One of the most potent superfoods available to us also happens to be off-putting, at least to those unfamiliar with it. It has amounts of notoriously hard-to absorb nutrients that those of us with autoimmune disease are usually lacking in – B vitamins, iron, zinc, and vitamins A and D. It took me a long time after reading about all of the benefits of liver ...
Bacon-Beef Liver Pâté with Rosemary and Thyme
Low Stomach Acid and Autoimmune Disease
One of the recent topics I have covered in my coursework with the Nutritional Therapy Association is digestion. In the book Why Stomach Acid Is Good For You by Dr. Jonathan Wright, I have come across a lot of information that I believe is relevant to those suffering with autoimmune disease and dealing with digestive difficulties (considering leaky gut — probably all of us!). Here I will ...
Winter Kale Salad
This is a simple classic that I make weekly for my autoimmune protocol menu. Kale is one of the veggies that is available fresh year-round here in the northwest, and I like to make generous use of it. This salad is something that keeps well for a few days, and is great to have on hand to round out a meal with some veggies or ...
Citrus and Herb Pot-Roast with Carrots and Parsnips
My go-to way to cook a roast has been in a pressure cooker as of late, mostly because it is a quick way to transform a cheap hunk of meat into a delicious meal. There is something about what a slow and steady braise adds to the flavor of the meat that cannot be replicated in that method, however. Here is the recipe I use ...
Radish and Jicama Tabbouli
As a vegan, I would make batches of hummus and tabbouli often. When I ditched the beans and grains, that no longer happened, and they were two dishes that I greatly missed. This week I was inspired to attempt an AIP-friendly version of tabbouli with radishes and jicama instead of the grains. It is light, crunchy and refreshing and a great way to get some ...
Mickey’s Recovery – Part II
If you are starting here, you might want to read Mickey’s story, parts I, II, and III, and her recovery part I. When we left off, I had managed to recover enough to get a part-time job. I was still very much sick and tired, but had a small window of energy every day and figured that it would be best if I started using that for work. ...
Mickey’s Recovery – Part I
If you are starting here, you might want to read Mickey’s story, parts I, II, and III. Once I found the “thyroid book” by Dr. Kharrazian, I knew that there was much more to my Hashimoto’s that I didn’t know and I would hopefully be able to find some help. I stumbled across one of his trained practitioners, and began seeing her as soon as possible. On my first ...
Jicama, Pear, and Mint Salad with Citrus-Ginger Dressing
Since going on the Autoimmune Protocol, I have been continually searching for new vegetables to switch things up from the usual rotation. I happened to be in a grocery store I don’t shop at often, and was reminded of jicama, a vegetable I used to buy all the time. Here I use it to make a crunchy salad with a little added sweetness from ...
