The Simple AIP (Autoimmune Protocol) Handbook

Book excerpt: Fix leaky gut and heal your digestive system with The Simple AIP Handbook. Choose what dietary approach is right for you and kick-start your healing journey! The Simple AIP Handbook is a 4-stage autoimmune protocol that focuses on resting your body, mind, and spirit, while giving your metabolism and immune system a break to recover and return back to balance. It includes 4 Ancestral / Paleolithic AIP variations depending on where you are on the autoimmune spectrum, which is also on the book for you to determine. Autoimmunity is a very fluid metabolic environment that needs a holistic approach to be efficiently addressed. Gaining a proper foundation of knowledge regarding autoimmunity, how it manifests and how it is affected by diet and lifestyle is vital if you are a chronic disease or autoimmune patient. You may have to 'retrain' your immune system the same way you would train a puppy to behave, stay quiet and not overreact with everything and anything. Autoimmunity is essentially an immune overreaction and your immune system needs basically the same thing with a puppy- someone to help it from overreacting.
