The Paleo View (TPV), Episode 40: Practical Autoimmune Protocol 0:00 - Introduction 1:19 - News Views The Paleo Parents family has been busy doing fun things and Stacy is feeling tired, but as a result of good outdoor activities and fun with the boys Sarah turned in part two of her book this last week after spending a bit of time making final adjustments and edits Part 3 is the cookbook and Sarah needs to finalize and type the recipes, but isn't feeling very motivated Sarah is having a hard time switching her brain out of science mode to develop the cookbook portion of The Paleo Approach, but has been giving herself some slack to recharge a bit since over 100 recipes are ready Sarah has the relief of being done without actually being done and is in a tired fog This week's guest is Mickey Trescott, who is the blogger behind autoimmune-paleo.com and is a personal chef with amazing recipes to offer Mickey has both celiac and Hashimoto's disease and follows the autoimmune protocol She just released an e-book that is called The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook, which has 110 autoimmune protocol friendly recipes that cover the whole gamut of food needs Stacy was most impressed by the quality of the food photos and "soup to nuts" i.e. the level of information behind the 'why' Stacy feels that her first 90 days on AIP wouldn't have felt so overwhelming and restricting had she had The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook Thanks to supportive friends, Mickey was able to pull together the book at the quality level that she expected Recently Stacy requested that Matt make Julia Child's Chicken Liver Mousse and Stacy is in love with the taste of this dish, and her joints and skin feel and look better after eating this dish with consistency for a week Six months ago if Stacy would have had something with dairy fat in it, she feels like she would have had a major problem, and she is wondering if the livers are counterbalancing the impact of dairy fat or if her hard work to help repair her system is the result of her tolerance Sarah notes that liver is the most nutrient dense food available and the ratio of amino acids is higher in organ meat, which is required for skin and connective tissue - the diary fat is helpful to bone, joint and connective tissue health as well Sarah has been eating a homemade organ meat sausage everyday and is feeling amazing - the bison liver in the recipe is in particular the rockstar of the sausage Stacy is surprised that she is handling the dairy fat Sarah suspects that the raw dairy fat, which has some naturally occurring enzymes, is helping and that Stacy's gut health is in a calm state and not acting overwhelmed by each exposure to possibly problematic foods Stacy knows she is not totally healed, but is surprised and proud to make this discovery regarding her tolerance towards dairy fat - there is a light at the end of the tunnel folks!
