@johnbishop Thank you this info. I got the impression that the "autoimmune diet" was intended for any autoimmune disease. For IBD it would seem to make sense.

I have reactivated Hashimoto's thyroiditis, which AIP helped originally and again after Moderna 1 vaccine injury, High ANA and new autoimmune generalized connective tissue inflammation, plus probable EBV with intense body pain and broad food insensitivities, consquent to first Covid vaccine. Modified AIP to deal with new food problems. Meat became a problem. Really sick and bed-bound from incrdible fatigue and body pain. Gluten and dairy free really helps (SUPPLEMENTS, DIET) helps suppress inflammation. Cannot do most autoimmune meds because of sverely suppressed immune syste and weekly subcu gamma globulin replacement therapy. Anthony Williams "liver preserving diet" in "Cleanse to Heal" has helped. Tons of transdermal C+ patches over areas of swelling-pain (Patdhaid) and DMSO 970-30 Aloe Vera) help reduce inflammation. Essential for me to be low stress or autoimmune attack is immediate, severe, with incredible fatigue, legs, feet, joints, swelling. plus. Any suggestions appreciated. Before Modrna 1, I could include cheese and occasional gluten on AIP diet after strict regime as add ins. Remember, the AIP diet includes coconut, sweet potato, bananas, olive oil, fatty meat (bacon, chcken fat, meat fat), whch can raise calories for those people who need to increase same. Watch for calcium-magnesium supplementation needs on this diet, whch is originally intended as a way to reduce food snsitivities before checking out what your body can tolerate in carefully stepped food add ins. I have found that distilled water plus added mineral supplementaton also helps reduce inflammarion. belong to a Facebook AIP group, and thousands claim they were helped, as was I

If you study autoimmune disease as a whole, there is increasing recognition of nutritional and inflammatory triggers. Root cause may not be food, but reducing the autoimmune response via nutrition has significant science behind it. Another source for info, regarding multiple sclerosis in particular, is Terry Wahls, MD, whose work was initially very personally driven.
