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 radish
Radish is close to spotless on the usual suspects: no histamine, no lactose, no gluten, no oxalate, no nickel, no lectins, not a nightshade. Its one genuine flag is salicylates, where it grades high. If a salad leaves you flushed, itchy or headachy and you already cleared the obvious triggers, the peppery radish slices are a fair place to look, because salicylates are concentrated in exactly the sharp, bitter compounds that give radish its bite.
Watch for
- High in salicylates.Radish is one of the stronger salicylate vegetables, and because it is eaten raw in handfuls rather than cooked down, a single salad can carry a real dose
- Moderate on FODMAPs by volume.A few slices are fine for most sensitive guts, but a big raw bowl can bring gas and bloating
- Fermented radish is a different food.Kimchi radish and takuan pickles gain histamine during fermentation even though fresh radish itself is low histamine
- Radish leaves and sprouts are sharper still, so microgreens and radish tops concentrate the same salicylate character into a smaller serving
