Why is tiger nut a superfood in the AIP diet?
The topic of health is becoming more important in today's world, marked by the rise of intolerances, allergies, and both physical and mental diseases. Many individuals with a diagnosis outwardly appear healthy, but the hidden aspects of their condition, the things others cannot see, significantly reduce their quality of life. Likewise, people who feel healthy and therefore don't feel the need to take care of their health may be on the path to illness. A condition identified by a diagnosis happens in an instant, but the process leading to the visible symptoms of the body has been long-term and hidden. For this reason, we want to share with you a highly informative article that caught our attention due to its simplicity and clarity of information, which will enrich our awareness of the body, its processes, and the importance of diet in healing and maintaining proper function. Its title is "AIP Diet – Benefits of the Autoimmune Protocol," and you can find it on www.brainmarket.sk.
Why are we writing about the Autoimmune Protocol?
Because we can be helpful to you. Tiger nut is a superfood suitable for people with autoimmune diseases who are following the strict AIP diet, during which all types of nuts are excluded. However, tiger nut is not a nut, but a tuber, and it is absolutely allergen-free. It contains a high amount of fiber and healthy carbohydrates, making it an excellent food for our gut microbiome. During the first elimination phase of the AIP diet, we need to consume nutritionally valuable foods, and tiger nut contains many important minerals for the body, such as magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, iron, potassium, calcium, and copper, vitamins like C, E, B6, B9 (folic acid), B1 (thiamine), and antioxidants. This small tuber also contains protein and Omega-3 fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory effects.
From our product range, some of the granola and creams are also suitable for patients with autoimmune diseases, in addition to the NATURAL products. To summarize: in addition to being completely allergen-free, packed with essential fiber, and full of vitamins, minerals, and unsaturated fatty acids, TIGERNUT products also taste fantastic. If you love sweets and are in a period when you cannot eat anything sweet, TIGERNUT is a healthy sweetness that will save you.
As one of our customers said on Instagram:
“3 months of a strict AIP diet without any allergens is boring, thanks for saving me, tigernutplanet.”
The AIP focuses on healing the digestive tract, achieving hormonal balance, and regulating the immune system, which provides the body with the opportunity to heal itself.

All these positive effects of AIP have been proven by international expert studies, just as the health benefits of tiger nuts have been. Another of our customers, who was in the AIP program at the MEDANTE clinic, said that for her, tiger nuts are a miracle. Another of our customers with an autoimmune disease is in an online AIP program with American doctor Erik M. Osansky, who also recommends consuming tiger nuts. We cooperate with the Czech clinic PONTINA, which recommends tiger nuts to all patients in the program. All these entities, and certainly many others worldwide, have understood that the way to healing does not lie in suppressing the symptoms of the disease, but in curing the root cause of it. Therefore, true healing is not just about diet. Healthy eating and deciding to heal through food is a result of a change in mindset. We are changing our lifestyle to one that is health-promoting, within which we begin to pay more attention to our body and other aspects of our being that, just like the body, need proper nutrition for healthy functioning. So, if we want to truly be healthy or heal, we must remove the cause, and the cause is always some destructive energetic model stored in our subconscious mind that triggers the body's stress response when it’s not a life-threatening situation.
What we want to specifically emphasize in this post is the fact that articles about healthy nutrition, no matter how good they are, just like modern medicine when it comes to treatment, overlook stress as one of the main causes of all diseases. Everyone avoids it because they don't know what to do about it. It's invisible, and diagnoses are made based on physically visible symptoms of the body, which are just a consequence of long-term stress. Doctors can't treat our programs because they don't know them. Today, diagnoses are made, not the causes of diseases. A simpler approach is to determine the diagnosis based on what they see and suppress the symptoms with medication or surgery. Therefore, the responsibility for health lies with us. We not only have the ability to heal ourselves, but also to consciously assist the body in its self-healing, self-regenerating, and self-cleansing processes. We have lived our lives, no one else has. Even though we may not remember many situations, everything we have experienced, absolutely everything, is stored in memories, resonating with a certain frequency. The only path to healing is through self-awareness and inner work with ourselves and the energetic models in our memories. Results will gradually manifest when we remove fear from our memories. The consequence of the absence of fear is that we remove stress from the body, thus allowing it to function as it was created to.
"Diseases should be diagnosed and prevented through an assessment of the energy field."
– George Crile, Sr., founder of the Cleveland Clinic
"The medicine of the future will be based on controlling the energy in the body."
– Professor William Tiller, Stanford University
"Treating people without understanding energy is like treating dead matter."
– Albert Szent-Györgyi, Nobel Prize laureate
The result of this level of awareness will naturally lead to a change in healing methods, from suppressing symptoms to actual healing by removing the cause of the disease. We all know that diseases are psychosomatic, but we don’t know how to heal the mind. We already know how, because we have gone through the entire process, from clear feelings of fear to intangible (unidentifiable) frequencies of fear contained in feelings of shame, inferiority, superiority, etc. It’s a process that takes time and is long-term. But it is the real source of healing because if the cause of the disease is energy manifesting in a destructive energetic model resonating with fear, then it can only be healed by the exact opposite energy, resonating with love. Where there is love, there is no fear, just as where there is light, there is no darkness. If the cause of all diseases is energy, it follows that energy can only be healed with energy. This awareness is the foundation of energy medicine, the medicine of the future. We are energetic beings, and we all have the potential to change our energetic frequencies in our DNA.
Why then must we remove fear from our lives if we want to be healthy?
Fear triggers the body’s stress response. Stress shuts down the immune system, and the cells function in closed mode. They do not absorb nutrients, glucose, or excrete waste because everything that is not essential for life-saving is shut off, and the blood and energy needed for life-saving are directed to the large muscles. "Fight or flight." In a life-threatening situation, we will run like never before and fight "for our lives." Life-saving is the purpose of the stress code, which is in all of our DNA. In life-threatening situations—such as being attacked by an animal or a sudden brake of a car in front of us—fear is justified, but it should last only the necessary amount of time. Otherwise, a toxic environment begins to form, in which cells start dying, degenerating, and may turn against the whole body. In all other situations, fear should have no place in our lives. It is the trigger for the stress response in situations that do not threaten life.
We must live and not be afraid to live. To free the mind from fears and the body and life from stress, we need to program our minds with a conscious acceptance program, which says that everything that happens has a reason, and it is for our best, even if it involves pain. Even that pain is just our mental interpretation based on fear. One door closes, and another one opens. The path already exists, and beneath the surface of forms, everything is interconnected, even if we don’t see it yet. Therefore, mentally assessing situations as good or bad is a sign of ignorance and fear. What we may interpret in the moment as negative and painful, resonating with fear of the future, may later turn out to be the best thing that has ever happened to us. Because everything we experience in life are important lessons for us that guide us toward growth and further evolution. They are as necessary for us as water or food is for the body. Verify these facts. Go back in your memories to past moments and find the key situations that have led you to where you are today. Were they not all ultimately for your best?
