Episode 51: The Autoimmune Protocol in 2026

There’s a lot of confusion about the Autoimmune Protocol—what it is, what it isn’t, and whether it actually works. In this episode, Mickey cuts through the noise to share the real story behind AIP and how it’s evolved in 2026.

As someone who’s been part of the AIP movement since the very beginning, Mickey explains how AIP grew from a grassroots experiment into a research-backed framework used worldwide to support people living with autoimmune disease. She also breaks down the major 2024 update to AIP, including the introduction of Core AIP and Modified AIP, and how to decide which approach is right for you.

This episode kicks off the AIP Deep Dive series and lays the foundation for using AIP as a temporary, educational process—not a lifelong restrictive diet.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

1. What the Autoimmune Protocol really is (and what it’s not)
2. How AIP evolved from patient experimentation to published research
3. The three phases of AIP: Transition, Elimination, and Reintroduction

Let's be honest.

There is a ton of conflicting information about The Autoimmune

Protocol, otherwise known as AIP.

Some of it's old, some of it is overly complicated, and some of it even gets

the science or the details wrong.

Over the past 15 years, AIP has gone viral in autoimmune and wellness communities.

It's been shared in forums, on social media, and by

practitioners all over the world.

I've been a part of this movement since the very beginning, and I've watched

AIP grow from this very small grassroots experiment to a research-backed framework

that has helped thousands of people.

But even with all of that visibility, there's still a lot

of confusion and controversy about what AIP is and how it works.

So in this episode, I'm going to cut through all that noise.

I'm going to give you the real story about where AIP came from, how it's evolved,

what the latest science says, and how to know if it's the right fit for you.

Welcome to the Autoimmune Wellness Podcast.

I'm your host, Mickey Trescott, and before we begin, a quick note that

this podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.

You should always consult your qualified healthcare providers before making any

changes to your diet or treatment plan.

So a little bit about me.

I am a functional nutritionist, I'm the author of four books about

living well with autoimmune disease, and I've been a part of the AIP

movement since the very beginning.

I'm an autoimmune patient myself, living with Hashimoto's

thyroiditis, celiac disease, and most recently psoriatic arthritis.

I discovered AIP when it was just a theoretical framework and a handful

of us were experimenting and sharing our results online, trying to get

well when we ran out of options.

After experiencing my own success recovering my health using AIP, I went

back to school to study nutrition and transitioned my previous career as a

personal chef to writing recipes and creating resources for people who wanted

to implement the Autoimmune Protocol.

As interest in AIP exploded, I've been lucky to play a role in facilitating

medical research into using AIP for different autoimmune conditions, and

in training over a thousand healthcare providers through the AIP Certified

Coach practitioner training program.

Now I'm telling you all of this to demonstrate that I have seen AIP

from every angle, both personally as an autoimmune patient and

professionally as a teacher.

I have been here since the very beginning of the movement.

I've seen how powerful this approach can be, and I've also seen how

confusing it can get when incorrect or outdated information spreads.

So, that's why I'm starting this AIP Deep Dive series to give you

the real story grounded in science and lived experience from those who

have been here since the beginning.

So let's start with some background.

Autoimmune disease affects tens of millions of people, most commonly

women, and includes conditions like Hashimoto's thyroiditis, rheumatoid

arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, and inflammatory bowel

disease, along with many dozens of others.

Seriously, there are over 100 confirmed autoimmune conditions.

They are now among the leading causes of chronic illness worldwide.

And for many of us, the road to an autoimmune diagnosis

is long and discouraging.

We're told that our labs look normal, that our symptoms are perhaps just

caused by stress, and we're often stuck managing with medications that

are often not completely effective, maybe they have scary side effects.

And if you are currently navigating this new diagnosis

process, just know that I see you.

I have certainly been there too.

Back in my twenties, I was dealing with unexplained fatigue,

anxiety, hair loss, and pain.

And when I finally got my first diagnosis of Hashimoto's and celiac disease, after

years of struggling, I was told that I just needed to wait and see while

my condition continued to get worse.

So I started to search for something that I could implement on my

own, and that search is what led me to The Autoimmune Protocol.

Now using AIP, it gave me a sense of direction that I hadn't felt in years.

I began with the Elimination Phase, which we'll talk about in a little bit, focusing

on foods that were simple and nourishing, and also paying closer attention to how

my lifestyle habits affected my symptoms.

Now, my progress came really slowly.

At first, there were ups and downs.

Plenty of times where I doubted if it was even going to be helpful to me at all.

But over time things started to shift.

Now to be clear, AIP didn't cure my autoimmune disease, and I actually take

issue with people who use that word in terms of managing autoimmune conditions.

But AIP definitely helped me rebuild stability and hope at a

time where I felt really lost.

