Cassava flour tortillas

Cassava flour tortillas

Used heal me delicious cassava flour tortillas and they came out great!! I always use bacon fat to make tortillas and didn’t use all the water. I pressed them with my hands onto parchment paper then transferred to a hot pan. Definitely recommend!

Does anybody with Sjogrens or RA have these ?

I get these blisters on my hands when I wear gloves or work or have to grip things for a while. Still undiagnosed but gp and rheumatologist suspect RA and Sjogrens.

Creamy mushroom chicken

My husband actually said this was one of the best meals I’ve ever made AIP or not! What a compliment haha it was super good. I used bacon fat and a cup of diced shallots then added a carton of sliced button mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms with some salt until soft and brown then added about 2 cups of chicken broth and reduced that almost all the way down then added a whole can of coconut cream and reduced that all the way down and added sage and parsley. Bet this would also be good with garlic and bacon bits 😍 poured this all on top of sautéed chicken (just a little salt) and it was seriously so good. 10/10 recommend. This is our third time going in the diet and it seems to get easier and easier everytime I do it. This time I’ve learned to make AIP compliant pickles, found frozen ice cream, and have just learned how to make recipes work and taste just as good as non AIP.

Not pictured, roasted sweet potatoes that I’ve been making. 425 with coconut oil, salt and maple sugar cooked for 15 minutes then flipped and cooked another 15 minutes. Tastes like dessert.

High Histamine, Autoimmune Eczema, AIP

Hello!

I’m looking to start the AIP soon to manage a very bad atopic eczema flare up I’m having

(for context: always had eczema, “cured” it with immunosuppressants that I had to stop bc of side effects, now on Dupixent for 4 years which worked fine up until a couple months ago).

I am worried I might be sensitive to high histamine foods as well as others, and that AIP might not work and I’d be going through all of that for nothing.

I would be grateful for any tips/experiences dealing with eczema and/or histamine sensitivity on the AIP.

What did you eat this week?

I'm back on AIP after several years. I believe it fully healed a bad, scary flare I had at one point. I am having trouble remembering what I ate at the time! Breakfast, especially.

Looking for success stories!

Has anyone ever healed or put their autoimmune on remission with AIP? I’m planning on going 8 weeks on it first and then slowly maybe reintroducing foods! I’m a vegetarian so eating a ton of veggies should be easy I guess? Wish me luck! Thank you guys in advance 🙏🏽

Context: I was diagnosed with Psoriatic arthritis in 2015 and then Hashimotos a few years ago too! Really trying to go all in and see what happens! Also Dr.Will Cole says to keep eating lentils if you’re a vegetarian, I’m curious to see what happens as that’s my only source of protein.

Wheat-fed poultry

Would you consider it safe to consume chicken that was fed wheat? I have a severe sensitivity to gluten (neuropsychiatric), so I'm unsure whether it would be safe for me to try chicken from a local farm that feeds its chickens wheat/grain-based feed rather than corn and soy.

For clarification, I am NOT interested in attempting to reintroduce wheat into my diet. If there is any risk that eating chicken raised on wheat-containing feed could trigger a gluten reaction, I don't want to take that chance.

Thank you!

I’m so tired of sweet potato’s what do you guys eat to stay full?

I’m a week on the AIP diet because my husband has Hashimoto’s and I’m doing it out of solidarity and an effort to try new things. We’ve been eating a TON of sweet potato’s because it’s easy to make and it keeps you full.

However I have ARFID which makes textures hard to deal with, and I keep getting really disgusted by it. What are your go to fill you up meals? Preferably something you can make in bulk for reheating.

Hashimoto's diet

New HD guy here. Just wondering something here.

The diet seems nearly impossible unless I basically live on a farm, or have time to cook every day.

I guess my question, which I know will return quite a few broad answers, is how much tolerance do you all have for items on the avoid list?

Also, I have a few random aches and pains going back a while with no real source. I would like to know if your random aches and pains turned out to be flare ups. My digestive issues have certainly made a lot more sense lately.

Please and thank you in advance.

Looking for help with new diet W/ MCAS recovering from DRESS as well

Was looking for help with brands that’s people have bought and where to find , I have a pretty basic list of what foods Ii can eat but trying to find specific brands that meet all allergy needs has been so hard .. I have been navigating a new diet based on medical need and major allergic reactions to various things

I have MCAS currently recovering from DRESS. Things I’ve normally been able to eat for the entirety of my life now are causing anaphylaxis or allergic reactions that I’ve never had before one of the main things I’ve noticed is anything with sulfites in it whether they are preservatives or naturally, there is a major trigger anything with soy and cornmeal as well

I was trying to look for ideas on how to feed myself with no soy , no sulfites or cornmeal. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I am just starting my journey with most of this so it’s been trial and error at the expense of my health and a lot of ways thank you so much for any help anybody could provide.

Too tired to workout consistently!

For those of you with autoimmune conditions—what does your workout routine look like?
I’ve noticed that whenever I work out, I’m often completely exhausted the next day. My body seems to need a much longer recovery period, to the point where I sometimes have to take the entire following day off.
I still want to stay active and build strength, but I’m struggling to find the balance between exercising enough and completely draining myself.
For anyone who experiences something similar, what has helped you?
• What types of workouts work best for you?
• How often do you exercise?
• What helps with energy and post-workout recovery?
• Do you intentionally keep your workouts shorter or lower intensity?
Would love to hear what has worked for others dealing with autoimmune-related fatigue. Thanks in advance!
