Diversity in AIP – March 2018

Diversity in AIP is a story series showcasing the wide variety of people from different backgrounds adapting AIP to not only support autoimmune healing, but also to honor important cultural, religious, ethnic, or national food traditions. We are sharing these stories regularly to encourage folks of similar backgrounds to join our Autoimmune Wellness movement and to inspire the community as a whole about the growing ...

Chicken with Mushrooms and Tarragon

  Satisfying, full of flavor and a little on the creamy side, this recipe is my idea of food for comfort. And let’s face it, we all need some of that every so often! I don’t often cook with tarragon and if you’ve never had it before, give it a try. Its anise-like taste goes beautifully with chicken. And although it’s quite subtle, it pairs ...

5 Reasons You Should Get Your Nutrition From Real Food Before Supplements

The addition (or subtraction!) of supplements, while on a healing diet like the Autoimmune Protocol is one of the hottest topics in our community. Personally, in my 6-plus-year healing journey, I’ve been through many “phases” of supplementation. At my sickest, when I was transitioning away from 10 years of veganism and dealing with extreme malnutrition due to a new diagnosis of celiac disease, I was ...

Through these ...

Strawberry-Hibiscus Iced Tea

  To me, nothing says spring like floral flavors. The weather’s getting warmer, things are at least starting to bloom, it’s finally comfortable to sit outside again (when it’s not raining, anyway)… It’s a time that begs for simple, refreshing flavors. Me, I’m a beverage addict. I struggle to drink plain old water unless I’m actually parched (in which case, there’s nothing better in the ...

Change the Channel, Change Your Life

Has someone ever made a remark that hit you the wrong way, and you held onto it far longer than you should? I know it’s happened to me. For whatever reason, I’ve had folks who have made offhand comments to me through the years that have echoed in my head for weeks and months afterward — and the reason is that they resonate with the ...

Instant Russian Tea

As the long winter months have drawn on, I’ve been looking for warming drinks to change up my routine. I was getting a little bored with some of the teas I usually drink and I adore bone broth, but that was getting a little tedious day after day as well. I also have to be a bit careful with herbal teas, as I have a ...
