What Is The AIP Diet?
February 26, 2019
The autoimmune protocol (AIP) diet is intended to help individuals identify, and remove foods that cause allergic or inflammatory reactions that may be interfering with their body's natural functions. These reactions include headaches, tiredness, cramps and soreness, thyroid disease, and arthritis. Unlike other diets, the AIP diet is not meant to be a long-term lifestyle change. The most restricted form of the diet is meant to be followed for only a limited time. After following an extremely restricted diet, patients can slowly reintroduce foods to isolate and identify the ones that are harmful to them.
