What to expect

Increase your resilience to autoimmune diseases by following Dr Akil's 5-step plan for a balanced and healthy diet.

Auto-immune disorders like Graves Disease, Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Lupus, Coeliac and even Long-Covid, affect an estimated 300 million people worldwide. These disorders can be frustrating as they are difficult to diagnose, painful and often invisible. Now, with this simple yet powerful 5-step plan devised by Dr Akil Palanisamy, readers can learn to treat, tame and potentially reverse painful autoimmune conditions.

In The T.I.G.E.R. Protocol, Dr Akil Palanisamy uses his training in Western medicine and complementary therapies to create an integrative approach to treat autoimmune diseases. Addressing five key elements - Toxins, Infections, Gut health, Eating right and Rest and balance - this approach has proved remarkably effective for both patients with full-blown disease and those who had been told they were on the path to autoimmunity.

The foundation of this approach is the use of specific healing foods. Diet can be a powerful tool, but autoimmune diets that are typically recommended are often restrictive. Dr Akil's protocol expands the diet to be less draconian while maintaining clinical efficacy, potentially reversing the effects of years of suffering from disease and taking a person off the path to suffering in years to come.

The protocol is split into easy-to-follow Phase 1 and Phase 2 diets, allowing you to eliminate the necessary food sensitivities in the short term and then reintroduce foods to achieve a more diverse and balanced diet. It also includes Dr Akil's top 10 healing foods for the microbiome - including mushrooms, artichokes and dark chocolate.

Critics Review

Dr Akil Palanisamy combines his extensive clinical experience with leading-edge research to create a detailed roadmap to health for those with autoimmune or inflammatory conditions. Filled with the most up-to-date, evidence-based information on the microbiome, environmental toxins and the mind-body connection, The TIGER Protocol is a must read for anyone serious about optimizing their immune health and vitality.

Dr Andrew Weil, world-renowned integrative medicine physician

So often we are led to believe we can rid ourselves of our common ailments with the latest breakthroughs in pharmaceutical science. As so many have experienced, this approach generally disappoints. Dr. Akil provides us with foundational information, empowering the reader with a straightforward action plan to reverse disease and pave the way for optimal health. We need to take his teachings seriously as they are a gift.

Dr David Perlmutter, New York Times bestselling author of Grain Brain and Drop Acid

What if there is a much better way to get to the root of autoimmune disease so that you can either halt it in its tracks or reverse it? Dr. Akil Palanisamy provides a revolutionary integrative-medicine approach that does just that!

Dr Victoria Maizes, executive director, Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona

Autoimmune disease has increased in prevalence over the past forty years and is now poised to be one of the leading causes of both shortened life span and quality of life. Unfortunately, the accepted strategies to manage these conditions are not infrequently as concerning as the disease itself. Fortunately, Dr. Akil has developed an approach to address the many factors contributing to autoimmunity. If you or someone you love suffers from autoimmunity, this book revolutionizes our understanding of autoimmune diseases.

Robb Wolf, New York Times bestselling author of Wired to Eat

One in six Americans now suffer from autoimmunity, and conventional treatment is focused on suppressing symptoms with drugs. The TIGER Protocol offers a natural and effective ‘root cause’ approach to healing autoimmune disease based on Dr. Akil’s unique blend of functional medicine, ayurveda, and ancestral nutrition. I recommend this book to anyone seeking a more holistic approach to autoimmune disease.

Chris Kresser, New York Times bestselling author of The Paleo Cure

In The TIGER Protocol, Dr. Palanisamy has created a fantastic, groundbreaking guidebook for treating autoimmune disease that empowers readers with science-backed actionable tools to optimize their health and well-being.

A holistic and clinically proven approach to treating autoimmune disease that can help millions of people afflicted by this epidemic.

Dr. William Li, New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Disease and Eat to Beat Your Diet

The TIGER Protocol is an invaluable evidence-based guide to the current state of knowledge about autoimmune disease and is designed to empower patients in living well with chronic illness. It is also a state-of-the-art resource for professionals who want the newest perspective on autoimmune disease and wish to effectively improve the quality of life of their patients. I strongly recommend keeping this unique clinical resource close at hand on your bookshelf.
