hope that you begin to love cooking as much as I do.

Bon apptit! Nancy Dale C.N., CMTA, FDN Foreword Over 30 years ago, my sojourn with Metabolic Typing first began. From the very first encounter, I knew in my heart, in my whole being, that I had been blessed with the good fortune to have found something very special. So intriguing, so rewarding has that 3 decades long journey been, that nothing has been able to entice my one-pointed attention away from my quest to uncover the wondrous and amazing secrets of health possible through Metabolic Typing. As might be imagined, a lot can happen over 3 decades or over half a lifetime in my case. And so it has. Just like the accidental discovery of a piece of a broken pot can lead to an anthropological dig that unearths an entire ancient city, what began as a one dimensional concept to determine individual dietary requirements has evolved, one discovery at a time, into an 11 dimensional model for the science of optimal health known as Metabolic Typing.

The complexity, depth and breadth of this scientific discipline is staggering, when understood in its entirety. And yet, the day-to-day application of the truths revealed through Metabolic Typing is utterly simple, once you know exactly what to do and how to do it. Through the Metabolic Typing Cookbooks, Nancy Dale has provided what may indeed be the most important tool for successfully living the metabolic typing lifestyle. Nancys hard won and heartfelt contribution to all of us in the form of the Metabolic Typing Cookbooks is a natural expression of that rare, priceless combination of time, talent and experience, combined with a giving nature and a loving heart. The world is rife with so-called experts. These days, anyone can write a book, self-publish it on the internet and with a little marketing savvy, appear authoritative.

But the truth is that which lasts longest. And it is as true today as it has been since time immemorial, that expertise is possible only from the knowledge and understanding born from experience. Nancy Dale has an abundance of both. Nancy has been one of the most active Certified Metabolic Typing Advisors in the world over the last 5 years and her thriving, extremely successful practice with hundreds of enthusiastic, happy clients is testament to her expertise. Nancys background as a successful, professional chef, combined with her extensive clinical experience with Metabolic Typing makes her uniquely qualified to author these cookbooks. Use them. Use them.

And enjoy the energy, well-being and good health that surely will ensue! William L. Wolcott

Winthrop, Washington, December, 2009 Acknowledgement This has been the most rewarding project I have ever worked on. This book along with the other five metabolic typing cookbooks has been a labor of love. The bulk of the recipes were created from teaching my cooking classes throughout the years. It was not until 2009 that I actually fine-tuned the recipes to have only the ingredients for each particular type for each recipe- not an easy task when you consider each recipe must be created using only those ingredients. A special thanks to Meg Fish for her amazing photography and her special artistic touch seen throughout the books; Neither one of us had ever edited or created a book before so it was a pleasure to have someone so full of energy and enthusiasm to work with.

I would also like to acknowledge Bill Wolcott for his wonderful support and encouragement. Without him we would not have this incredible metabolic typing approach to health. To all my students and clients who have tasted my recipes and to all of you who are about to try them; I hope you like them as much as I do. Eating to Live, not living to eat, Nancy Dale Introduction These recipes are meant to be a starting point; adding more or less of any of the proteins, fats and carbohydrates until you feel satisfied. Experiment; this is how I created these recipes with the intent of customizing to fit your needs. Most of the recipes are for multiple meals.

I actually cook on Sunday for all week. I choose what recipes I am going to make and create a shopping list of ingredients a day or two prior to cooking. I involve everyone in the fun of choosing what they would like to eat. On the week-end I reserve a couple of hours to cook all of the meals for the upcoming week. When the food has cooled, I divide each portion so that each person has the right amount to begin with. It is a complete delight for me to walk into my kitchen at the end of a long day and open my refrigerator to any number of meals I have made that can be easily re-heated in the oven or on the stove top.
