I want to clarify, eating "peatarian" has reversed many issues I had with the AIP and Paleo diet (energy, happiness, satiety, weight issues to name a few). I would much rather continue eating the way I am now than reverting back to AIP.
Now despite the progress, my peat diet has actually exacerbated one health issue I had corrected with AIP: diet induced joint pain. If I eat grains, beans, dairy, and maybe other foods (grains and beans are the worst) i'm certain to suffer from what feels like tendinitis in both knees/hip flexors/fingers/wrists/ankles ect. Eating a low glycemic, heavy vegetable diet and antioxidant diet helped to reverse the pain. I did dumb things in my early 20s to put on weight (prior to paleo or peat) like consuming raw oats and large burritos filled with whole grains and beans on a daily basis. It was around this time my symptoms originally manifested. I now understand why
So i'd gladly take personal advice, but i'm also interested in your theories and opinions on: why would AIP help to fix joint pain when ray peat has made it worse? Is the mechanism an increase in stress hormones? AIP surely can't be the only way to fix what seems like a malfunctioning hyperactive immune system.
My theories from reading all over the forums (and considering my past) point to digestive system/endotoxin/stomach bacteria. But I stumble upon more and more theories in random threads every day, so I thought i'd ask specifically. (recently read about the link between liver/protein digestion and food intolerance)
Please help me get rid of the joint pain. I really enjoy lifting weights and I can't do that with peat eating like I could on AIP. Any thoughts?
