How Does The Autoimmune Protocol Work? The Autoimmune Protocol, also known as AIP, is an elimination-reintroduction diet designed to stop and reverse autoimmune disease by: Lowering systemic inflammation in the body Repairing the gastrointestinal tract Improving digestion and nutrient absorption Rebalancing hormones Determining food sensitivities Getting Started on the AIP Diet The Auto-Immune Protocol Made Simple The food we eat fuels our bodies and affects every function from our metabolism to our immunity. If we consume food that is less than healthy, over time our bodies will begin to feel the effects of it and not function optimally. On the other hand, if we fuel ourselves with the best, most nutrient-dense food we can afford, our bodies will feel the difference almost immediately. For an autoimmune disease to develop, a combination of factors needs to be present: 1. Genetic predisposition 2. Environmental factors (bacterial and viral infections, toxins, pollutants, chemicals, heavy metals, etc.) 3. Poor diet and lifestyle, leading to critical nutrient deficiency, gut dysbiosis (when microorganisms living in the gut are out of balance), and intestinal permeability (leaky gut) Jicama-Mango Salad Prep time 20 minutes | Cook time N/A | Yield 4 to 6 servings This salad is wonderful on its own or with grilled fish or meat.
