AIP Ingredient Checker App
AIP-style shopping changes with elimination, reintroduction, clinician guidance, and personal tolerance. IngrediCheck helps you scan packaged foods against saved autoimmune protocol rules, flag grains, legumes, dairy, nightshades, seed spices, gums, and additive patterns, and keep the result phase-aware instead of pretending one rule fits everyone.
What It Catches
- Common AIP-style conflicts such as grains, legumes, dairy, eggs, nightshade ingredients, nuts, seeds, seed spices, and added sugars.
- Packaged-food details that often need review, including gums, emulsifiers, seed oils, spice blends, starches, and flavor systems.
- Products where elimination, reintroduction, medical guidance, or personal tolerance should shape the final decision.
Workflow
- 1.Save the AIP-style rule you are actually using for the current phase.
- 2.Scan the barcode or ingredient panel and review direct conflicts separately from needs-review ingredients.
- 3.Use the related AIP, paleo, and nightshade guides when a label depends on reintroduction or clinical context.

Ingredient profiles
Seed oils
Seed oils are common edible oils used in cooking, frying, dressings, sauces, and packaged foods. They are controversial mostly because internet claims treat a broad class of oils as one ingredient with one health outcome.
Carrageenan
Carrageenan is a seaweed-derived thickener used in dairy alternatives, chocolate milk, deli meat, whipped toppings, and desserts. It is useful in manufacturing because it helps liquids stay smooth and suspended.
Xanthan gum
Xanthan gum is a fermentation-derived thickener that shows up in gluten-free baking, sauces, dressings, and frozen desserts. It is often the ingredient that gives wheat-free products enough structure to hold together.
MSG
MSG is a flavor enhancer used in savory packaged foods such as soups, noodles, snacks, and seasoning systems. It matters because it remains legally accepted by mainstream regulators while still carrying unusually strong cultural baggage in clean-label and retailer discussions.

FAQ
Common questions
Can IngrediCheck replace medical guidance for autoimmune conditions?
No. Autoimmune conditions and elimination diets should be managed with appropriate clinical guidance. IngrediCheck is a label-screening aid, not a diagnosis or treatment tool.
Why does an AIP scan need saved rules?
AIP-style plans can change across elimination and reintroduction phases, so saved rules help the scan reflect the shopper's current plan instead of a rigid permanent blacklist.
Which packaged foods are most worth scanning for AIP-style rules?
Sauces, dressings, spice blends, snacks, protein products, prepared meals, and additive-heavy labels are often the best candidates for a first-pass scan.