It marked a major turning point in my healing journey, and one

that taught me that I could rely on myself to dig deep and find

out what supported my best health.

What we know of as AIP today took shape around 2011 when a small community of

autoimmune patients connected online.

I was one of them.

We were sharing our stories, comparing notes, and experimenting with food

and lifestyle changes to see what helped us best manage our conditions.

Back then, there was no official plan to The Autoimmune Protocol.

There were just some rough lists of foods to remove, spreadsheets of experiments

and a lot of curiosity and hope.

I was working as a personal chef at the time and I began developing recipes that

fit what people were finding helpful.

Those recipes became my first book, the Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook, which

was the very first book fully dedicated to AIP recipes and meal plans, and it

helped thousands of people get started.

As the AIP community grew, the science really caught up and researchers like

Dr. Sarah Ballantyne began writing about the connections between gut health,

immune activation, dietary triggers, helping to define that very first

theoretical version of AIP that served as a roadmap for many early adopters.

Within a few years, AIP exploded in popularity.

The website that I started to share my story and recipes was reaching

millions of people every year.

Healthcare providers even began using the protocol under

supervision with their patients.

And by 2015, research teams at places like Scripps in San Diego were putting

together clinical studies to look into how AIP might be helpful for managing specific

autoimmune conditions, which was amazing.

What began as a grassroots experiment became this global movement, one that

continues to shape how autoimmune disease is understood and supported across both

conventional and functional medicine.

Today, AIP stands as one of the most widely recognized patient-led frameworks

for improving autoimmune wellness, grounded in both community experience

and growing scientific evidence.

So what is The Autoimmune Protocol really?

In a nutshell, AIP is an evidence-based framework that helps people

with autoimmune disease identify which foods and lifestyle factors

support or hinder their health.

It's built around the idea that by temporarily removing the most

common immune triggers and then carefully reintroducing them, you

can learn how your body responds.

Now AIP is not a one-size-fits-all protocol, and it's not a

diet to follow forever.

It's a structured learning process that unfolds in three main phases,

the Transition Phase, the Elimination Phase, and the Reintroduction Phase.

Now, when you take your time through each of these phases, the full

process typically spans about six months, but it is flexible and there

could be some variation in there.

Some people move a little faster, others a little slower,

and that is completely normal.

First, we'll discuss the Transition Phase where you'll be preparing for change.

This is where everything begins, and you set up a foundation for success

before you even remove one single food.

Instead of diving straight into elimination, you're going to spend

a few weeks preparing, getting your mindset, your kitchen, and your

routines ready for making a change.

There are five key steps that you're going to focus on during transition.

The first thing you're going to do is track your baseline symptoms.

So this is going to be just taking a simple accounting of how you're feeling

right now, your energy, your sleep, digestion, pain, mood and skin health,

any symptoms related to your condition.

This is going to help you measure progress later.

The second thing you're going to do is clarify your motivation.

So you're going to want to define "why" you're doing this.

It might be to reduce fatigue, improve digestion, or finally get some

answers about how your diet and your lifestyle connect to your symptoms.

And this "why" is really important to keep you grounded when things get hard.

The third thing you're going to do is assess your readiness.

Many people come to AIP with different barriers to implementing

the Elimination Phase.

So you're going to want to look at your schedule, your budget, your cooking

skills, and your support system.

And it's not about perfection.

We're not going to want to eliminate every single thing and make sure

that we're ready in every way, but it's about planning ahead for what's

realistic in your life right now.

And then next you're going to be practicing anything that is going

to help you modify any of those areas where you don't feel ready.

So it might be stocking your kitchen, practicing recipes, gathering support,

adding in some nutrient-dense AIP foods and experimenting before you're

actually officially committing to start, which, speaking of that, your next step

is to actually set your start date.

So you're going to choose a time when life feels pretty stable.

You're going to give yourself at least two or three weeks for preparation,

and sometimes it could even take you a couple months to prepare and start AIP.

But if that's what it you need, I would encourage you to take the time to do it.

The Transition Phase is essential to AIP as it builds

confidence and reduces overwhelm.

It's what turns the protocol from something that is an intimidating plan

into a step-by-step process that you can actually sustain and you should

expect to spend about two to four weeks, sometimes even more in this process.

So after you complete the Transition Phase, you're going to be in the

Elimination Phase, and this is the heart of The Autoimmune Protocol.

This is what most people think of when they think of AIP.

The Elimination Phase is the period when you temporarily remove foods known to

commonly cause inflammation or immune reactivity and those with autoimmune

conditions while focusing on adding in nutrient-dense, deeply healing foods.

For most people, the Elimination Phase lasts about 30 to 90 days.

