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 pork loin
Pork loin is the lean roasting joint, and as fresh meat it is one of the cleaner proteins: low in histamine, gluten free, low FODMAP and free of dairy, sulfites and nickel. The catch is that a loin is cooked as a large joint and eaten over several days, and that is exactly where histamine intolerance gets caught out. A roast that is carved, chilled and served again mid-week has aged in the fridge, and reheated roast pork carries far more histamine than the slice you ate straight from the oven.
Watch for
- Freshly roasted loin is low histamine, but a big joint eaten as leftovers over two or three days keeps building histamine while it sits: portion and freeze what you will not eat the first day
- Lean loin is low salicylate on its own; glazes, honey-mustard crusts and fruit sauces are where salicylates and added sugars come in
- Graded moderate on oxalate, which is only a consideration if you are actively managing oxalate or kidney stones
