About Angie Alt
Angie is changing the game in the way we understand autoimmune diseases, creating a new diet for autoimmunity that is making waves in the medical community, and empowering others to listen to their body and stand up for your symptoms. She is telling us all about her SAD to AIP in 6 program, which foods you should increase or decrease depending on your autoimmunity, and why it is not all about subtraction when it comes to AIP. We are diving into everything from anti-inflammatory fats, to supporting your liver and when it is time to consult a professional.
By mixing Western and natural medicine to find the perfect balance for you, you too can help your immune system function better by feeding it what it needs to help you heal. If you have a recent autoimmune diagnosis or have been dealing with autoimmunity for years, Angie is a wonderful resource for anyone looking to prioritize their health.
