Cayenne Pepper (NOT AIP)
One of the best things you can do for your hair, skin, and nails is to increase blood circulation. Increased circulation to the nail bed can help your nails grow faster and stronger.

Therefore, it is generally avoided during the elimination phase of the AIP diet. You can try to reintroduce this spice after the 30-day period. Try a small amount and listen to your body - it will tell you what it can and cannot have! To find out more about AIP... CONTACT US, we care about you.

During the initial phase of the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) diet, which typically lasts for 30 days, certain foods and ingredients are usually eliminated to help identify potential triggers and reduce inflammation.
Some Caution Must Be Used for Any Food or Supplement when Autoimmune
While the AIP diet primarily focuses on food groups, some herbs and spices are also restricted during this phase due to their potential to stimulate the immune system or cause sensitivities. Based on this, the following herbs from your list may not be recommended during the first 30 days of the AIP diet:
Cayenne Pepper: Cayenne pepper is a spice that can be quite stimulating and may exacerbate inflammation or sensitivities for some individuals. Therefore, it is generally avoided during the elimination phase of the AIP diet.
Fennel Seed: Fennel seed, although generally considered safe, may have estrogenic effects and can potentially affect hormone balance. It is typically eliminated during the initial phase of the AIP diet.
Rosemary Leaf: Rosemary is an herb with potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. While it is generally well-tolerated, it may still be avoided during the first 30 days of the AIP diet to ensure a more comprehensive elimination of potential triggers.
