If your lipids are high consider cutting down on the plant based fats. There happens to be a lot of them in vegetarian convenient foods. I read the labels. I have to be lactose and gluten free and when I go to places like Trader Joe’s, they have a lot of what seems to be healthy products, but they’re actually very high in fat content!
I also would suggest that exercise isn’t going to interfere with auto immune disease and flares. There’s something else going on. Taking a gentle walk for 30 minutes every day and deep, breathing yoga and making sure you’re doing your laundry standing up and putting away your dishes and reaching May be hard when you first start, but you do need to use your muscles or you lose them. A physical therapist can help you find a happy medium. I’ve suffered with things like gluteal tendinitis and my whole adult life and a program for stretching is really helpful. Maybe try ZAZZEE tart cherry capsules and see if you have any gout going on. They’re $20 on Amazon. I had a lot of inflammatory issues And although that’s different than an autoimmune disease they react similarly. Good luck oh and every once in a while, I’m a bad girl too, but I just feel like crap after I eat bad so I keep it to a minimum 😊

I wish I could say that my autoimmune doesn't interfere with my exercise, but the myalgia makes it difficult to move or is exacerbated by exercise in recent years. It is related to my Hashimoto's because my numbers do not stay consistent. Avocados are actually good for you with good fats. I exercise as much as my body will allow. I am glad you are able to. Tried yoga again after a few years and it aggravates tendons and muscles, not joints. I tried the Stretch Zone for over a year, and it helped some areas, but aggravated the tendons. Acupuncture, Dry Needling, Myofascial Trigger Point therapy, red light therapy, herbals, vitamins all have not really helped. I still move and do YouTube dance and walk videos as much as I can. Forget weights. I am maintaining for now.
