So, I was wondering if anyone else had read Dr. Terry Wahls' books on nutrition/special diets for autoimmunity? I've done most of her suggestions, and pushed my ANA numbers for Lupus into remission. I would consider that fairly successful, considering that 4 years ago my Lupus nephritis was bad enough doctors were discussing whether or not I would live through a kidney transplant (recovered enough kidney function to not need more than temporary support, thank goodness).

Mostly, but more avoidance of starchy roots like carrots and yams that are allowed on most variations of Paleo. It's kind of like a cross between Paleo and Ketogenic.
