Foods You Should Eliminate with Autoimmune Protocol

I wanted to talk to you a little about some of the foods we eliminate with autoimmune protocol reset. 

But first we have to talk about autoimmunity and what it is.

Autoimmunity is when our immune system actually begins to attack our own tissue. We all know that our immune system is there to protect us from outside invaders, whether that’s a virus, bacteria, mold, or something else. 75% of our immune system is in our gastrointestinal system. We may create inflammation  due to  things we eat, breathe in, rub into our skin, etc. Oftentimes the issue begins in the gut, causing a leaky gut. 

If we can decrease the inflammatory foods we consume and allow time for our gut to heal and improve its function, then we are also impacting our immune system. Anytime our gut is functioning better our immune system is functioning better. As you get healthier you realize how sick you really were. 

What we’re doing with the autoimmune protocol is we’re reducing the inflammatory (or potentially inflammatory) foods in our diet for a short period of time. The diets are not meant to be forever, but rather gives the gastrointestinal system time to heal. 

After we’ve completely healed the gut we can begin to add one back in at a time. When we heal the gut it can then begin to handle some of these foods. 

We’re all human and we make little mistakes with our diet, body, and wellness. The things that we do 80-85% of the time are going to be the things that really change our lives. The better we can do everyday the better we’re going to feel. 

Every few months I put together a 21 Day Autoimmune Reset to help people like you. If you’re experiencing symptoms and are completely frustrated, joining us with the reset will do wonders for you. You know you’re feeling inflamed, having joint pain, amongst many other things. You know you’ve had enough and need some help. We’re here for you. 

Reach out to me so you can join us for the next 21 Day Reset. 

Here’s a testimonial from one of our participants in the last 21 Day Reset:

“My testimony to the benefits of changing my food intake thru this reset challenge:

Hello all!  In December I signed up and participated in this 21day autoimmune reset challenge and dramatically changed how I consumed food and focused on nutrition. I followed the meal plans, cut out sugar, gluten, dairy and nightshade veggies. Over the course of the 21days my colitis symptoms lessened exponentially-joint swelling resolved completely and I lost 14lbs. I felt so good by the end of the 21days I decided to continue on this diet regimen. I still avoid dairy and sugar. The only sugar I consume is from fresh whole fruits with an occasional pure maple syrup or raw honey in a recipe. I am also still gluten free. I’ve since reintroduced some nuts and an occasional egg.  I also avoid nightshade veggies for the most part. Due to this change in my nutritional intake, I sleep better at night and continue to remain pain free from joint swelling.  I am also able to control, almost fully, the symptoms I suffer from colitis. Thank you Dr. Christine and Danielle for putting this program together.  “

Evolving As Humans With The Right Nutrition And Lifestyle

Have you ever thought about the similarities between how the human body and a computer works?

When a computer is asked to do something it’s written in code. That code allows the computer to know how to react to the environment that it’s in, what it should be doing, and what tasks to complete. 

Our human body is very similar to this. Our code comes in in the form of the food that we eat and the environment that we’re in, our light sources and the exposure to light. These are sources of information which together tell our bodies what they need to do next. 

I want to specifically talk about nutrition and food as code. As we evolved as humans, we evolved outside. How we evolved is how we became our best selves. The food, environment, light, and all of our surroundings told our bodies where they were. 

If you didn’t have grocery stores, delivery services, and everything else that we have nowadays, what would we be eating? We wouldn’t be eating bananas where I live in Michigan, that’s for sure. 

So with our environment, it can confuse our bodies depending on what we’re eating if we are not eating food that matches our environment.  When we confuse our body’s computer coded input (food and light) we create a mismatch of information for our mitochondria to try to resolve.  This often creates mitochondrial dysfunction.

When our mitochondria are working well then we have more cellular energy and vitality. When they’re burdened and not working well, that’s when you have disease. Because of this, it’s very important to be mindful of what you’re eating, and during what times of the day and year. We’re using our code and the way we evolved to adjust through our lifestyle. The same things goes for when we sleep and how much light we’re taking in. 

We all know that when we give our body’s the right things, we’re healthier, and when we don’t we’re less healthy. But when we’re sick we don’t think so much about how we can lessen our sickness. How can you improve the symptoms that you have when you’re sick? 

When we make bad choices we progress closer and closer to illness. So shouldn’t it be the same for when we are making good choices?  Shouldn’t this help us progress closer to being healthy? YES, ABSOLUTELY! 

It makes sense, and it works. It’s part of the process I use with functional medicine. 

I want to help you make those good choices and live healthy again.

Sleeping Tips That Will Have You Feeling Refreshed

I wanted to give you a few tips on recovery and sleep.

Sleep is so important to our overall health. It’s the time when our bodies adjust, rebalance, clear out toxins, recover muscle damage, and so much more. 

Especially in today’s day and age, our motors are always revving. Because of this it’s that much more important that we’re able to cool the brain down at night time and remove the toxins that were created. When we do that we improve the brain function, not only for the next day, but for the rest of your life. When we don’t get enough quality sleep we develop plaques in our brain. Those plaques contribute to Alzheimer’s disease. Sleep is incredibly important, not only for our comfort and recovery, but our brain health. 

Sleep is free. You just have to choose to do it, and in the right way. 

What can you do to improve sleep?

Here’s 4 simple tips:

  1. Sleep hygiene 
  2. Remove electronics from your bedroom
  3. Blue blocking glasses 
  4. Do not eat within 2-3 hours before bedtime 

With the implementation of these 4 simple tips, you can improve your sleep quality immensely. 

If you’re still struggling to sleep after using these 4 tips then there may be something else that’s going on. There may be a root cause problem for this. It’s something that may need to be looked at on a deeper level.
