After being diagnosed with Chronic Vestibular Migraine in 2016, Alicia went on a personal journey to incorporate key supplements and lifestyle changes. Her blog emerged from the experience as a way for her to share recipes and tips to help improve the lives of those who constantly experience headaches, dizziness, and vertigo. She has been featured on digital magazines and publications such as Clean Eating Kitchen, Digital Journal, Migraine Again, and My Chronic Brain. She is a partner of the American Migraine Foundation. Alicia lives in Dallas, Texas.
"The Dizzy Cook is a great resource for migraine patients. Avoiding
migraine food triggers can often cause culinary boredom for many
migraine sufferers and their families. This cookbook helps migraine
sufferers prepare delicious, interesting dishes while avoiding
these triggers. It also provides ideas on substituting
typically-used but potentially migraine-aggravating ingredients in
well-loved dishes. While there are some migraine recipe books on
the market, this is the first one specifically written for
vestibular migraine sufferers."

"Alicia has been an excellent resource for me and my patients. Her
personal experience and carefully researched articles have helped
many of my patients understand how to treat their vestibular
migraine symptoms. I highly recommend her website and this
book!"

"Vestibular migraine patients face enough challenges without having
to worry about what they eat and drink. Unfortunately, many foods
and beverages can be migraine triggers. In The Dizzy Cook, Alicia
Wolf provides hope to people suffering from migraine. Hope that
they can eat delicious food that won’t trigger their symptoms. Hope
that they can cook meals the whole family will enjoy. Hope that
they can live a normal life.Learn from someone who has been there.
Alicia’s migraine journey was full of pitfalls, including doctors
who dismissed her symptoms and the loss of her career. A
migraine-friendly diet wasn’t an immediate 'cure' for her, but she
persevered and discovered how to test her triggers. This book is
based on her trial and error experience, and validated by a
registered dietician.In addition to her mouth-watering photos,
Alicia explains how to transition to a migraine diet, foods to
avoid and embrace, as well as fancy beverage recipes so you don’t
feel like you’re missing out. With plenty of variety and options
for special diets – such as gluten-free and vegan – you’re sure to
be bookmarking your favorites! Many thanks to Alicia for being an
'Ambassador' for vestibular migraine. By raising awareness and
normalizing these invisible conditions we can create a demand for
migraine-friendly food, making shopping and eating out easier and
more enjoyable."
*Cynthia Ryan, MBA Executive Director, The Vestibular Disorders
Association*
"Alicia was able to give a new mood, technique and voice to
previously bland and boring elimination diet dinner tables. The
menu and options that exist in the 'migraine world' have been
changed for the better. This cookbook has navigated the 'do not
eat' list existing in this space with ease and exploration. The
recipes are self-contained packets of information that are tidy and
aesthetically beautiful... not to mention, tasty and delicious! As
a migraine sufferer myself, and for the countless patients in our
clinic who use these recipes day in and day out, we can't get
enough of this edition and can't wait for another!"
*Brooke Pearce, Au.D., Co-Founder of Dizzy and Vertigo Institute
of Los Angeles*
"The Dizzy Cook brings the healing power of Heal Your Headache into
your home kitchen with a banquet of deliciously healthy recipes and
helpful dietary tips."
*David Buchholz, M.D., author of Heal Your Headache*
