If you’ve ever looked at an AIP-friendly recipe and thought, this looks amazing…but I don’t have the energy for multiple pans and a sink full of dishes, this episode is for you. For many of us, the hardest part of eating well with autoimmune disease isn’t knowing what to eat—it’s figuring out how to make nourishing food work on ordinary days. The tired days. The ...
Beyond the Recipe: Cilantro Coconut Chicken and Rice with Mary | Small Bite (Ep 068)
Starting an Autoimmune-Friendly Movement Routine with Beth Trimark-Connor (Ep 67)
When you’re living with autoimmune disease, movement can feel loaded. You may know it’s “supposed” to help—but figuring out how to start in a way that feels safe, supportive, and sustainable is another story. Questions like How much is too much? What if I flare? What if my body can’t handle what it used to? leave many people stuck between avoiding movement altogether and pushing ...
Kitchen Confidence: Your AIP Kitchen Starter Kit (Small Bite) | Episode 66
Over the years, I’ve taught AIP cooking classes and workshops in community kitchens, conference centers, and online classrooms. One of the clearest patterns I’ve seen is this: The way someone sets up their kitchen has a direct impact on how sustainable their time on AIP is. When a pantry is organized, when foundational ingredients are easy to find, when there’s a reliable pot for soup ...
AIP for Hashimoto’s: The Polish Study on Nutrient Density, Symptoms & Thyroid Health
When we think about the Autoimmune Protocol, we often focus on what people feel: less fatigue, clearer thinking, fewer digestive issues, better mood, and improved quality of life. Those outcomes matter—but they also raise a deeper question: What changes can we actually measure inside the body, especially in autoimmune thyroid disease—where labs may look “normal,” yet symptoms persist? In Episode 65 of the Autoimmune Wellness ...
From Flare to Flow: Lynn Rester on Staying Grounded While Healing Takes Time (Ep 64)
When most people picture “healing,” they imagine the part where everything is resolved—when the flare is over, the lesson is clear, and the path forward makes sense. But autoimmune life is usually lived in the middle. In Episode 64 of the Autoimmune Wellness Podcast, I’m introducing a new series called From Flare to Flow—conversations about what it looks like to navigate autoimmune life in real ...
AIP for IBD: The Gene Expression Study & Patient Experience Survey (Episode 63)
When we talk about the Autoimmune Protocol, most of the conversation centers on symptoms: fewer flares, less pain, better digestion, improved quality of life. Those outcomes matter deeply—but they also raise an important question: What’s actually changing inside the body? And how does AIP play out for people outside of tightly controlled clinical trials? In Episode 63 of the Autoimmune Wellness Podcast, I continue the ...
Meal Plan Makeover: Improving Energy and Satisfaction (Episode 62)
Following the Autoimmune Protocol “by the book” doesn’t always guarantee that you’ll feel energized, satisfied, or well nourished—especially during the Elimination phase. In this Small Bite episode of the Autoimmune Wellness Podcast, Mickey Trescott introduces a new practical series called Meal Plan Makeover, where she reviews real-life AIP meal plans and shows how small, strategic adjustments can significantly improve energy, satiety, and sustainability. Using an ...
AIP for Hashimoto’s: The Pioneering Abbott Pilot Study & Case Reports (Episode 61)
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is the most common autoimmune disease in the world—and yet for many people, treatment still feels incomplete. Even when thyroid labs fall within “normal” ranges, symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, pain, digestive issues, anxiety, and low mood often persist. For years, patients have been told that if their numbers look good, they should feel fine. But lived experience tells a different story. In ...
