FB_Post#4

The quarterly Community Update is our chance to give you a heads up about AIP community news, podcasts, video series, and local in-person meet-up groups. If you have started a local support group on Facebook (no pages please), send the link to [email protected] and we will promote it!

How AIP Can Help Improve Your Energy

Low energy is one of the top complaints for many with autoimmune disease, regardless of which disease you’ve been diagnosed with. In this comprehensive article, AIP Certified Coach Vanessa Bond takes us through the root causes of chronic low energy, and explains how to use AIP to replenish your physical and mental energy levels. Read full article here.

UPDATED: The Definitive Guide to Inflammatory Bowel Disease

IBD encompasses many common autoimmune conditions and can significantly impact quality of life for those who have it. A few years ago, we published a top-to-bottom guide to serve as a starting place for folks learning how to manage it. There have been lots of advancements in the IBD space since then, so this year we had our friend, NTP and fellow AIP Certified Coach Jaime Hartman refresh and renew our guide! It covers how IBD is diagnosed, typical treatments, what happens when it isn’t treated, and how AIP can help. Read the guide here.

We Went on Strike

Autoimmune Wellness, leadership and team, went on strike May 9th to 15th. No new content was posted on our website or any of our social media channels. Why? The short answer: basic human rights that are prerequisites to personal wellness were under threat by the then-draft opinion by the US Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade. Of course, this draft opinion has now become a reality. We go into more detail about our decision to participate in the strike on the blog, and discuss ways you can get involved regarding this issue if you feel called to do so. Read our explanation here.

Want to Be Featured on Our Blog?

Right now, we’re looking for contributors to our Kitchen Tour series where you give us a glimpse of your AIP kitchen and tell us how you’ve adapted your home and lifestyle to AIP. Participating is really fun and a great way to inspire and encourage new AIPers. We’d love to feature you! Click here to fill out our interest form.

AIP Meetup Groups

Find a local networking group centered around the Autoimmune Protocol! Be advised that these are not disease-specific support groups, but are to facilitate in-person networking and support for those on or considering the Autoimmune Protocol. Each group has their own moderation and rules for membership, but generally they are private and supportive of those on their healing journeys. Know that this listing does not imply endorsement by Autoimmune Paleo, groups are not run by us, and your request to join and any information you may encounter in these groups is at your own risk.

If possible, please request membership in a group local to where you live — after all, the whole idea is to get together with others in your community who are facing similar challenges! Health coaches, practitioners, online marketers, and others trying to sell their products, know that many of these groups are well moderated and solicitation will not be tolerated. If there isn’t a group near you, consider starting your own and letting us know about it on our contact page!
