Anyone ever do this? Some Chiros "sell it" to autoimmune people.

I looked at it once, its the only specialty (not fad) diet I have not tried. It came out at least 8 years ago, has not been to popular, its complicated too.

I don't like diets. Too many rules. Where I live you can't just go to the store. Grocery shopping is a planned activity and will take half a day. So diets stink in my world.

The only people that I'm aware of using those diets and actually needing to stick to them are those with severe issues like MCAD or that have serious, serious inflammation issues. I don't know all that many people, but I think enough to get a pretty decent understanding. I'll be interested to know if anyone else is following it and how they are doing on it.

sorry - never heard of it. But interested in the intent--can you post a descriptor Astro?

P- Just an example:

hypothyroidmom.com/autoimmune-patients-have-you-heard-of-th1-and-th2-dominance/

There are a lot more sites mentioning this.

The autoimmune paleo diet would be the one Terry Wahls prescribes. No egg white, no grains, no legumes, no nightshades (including white potatoes), no dairy.

Many people with "autoimmune" disease do not do well with these foods.

rowingmom- are you confusing this post with my other one on Terry Wahls diet?

TH1 or TH2 dominance is different. Its one or the other.

Eggs dont bother me, cows milk YES, best thing I ever left out. I have several autoimmune issues too.
