Does Homeschooling Devalue Women?
I have Lupus SLE, fibromyalgia and chronic gout to name a few. I have many autoimmune diseases. Drs have been unable to put me in remission. HELP
Hi Tonya,
I wish I were able to help. I know how difficult it is when you have so many things going on in your body and doctors aren’t able to fully help. Have you tried looking into Facebook groups or forums specifically about your diseases? That is where I would start. They will be full of people who are dealing with the same things and can share the wisdom they’ve gained.

Have you looked into a functional medicine doctor? If not, you can start researching Dr Amy Meyers, Dr Josh Axe to start looking at information and then see if you can find one locally. Amy Meyers has a fb group too and they are great resources and support. I hope you can find some answers.
Hi,
Do you have all of these recipes in a book?
Due to the decline in my health I have been on the AIP diet. Really craving some good foods.
Thanks so much,
Robin
Hi Robin,
None of these recipes are my own so I don’t have them in a book. I hope the AIP diet works well for you!
