Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S.
Ann Louise Gittleman is undisputedly The First Lady of Nutrition.
As a nutritional visionary and health pioneer, she has fearlessly stood on the front lines of diet and detox, the environment, and women’s health. Described by Self Magazine as one of the Top Ten Notable Nutritionists in the United States, thousands of nutritionists, health coaches, and practitioners have benefited from her work.
Decades before the Paleo, Ketogenic and Vegan diet trends, Ann Louise Gittleman was the very first to proclaim that obesity and diabetes were caused by a lack of the right type of fat and an excess of the wrong kind of carbohydrate. She wrote about this in her first book, the bestselling Beyond Pritikin (1988). She was also the first nutritionist to write about the perils of gluten and discuss the blood type theory in 1997, boldly stating that one diet may not be right for every body in Your Body Knows Best.
She has been a tireless crusader for women by offering natural solutions to menopause and perimenopausal symptoms decades ahead of the curve in her award winning Super Nutrition for Women as well as Super Nutrition for Menopause, and her New York Times bestseller Before the Change.
She then revolutionized dieting in the first edition of The Fat Flush Plan—an international best seller—by proclaiming that the liver was the body’s primary fat burning organ (and detoxifier).
In 2010, she led the charge against the hidden hazards of cell phones, ipads, smart meters and WIFI in her groundbreaking Zapped—an issue that is just recently gaining momentum.
She has appeared on 20/20, Dr. Phil, The View, Good Morning America, Extra!, FitTV and The Early Show. In addition, her work has been featured on ABC, CNN, PBS, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CBN, Fox News, and the BBC.
She has served as a celebrity spokesperson and formula developer for many of the leading companies in the health foods and network marketing industry. Her work has been featured in a myriad of national publications including Time, Newsweek, Glamour and The New York Times.
Engaging Health
Today, she continues to dedicate herself to carving out new landmarks in functional and integrative medicine with her latest e-book, Eat Fat Lose Weight. She is a popular speaker on internet summits and is actively involved with videos and her blog. Her expert advice often appears in First for Women magazine where Ann Louise was the nutrition columnist for over ten years.
In 2016 Ann Louise was presented with the Humanitarian Award from the Cancer Control Society. She currently sits on the Advisory Board for the International Institute for Building-Biology & Ecology, the Nutritional Therapy Association, Inc. and Clear Passage, Inc.
