Book excerpt: ★ What is Aip Diet? ★ The Auto Immune Protocol (AIP) is a diet recommended for those suffering from autoimmune diseases or pain and with a high degree of systemic inflammation, but also for those interested in a deep detoxification of the organism or in doubt that some very common foods, and normally allowed in other food plans, can be a source of intolerance. ★ Why Aip Diet? ★ It is a therapeutic elimination and reintroduction diet that has a solid scientific basis, created for autoimmune diseases. But also a therapeutic diet to fill nutritional deficiencies, to rebalance the microbiome, to reduce intestinal inflammation and treat the leaky gut, for hormonal balance, to increase antioxidant defenses, to regain energy, to reduce systemic inflammation (and the cardiovascular consequences). The effects on weight control are there but, in my opinion, secondary and a consequence of the recovery of health and well-being. We talk about the Autoimmune Protocol when there are autoimmune disorders or diseases associated with impaired intestinal permeability (leaky gut) with an autoimmune response, such as: rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease, depression, type 1 diabetes, hypothyroidism, Crohn's disease, narcolepsy, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, Hashimoto's, thyroiditis, vitiligo... All of these diseases share a common cause: damage to the intestinal mucosa that makes the intestines permeable and causes the response of an autoimmune disease. A healthy intestine allows the absorption of nutrients and creates a barrier against toxins and allergenic substances by blocking their passage. When the intestine becomes permeable, the mucous membrane of the intestinal defensive barrier tears, enlarging the meshes and the toxins overcome the intestinal barrier and pour into the blood causing various types of disorders. Intestinal permeability is caused by various factors, often due to a harmful diet: among the main culprits are cereals which, as we know, contain lectins, legumes and nightshades also contain saponins, substances that can cause intestinal permeability. ★ How does it work? ★ It is an elimination diet. This means that it provides for the exclusion of some food groups to observe the effects on health in the following weeks (3-6 weeks). In the first phase, foods and drugs that could be linked to intestinal inflammation or microbiota imbalances are eliminated. Especially products and foods that are known to cause allergies or unwanted reactions are evaluated. Elimination Phase Cereals, Solanaceae, Seeds, Legumes, Additives, Dairy product, Dried fruit, Eggs, Tobacco, Alcohol, Vegetable oils, Refined sugars, Coffee, Processed foods, Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac and high-dose aspirin. Reintroduction Phase As soon as an improvement in the symptoms of the autoimmune disease is perceived, the reintroduction phase begins, which consists of gradually inserting the discarded foods, one at a time according to the level of personal tolerance. The goal is to recognize the foods that trigger symptoms. At the same time, neutral foods (which do not cause any symptoms) are reintroduced to ensure a more varied and complete diet. ♥ So, starting from a concept of CLEAN FOOD, we have created 80 easy recipes, accessible to beginners and not, to approach this food plan, experiment with it and immediately feel the benefits. ✓Enjoy the Diet, Enjoy new life !!!
