Shelly Malone experienced first-hand a dramatic, positive change in her health when she adopted a truly clean diet. Shortly after giving birth to her daughter, Shelly was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Celiac Disease which were causing her severe joint pain and fatigue. As a new Mom, a working professional and an athlete, the thought of progressive disability was terrifying to her. After researching both Eastern and Western therapy options, she opted to try the Anti-Inflammatory Diet. Within a week, not only did her joint pain and fatigue virtually disappear, but the swelling in her knuckles was reduced enough that she was finally able to get her wedding ring back on.
Shelly holds a B.S. in Nutritional Science from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and a Master’s degree in Public Health from UCLA. She was a Registered Dietitian with the American Dietetic Association for 5 years.

Hi Shelly! I hope this finds you well…
Question– besides Skinny Bitch is there a book you would recommend for a newbie as clean eating?
Thank you for all you do!

Hi Alicia. Thank you for writing and congratulations on making the move toward clean eating! I do love Skinny Bitch for its straight talk on the effect of food on our bodies. Michael Pollens, The Omnivore’s Dillema, is also a must read for a comprehensive view of our food supply and a behind-the-scenes look into the politics that effect it. References I like for a more direct look at inflammation and food intolerance, include The Inflammation Syndrome by Jack Challem and Dangerous Grains by Dr. James Braly and Ron Hoggan. I hope you find this helpful on your journey.
I read your interview on Fig+Sage, and I commented there and sent you an e-mail. Just wanted to say on here…YOU ROCK! I cannot thank you enough! All the best to you!
