Navigating AIP Protocol Safely at Korean BBQ Restaurants with MM Food

Korean BBQ is a beloved culinary experience, but adhering to the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) diet can make it challenging. Many traditional dishes contain ingredients like soy, sugar, and nightshades—common triggers for those managing autoimmune conditions. MM Food’s AI-powered app ensures safe dining by translating menus into your native language and analyzing every dish against your dietary restrictions.

Why AIP Diners Struggle at Korean BBQ

Korean BBQ often features marinades with soy sauce, gochujang (red chili paste), or added sugars. Cross-contamination from shared grills and hidden ingredients in side dishes like kimchi (which may contain shrimp paste or garlic) pose additional risks. Without proper guidance, AIP compliance becomes a guessing game.
