Autoimmune Diet

[Helenback]

Anyone on here doing the AID Paleo diet, how are you getting on, is it working?

I am aiming towards it, and have been gluten and dairy free for two weeks now.

Thank you !

[Ginsing]

I havent heard of this diet how are you doing?

[Helenback in reply to Ginsing]

I think I feel less tired and also my swollen feet and stomach has decreased so fingers crossed it continues

I had to stop Gluten, Dairy and Soy with what is thought to be, IBS.

The IBS is not gone but I was in so much pain I fear taking any of these things again.

I even react badly to Oats and can't touch crisps that are free of all the substances I seem to react badly to.

My Fibro or energy level has not improved and I have been doing this for about 7 months now!

I say give it a go and see how you are, some seem to do well on it from what I read.

As I said to Ginsing I feel less tired, the puffyness is much improved and yes actually my IBS is also better!

I hope you continue to improve Ray and thank you for your reply

It really is a question of digging till you find something!

Hi, I have just been reading about this on WebMD and they describe it as the caveman diet. It looks quite interesting as I am Lactose intolerant.

*What You Can Eat and What You Can't

Go Paleo, and you'll eat a lot of fresh lean meats and fish, fruits, and vegetables, and healthier fats.

You can also eat:

Eggs

Nuts and seeds

Healthier oils, including olive oil and coconut oil

You can't eat any processed foods on this diet. And since our ancestors were hunter-gatherers, not farmers, say goodbye to wheat and dairy, along with other grains and legumes (such as peanuts and beans). Other foods to avoid:

Dairy

Refined sugar

Potatoes

Salt

Refined vegetable oils, such as canola

*Excerpt from WebMD

I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck with your diet.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken
