AIP Gift Guide

This post contains affiliate links.  Click here to see what that means.

Let’s face it … as AIPers, we’re HARD to buy for! Since that’s the case, I’ve put this AIP Gift Guide together as an easy resource for your friends and family … and for YOU … so you can easily find lots of amazing AIP compliant products, resources and even shops and food services dedicated to the AIP to help support you on your healing journey. 

I’ve done my best to set things up in categories – Subscriptions, Books & Cookbooks, Educational Gifts, Food & Snacks, AIP Lifestyle and of course my Personal Picks! 

Happy Shopping! ♥

What are my personal picks you ask? Here are a few ideas I’ve gifted myself …

Under $25 – Self-Care – A basic facial massage set made from jade or rose-quartz helps melt away stress and keep lymph flow moving. I use mine almost every night while sitting in front of the T.V. It’s easy to use and hard to go wrong with your technique, but there are plenty of free videos for how to use them on  YouTube.
Find this little gem in the Lifestyle section of my AIP Amazon Storefronts – USA / Canada / UK.

Under $25 – Education – The Autoimmune Protocol e-book by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is the go-to resource for everyone on the AIP!  It’s an instant download with life-time updates for just $19.99.

Under $35 – Education / Cookbooks – The Autoimmune Protocol Reintroduction Cookbook – perfect for every stage of the protocol and a great inspiration so you don’t get stuck in food fear and remain too long in the elimination stage or The Healing Mindset – it covers some of the often over-looked reasons we’re not able to progress on our healing journeys.

 

Under $50 – Low-Tech Health Wearables – Designed to enhance the wearer’s concentration, memory, and sense of calm, the eSmartr sleeve is a specialized wearable compression sleeve with Cognitive Boost Technology built in. I was fortunate enough to have been gifted one of these amazing sleeves by a friend and have seen such impressive improvement in my brain fog along with reduction of stress and anxiety that I decided to partner with the company to get you FREE Shipping!  Shop for eSmartr sleeves here and use Code: VA2103SHIP  for free shipping! 
SuperPatch Company is a sister companies to eSmartr – they offer patches that deliver 100% non-invasive, drug-free solutions that support the immune system and provide symptom relief to those suffering from fatigue, brain-fog, pain, balance issues and more! While this all seems to good to be true, I highly recommend giving it a try – my family has seen IMPRESSIVE improvement in symptoms in a short period of time – plus they offer a 30-day money back guarantee. (My full review of these products is coming soon but you’ll find lots of information on how the tech works on their websites – check it out!)

 

Under $50 – Warming Comfort / Self-Care – If you suffer from Raynaud’s Syndrome or Hashimoto’s Disease and your hands are always cold, you’ll want to check out Ocoopa rechargeable handwarmers! They come in a one or two pack and a variety of styles, colors and price ranges to fit any budget.

Under $50 – Self-Care – While it might look a little like a torture device, this simple and inexpensive acupressure mat & pillow set can help support deep sleep, relaxation, healthy circulation, relaxation of tense muscles and relief from stress. When ever I’m having trouble sleeping, I spend a little time on this while listening to nature sounds or a good sleep story and drift off to sleep almost immediately (read more about that here). – USA / Canada / UK 

Various Amounts $ – Kitchen Gadgets, Small Appliances, Sustainable Living, AIP Lifestyle & More – You’ll find a large selection of some of my favorite things in my AIP Amazon Storefronts – USA / Canada / UK. A few things that have been invaluable on my healing journey are – a good quality kettle with a 100% stainless interior, quality water filter, mandolin slicer, glass food containers, massage slippers, a magic bag or heating pad … you won’t be short of ideas in my shops!

Health Tech $100 Range +/-  – Gamification can be a great way to help you reach your health goals of daily movement, hydration, meditation, sleep and stress management. I recently received a gift card from my BFF for Amazon and decided to treat myself to a health tracker I chose the pretty BellaBeat that looks more like jewelry than a watch and I LOVE IT!

Starting out on the AIP, many people turn to the internet for some quick resources, but there are plenty who prefer something tangible to hold in their hands or an e-book to download so everything they need is in one place.

I’ve also had many tell me that due to their autoimmune disease they find it terribly difficult to spend hours on the computer, phone or table reading e-books and they prefer a printed resource they can bookmark and highlight.

No matter what you prefer, I’ve compiled a round-up of AIP and general health resources that I either personally own or that have been recommended by our AIP Recipe Collection members and the AIP Community. Check out the selection of recommended books and cookbooks in my resources section – just click here and scroll down to Good Reads & Cookbooks. You can also find an expanded selection in my Amazon Storefronts – click here for the USA / Canada / UK.
