Navigating Fijian Lovo Feasts on the AIP Diet: A Stress-Free Guide

Fijian Lovo feasts are a vibrant celebration of culture, featuring earth-cooked meats, root vegetables, and tropical flavors. But for those on the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) diet, navigating this traditional culinary experience can feel overwhelming. With mm food’s smart technology, you can savor the feast safely and confidently.

The Challenge for AIP Diners

Traditional Lovo dishes often include nightshades (like peppers), dairy-based sauces, or gluten-containing marinades – all restricted on AIP. Language barriers and unfamiliar ingredients can make it hard to identify hidden triggers.
