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 nectarine

A nectarine is essentially a fuzzless peach, and its smooth skin hides the same three stone-fruit triggers: it is a histamine liberator, high in salicylates, and high in the sugar alcohol sorbitol (a polyol FODMAP). People often ask whether nectarines are gentler than peaches because they have no fuzz, but the skin texture does not change the chemistry, and reactions like itching, hives, flushing or bloating are common even though the fruit itself is low in histamine.

Watch for

  • Histamine liberator, so it can trigger itching, hives, flushing or headaches even though a nectarine is not high in histamine itself
  • High in salicylates, a frequent culprit if you react to aspirin or other salicylate-rich fruit like berries and dried fruit
  • High in sorbitol, a polyol FODMAP that pulls water into the gut and can cause bloating, gas or loose stools, especially past one fruit
  • Being fuzzless does not make it milder than a peach: the histamine, salicylate and sorbitol load is effectively the same
