Summary

If you’re a regular listener of my podcast, you know that I start every year with a Healing Stories episode. It features back-to-back interviews with autoimmune warriors just like you! I ask them to share their journey from rock bottom to reclaiming a vital life. In this episode, we talk about Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Hidradenitis Suppurativa, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Susac Syndrome. and also autoimmunity in general. Everyone’s story is unique, but we also have so much in common. Whatever your diagnosis, I hope these stories resonate and inspire.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Phoenix Helix podcast dedicated to autoimmune resilience. While there is no cure for
0:06.5	autoimmune disease, the choices we make every day can have a powerful impact on how we feel. I'm Eileen
0:12.4	Laird, your host. In this podcast, I interview experts in the fields of nutrition, lifestyle, mindset,
0:19.4	and integrative medicine. I also interview people with
0:22.5	autoimmune disease just like you. We can learn so much from each other. This podcast is named

1:29.5	from rock bottom to reclaiming a vital life. Everyone's story is unique, but we also have so much in

1:48.9	or trying the paleo autoimmune protocol for the first time.
1:52.9	Shop AIP is here to make that easier for you.
1:55.6	They sell hundreds of shelf-stable pantry items for the elimination phase of the paleo-autoimmune protocol
2:02.2	and products labeled by reintroduction category as well, because the elimination phase is not
2:08.2	meant to last forever. So to give you some examples of what's available, they sell AIP-friendly,
2:15.0	spice blends, nightshade-free sauces and condiments, quick proteins like
