In this episode, Jaime and Marie-Noelle welcome back Mickey Trescott — founder of Autoimmune Wellness, co-creator of the AIP Certified Coach Practitioner Training Program, and one of the pioneers of the Autoimmune Protocol. Mickey joins us to talk about her brand new book, The New Autoimmune Protocol, the first comprehensive update to the protocol since its inception.

If you haven't listened to Episode 2, where Mickey first joined us to discuss the origins of AIP, the AIP Certified Coach Program, and where she saw the protocol heading, we encourage you to go back and check it out.

What we cover in this episode:

  • How the book came together as the culmination of years of work updating AIP, including the transition to Modified AIP that Mickey and the AIP Certified Coach community have been implementing since 2023
  • Why the Transition Phase is now an official, fully developed phase of the protocol with a five-step framework, including baseline tracking, developing your "why," a confidence assessment, selecting a start date, and preparing for elimination
  • What the growing body of AIP research reveals — eight published studies now exist across IBD (Crohn's and ulcerative colitis), Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and rheumatoid arthritis, with consistent patterns of meaningful improvement in approximately three out of four people who implement the elimination phase
  • Why Modified AIP is now Mickey's recommended starting point for most people, and how adding foods like rice, pseudo grains, seeds, and ghee solves real-world barriers around affordability, convenience, and sustainability
  • How the book is designed to serve both self-guided AIP practitioners and AIP Certified Coaches using it as a tool in their practice — and where a coach's skills are best put to use
  • The exciting news on the medical and research frontier, including the NIH NOURISH Autoimmunity Challenge, Capitol Hill advocacy, and why Mickey expects an explosion of new AIP research in the coming years
  • Mickey's closing message: healing doesn't end in the elimination phase — and what sustainable, long-term healing through AIP actually looks like
