Anklylosing Spondylitis and Diet: Best Damn Pot Roast
This is seriously my favorite pot roast recipe ever. I’ve adopted a recipe I originally found on the great Mark Sisson’s website and have made it my own. The spice rub is Mark’s, but the rest is my own take. Give it a try and you’ll never look at pot roast the same way again. [...]

Keep Your Balls in Check
There is a tendency to TRY EVERYTHING when searching for a cure for ankylosing spondylitis. That’s fine in theory, but if in executing this idea you try everything at once then how will you know for sure which single thing is working? Having 5 new balls in the air all of a sudden is difficult [...]

Half a cow
I was listening to the radio while driving the other day and heard a story about how one of our biggest exports here in Colorado is beef.

About this website
My name is Bob Connors and I have successfully treated my autoimmune disease, ankylosing spondylitis, using a No-Starch diet. Why not use your seemingly awful diagnosis (incurable genetic disorder...fun!) as an opportunity to realize your own optimal health? I'm 100% medication-free and am using diet alone to control my AS. I've become stronger and healthier than I ever was before my diagnosis by adhering to a whole foods (if you can't kill it or pick it, don't eat it!) diet and healthy lifestyle. If you have spinal fusions then unfortunately the damage is irreversible, but I'm living proof that diet can be used to avoid any further flares. So, in effect, you will have cured yourself of AS. Read on and feel free to email with any questions, or submit a question above in the "General Questions" tab and I'll answer asap. I honestly see my AS diagnosis as net positive on my life. Good Luck! Bob Connors bobconnors@gmail.com
