You might find this hard to believe, but even though I write for a living, it’s quite difficult for me to tell my health story. As you’ll read, my journey involves long overdue diagnoses and years of depression and pain, but also the mental and emotional toll of navigating the deepest part of my illness while living in West Africa. Heavy, I know! These dark ...
Angie’s Healing Story
Bacon-Date Crusted Salmon
One of the first recipes I created when I initially went Paleo was walnut-crusted salmon topped with a bacon-rosemary crumble. I can credit that dish as one of the meals that went on my husband (then boyfriend)’s “Should I propose to her?” tally board. This AIP re-creation has even surpassed my previous success! It’s savory, sweet, and full of complementary textures. Usually I don’t ...
Three Reasons You Need More Time in the Forest
While spending time outdoors may seem like a long forgotten luxury, science has revealed what your inner-child has known since birth: Nature is medicine. When dealing with chronic illness and especially the chronic fatigue that generally comes with it, pursuing outdoor activities may seem out of reach. However, this is one of the key missing pieces to your health recovery that can aid extreme benefit ...
Raw Coconut Macaroons with “Chocolate” Ganache
I created this recipe especially for my husband. Although he doesn’t particularly have a sweet tooth, he really adores coconut macaroons!

Laurence Stern, an 18th century ...
AIP Kitchen Tour – April 2015

We’ve heard reports of people who are able to make AIP work in college dorms and small city apartments to large ...
Honey-Lime Chicken & Strawberry Salad
It’s been a chilly winter here in Atlanta, but with spring around the corner my body has been craving crisp and cool salads. If I had to calculate how many salads I’ve eaten over the past 10 years, it would look something like this: 10(365 x 2). Now I’m not going to do that math, but do you see how much experience I have ...
Restorative Yoga for Stress Relief
Frequently we hear about the benefits of yoga for stress relief. But why does yoga have such a reputation? Although yoga practitioners have known for thousands of years that the practice gives deep health benefits, more recently the science world has delved into studying the physiological processes that are effected by yoga, supporting the claims that it’s truly a stress reliever. The Stress Response Part ...
