Donna Gates, best selling author of The Body Ecology Diet and The Baby Boomer Diet, is on a mission is to change the way the world eats. Over the past 25 years, Donna has become one of the most loved and respected authorities in the field of digestive health, diet, and nutrition, enjoying a worldwide reputation as an expert in candida, adrenal fatigue, autism, autoimmune diseases, weight loss and anti-aging.
She first wrote The Body Ecology Diet after years of research to find a cure for her own candida-related health problems. Since then she has helped hundreds of thousands of people overcome candidiasis and other immune system disorders. Frustrated with conventional medicine, she embarked on a long course of study into many different healing concepts, including ancient Chinese medicine, macrobiotics, natural hygiene, raw foods and supplement therapy. Incorporating the most beneficial components of each concept into her own system of health and healing, her success inspired her to share it with others. The Baby Boomer Diet: Body Ecology’s Guide to Growing Younger–Anti-Aging Wisdom For Every Generation is a cutting-edge look at how to look and feel young at any age.
Donna is credited with leading some of the most important innovations in natural health, including inventing young coconut water kefir, being at the forefront of probiotics and fermented foods, and bringing stevia/Reb A (powder and liquid), along with other products, into the U.S. She has studied with the top macrobiotic teachers and graduated from Lima Osawa’s cooking academy in Japan. She holds a M.Ed. in Counseling from Loyola University and a B.S. in Early Childhood Development from the University of Georgia. Much more than a “diet”, Body Ecology offers a constantly expanding body of knowledge that focuses on the benefits of establishing and maintaining an inner ecosystem. Eating fermented foods and following the BED principles lays down a foundation for health that is essential to wellness. One of Donna’s major focuses is on resolving the crisis of our children’s health, and she is committed to preventing and overcoming autism.
