Hello. I am Diane Eblin, a Professional Recipe Developer, Chef, Cookbook Author and Gluten-Free Specialist Health Coach to coaches and those who believe that their health and happiness can be changed one bite at a time. I say this from personal experience.
In 2007, I was told I could no longer eat gluten. After a 15 minute meltdown, I was happy to know that I was not crazy. There was a reason I was sick and to fix it all I had to do was not eat gluten- wheat, barley, rye and most oats because of cross contamination. But I really wasn’t sure what all that meant. I was scared, confused, would spend 2-3 hours grocery shopping and reading labels, and completely terrified to eat out at a restaurant. I made a lot of the common mistakes people make starting to live gluten-free that I’m still healing from.
I taught myself by researching and reading everything I could but still not totally understanding the nutrition aspect of this way of living. I could cook just about anything since I started cooking when I was 2 years old and my mother sat me on the countertop to help her. From there I started catering at age 9. Since then I’ve worked in the wholesale

meat industry in New York City, cooking and running cafeterias in office buildings, cooking and running restaurants and catering events for senators and movie stars.
In 2008 I started this site to keep track of my resources and my original recipes.
In 2011 I received my training at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I am certified by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners and has obtained continuing education units from Purchase College, State University of New York.
My education has equipped me with extensive knowledge in holistic nutrition, health coaching, and the importance of preventive care. Drawing on my education and experience, I work with clients to help them make the dietary and lifestyle changes that produce real and lasting results.
I can help take the fear out of making the transition to a gluten-free life and help people avoid so many of the mistakes I made. I can also help those who already live gluten-free and want to change what their doing to improve their health and reach those life goals and dreams.
I have experience with Chronic Lyme Disease as my son is healing from this now.
