Summary

A big part of a healing diet is learning about personal food intolerances and how they can drive autoimmune symptoms. It's empowering knowledge to have. However, sometimes the list of foods we remove grows and grows, and we make the mistake of thinking that food is the only trigger for autoimmune flares. It’s also common to not replace those calories with enough healthy foods that we can eat. This means we end up in a nutrition deficit. In this podcast, registered dietitian Laura Schoenfeld teaches us how to avoid this trap, how to troubleshoot ongoing symptoms, and how to leave food fear behind.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Phoenix Helix podcast dedicated to maximizing autoimmune health through the paleo diet and lifestyle.
0:07.3	While there is no cure for autoimmune disease, the choices we make every day can have a powerful impact on how we feel.
0:14.4	I'm Eileen Laird, your host from PhoenixHelix.com, and I reduced my rheumatoid arthritis pain by 95% which took me from a life of excruciating
0:24.7	pain and disability back to a full and beautiful life. A short disclaimer, I'm neither a doctor
0:30.8	nor a nutritionist and the opinions expressed here are personal. Always consult with your
0:35.5	health care team before making medical decisions. Now let's get
0:38.7	on to the show. Welcome to Episode 93.

1:07.2	moment.
1:08.3	The food we choose to eat can have a direct impact on our autoimmune symptoms,
1:12.1	and that's how food becomes medicine. However, sometimes there's a side effect. The joy of eating
1:18.2	gets replaced with fear of food. The list of foods we remove grows and grows, and we make the mistake
1:24.7	of thinking that food is the only cause of inflammation.
1:28.2	It's also very common to not replace those calories with enough healthy foods that we can
1:33.0	eat. This means we end up in a nutrition deficit and our bodies need deep nutrition to heal.
1:39.2	So today I'm welcoming Laura Schoenfeld onto the podcast to dive into this deep and complicated conversation.
1:46.5	She is a registered dietitian and well respected in the paleo community. One of her passions is to
1:52.0	help people realize the healing power of food, not just its inflammatory power and how to leave
1:58.1	food fear behind. Welcome to the show, Laura.
2:01.9	Thank you so much for having me, Eileen.
