Why aip diet checker matters
The Paleo Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) is an elimination diet designed to reduce inflammation and heal the gut in people with autoimmune conditions. It removes grains, legumes, dairy, eggs, nuts, seeds, and nightshades during the elimination phase.
- Elimination phase removes all potentially inflammatory foods
- Focus on nutrient-dense foods: organ meats, bone broth, vegetables
- Reintroduce foods one at a time after 30-90 days
- Sleep, stress management, and movement are part of the protocol
- Work with a practitioner experienced in autoimmune protocols

What to know about apple juice
Apple juice is one of the most reliable FODMAP triggers there is. Juicing strips out the fibre and concentrates the sugars, so you get a big hit of excess fructose plus sorbitol with nothing to slow it down. It is a very common cause of bloating, gas and diarrhoea, and in young children it is a well-known reason for loose stools, sometimes called toddler’s diarrhoea.
Watch for
- Very high in excess fructose, with more fructose than glucose, which the small intestine absorbs poorly and which pulls water into the gut
- Also high in sorbitol, so it hits two FODMAP pathways at once and is far harder to tolerate than a whole apple
- No fibre left to buffer the sugar load, making it a poor choice for SIBO and for low-FODMAP or DASH eating
- Commercial apple juice can contain added sulfites as a preservative, a separate trigger for sulfite-sensitive people
