Good evening. I am very excited to join this community. I started the paleo diet about a week ago after the book was recommended to me for my rheumatoid arthritis. I can already feel the difference but it isn't easy with two toddlers and the food they eat. My husband is so supportive though. I do struggle to find some of the foods that are discussed and suggested in paleo recipes. I will keep looking though. Good night.

Hi. No, I am just trying to get my head around the paleo diet. When I get that right I will try to eliminate the rest to be AIP. I will need some help with that I think. Are you?

Yes I'm on AIP and I love it. Bec of other diet restrictions due to religion now with paleo I have tons of restrictions yet I still enjoy my food even more. My skin hair n nails are in great shape and I'm 'regular' if you know what I mean? . Hoping for symptom relief and healing soon!

hi I am also from South Africa. have been on thyroid meds for 23 years without knowing why. I became seriously ill November 2014 after a year from . The homeopath diagnosed me with inflamation of the thyroid and that led me to Paleo. have been trying strictly Paleo since December. Lost 8 kilograms of dead weight. I have to start AIP from 1 April. what? No tomatoes, no potatoes no dairy? What is left? I live in a drought stricken area with very few fresh vegetables. I am confused, uncertain and about to throw in the towel. Most of the important foods mentioned in the Paleo books don't exist in our neck of the woods. At the moment I am suffering from a stiff neck which causes a massive headache and deppression. Docters around here are very conservative and only recommend anti-inflammatory pills. I live on a small farm where my husband, son and myself take in abandoned and mistreated animals. I really need a whole lot of energy to cope. At the moment I do feel better than I did last year, but I feel as if I am on a downward slope again.
