A Brief Explanation of the Autoimmune Paleo (AIP) Diet
The Autoimmune Paleo (AIP) diet is a therapeutic approach designed to support individuals with autoimmune conditions. This diet focuses on eliminating foods that are known to trigger inflammation and immune responses in the body. It involves removing common allergens and potential irritants such as grains, dairy, legumes, processed foods, refined sugars, and nightshade vegetables. The AIP diet emphasizes nutrient-dense foods like lean proteins, vegetables, fruits, healthy fats, and fermented foods. By following the AIP diet, individuals aim to reduce inflammation, heal the gut, and support their immune system. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian before starting the AIP diet to ensure proper guidance and support.
