About Whitney

Use to suffer from MS, but through diet and lifestyle she has been able to minimize her symptoms and feels fantastic because of it
She runs her blog to share her experiences, and research and resources that are impacting her along the way


About Eileen

Struggled with rheumatoid arthritis for a long time, but improved her life through paleo at first and then discovered an autoimmune protocol
Her blog symbolizes a rising from the ashes that her life has undergone through her lifestyle choices


About Angie

Has three autoimmune conditions
Found Sarah's blog shortly after being diagnosed with celiac and dove right into the AIP
She experienced a drastic turnaround in her health, and changed her blog voice to reflect her new area of passion


About Christina

Has celiac and hashimoto disease
She shares AIP friendly recipes on her site
Discovering the AIP saved her life in many significant ways


Stacy shared on her experience with an AIP, and what Sarah's resources in particular did for her - find Stacy's book review here

Sarah pulled the information together for The Paleo Approach to understand what was happening in her body, but looked for the topics that would generalize and appeal to a larger population - that is how the book came about

Angie shared on how her mental health improved from adopting the autoimmune protocol and how profound that transformation was
Stacy shared on her experience with panic attacks and how the discovery of health management impacted her ability to better handle life's stressors
Angie feels that The Paleo Approach will be an amazing resource for people to share with their doctors who may not fully understand how to support patients with autoimmune conditions
Eileen feels that The Paleo Approach is both for those who are not familiar with an autoimmune protocol, and those who are well versed with the protocol but need to fine-tune their tactics to address individual symptoms
Sarah shared a bit on the troubleshooting checklist that is available in the book
Eileen has a great post on The Paleo Approach and how to best use it as a tool
Christina agrees with Eileen that the troubleshooting page is a favorite resource within the book - while she fully took on the diet style of the AIP, she had ignored the lifestyle recommendations until reviewing that guide
Sarah has been more surprised by the number of people who are hungry for this information, especially the reactions that have come in through Amazon
Sarah has also been surprised by the emotions that people have shown towards the book, that it has actually brought many to tears
