What is it like to go on the AIP? 4 stories from 1 household.

Have you thought about going on the autoimmune protocol (AIP), but feel intimidated to get started? My roommates and I have been on an AIP challenge for Lent. We’re halfway through now, and we’ve all decided to each share our perspective on what it has been like. We are all busy folks who LOVE to eat – seriously, we have to eat good food or we are just not happy people. Come read what we’ve learned in just over 2 weeks on a strict AIP + leaky gut protocol. 

5 Tips for Surviving the AIP or Repairvite Diet

I first went on a hybrid of the paleo autoimmune protocol and the Repairvite Diet a year ago to address leaky gut syndrome. I successfully healed my gut, so why would I go back on the AIP? Because my husband and roommates are all doing it now to address THEIR leaky guts! I’m joining in for moral support. They’re so lucky to have a live-in paleo/AIP blogger to help with meal planning and cooking, but for the rest of you I wanted to put together a little guide with shopping ideas and some of the top tips I learned in the past year.

BBQ Chicken Flatbread Pizza (autoimmune paleo)

One night, while eating BBQ chicken thighs and AIP flatbread, it struck me that I should combine the two and make an AIP version of BBQ chicken pizza on a flatbread crust. I owe many thanks to Russ at The Domestic Man for the inspiration; I started with his flatbread recipe and modified it to end up with what is a fantastic pizza crust for both the AIP diner or anyone else who is simply following a grain-free diet. Since I have this obsession with cooking with gelatin, I’ve used it in this recipe and the resulting crust is both pleasantly crunchy and chewy at the same time. You will really enjoy this recipe!