This is long enough to calm the immune system and start noticing

changes in your symptoms, but short enough to be practical.

Now you're probably curious about which foods are eliminated, and there

is a lot of incorrect information and food lists floating around out there.

In 2024, The Autoimmune Protocol was revised to include two

pathways to the Elimination Phase.

Core AIP and Modified AIP.

Core AIP is the original version of the protocol.

This is the same one used in all of the published medical research.

It is ideal for those who want to follow the studied framework exactly as it's

been studied or who have the skill, the support and the resources to implement it.

Now, Modified AIP is the newer, less restrictive version created

to make AIP more accessible, affordable, and sustainable.

It reflects everything we've learned from research and years of practitioner

experience and it includes a few foods eliminated in Core AIP that

many people in the autoimmune community actually tolerate very well.

Both versions of this Elimination Phase share the same foundation and goals; to

reduce inflammation, identify triggers, and build a personalized long-term way

of eating that supports your best health.

So the choice between Core AIP or Modified AIP isn't about doing it

right or wrong, it's about choosing the version that fits your life and helps you

stay consistent enough to see results.

And we'll talk about that a little bit later in this episode.

Let's move on to the food lists.

What exactly are we eliminating during this phase?

For Modified AIP, we temporarily avoid grains with the exception of rice.

This is going to include things like wheat, rye, barley, oats, corn, and

all gluten or grain-based foods.

We avoid dairy with the exception of ghee.

So that's going to include milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, and any

foods containing milk proteins.

We avoid eggs, both yolks and whites.

We avoid peanuts and soybeans including all of the derivatives from those foods.

We avoid nuts including their oils and their flours.

We avoid night shades, which include tomatoes, peppers, eggplants,

potatoes, and spices derived from them.

We avoid refined sugars, alcohol and food additives, including artificial

colors, flavors and preservatives.

And then for Core AIP, which is the more restricted version of

the protocol, we avoid grains.

All grains, so wheat, rye, barley, oats, rice, corn, and all gluten

containing or grain-based foods.

Legumes, including beans, lentils, soy and peanuts.

Dairy, milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, and any food containing milk proteins.

Eggs, both the yolks and the whites.

Nuts and seeds, including oils and flours.

Nightshades, so again, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, potatoes,

and spices derived from them.

Processed vegetable oils like canola, soybean, corn, and sunflower.

Refined sugars, alcohol and food additives, including artificial

colors, flavors, and preservatives.

Now.

Those lists seem pretty similar, and when you compare the foods to avoid

between Core AIP and Modified AIP, you'll notice a few key differences.

The foods that remain included in Modified AIP are rice, ghee, certain

legumes and seeds, or seed based spices.

To make it simple, I've put together printable versions of both Core and

Modified AIP food lists all in one place.

You can download them now at theautoimmuneprotocol.com/foundations,

or just check the link in the show notes.

It's important to remember that the Elimination Phase isn't only about what

we're avoiding, but it is also about adding in foods that are nutrient-dense

and known to be deeply nourishing.

On both Core and Modified AIP eliminations, we include the

high quality proteins, including grass-fed meats, poultry,

wild caught fish and organ meat.

We include colorful vegetables, especially leafy greens, root

vegetables, and cruciferous plants.

We include healthy fats like olive oil, coconut oil, and avocado oil.

Colorful fruits like berries and citrus.

We include bone broth, collagen and fermented foods for gut health

support, and then seafood and sea vegetables for ample sources of minerals

like iodine, zinc, and selenium, as well as anti-inflammatory fats.

With AIP, the emphasis is always on abundance and

nourishment, not deprivation.

Our goal is to give our bodies more of what supports healing instead of

having a negative outlook on eating.

And it's worth emphasizing that for the Elimination Phase to work as

intended, it needs to be followed as fully and consistently as possible.

Even small exposures to foods that you're testing can make it harder to see

clear results or identify true triggers.

This is why taking the time to move through a careful, intentional

Transition Phase is so important.

It gives you the systems, the confidence, and the mindset you need to

be successful once elimination begins.

The goal isn't perfection, but preparation.

When you enter elimination ready and supported, you give yourself

the best chance to see meaningful improvements and clear information

about how your body responds.

Alright, next we get to move on to the final phase of The Autoimmune

Protocol, the Reintroduction Phase.

This is where the real learning happens.

After that one to three months in elimination, when your symptoms

have stabilized and you're feeling improvements, it's time to start

thinking about reintroductions.

Now reintroduction isn't about going back to normal.

It's about carefully testing foods one at a time to see what your body tolerates

and what still triggers your symptoms.

Each food is reintroduced slowly over several days while you track how you feel.

This process typically unfolds in stages depending on if you implemented

a Core AIP Elimination or a Modified AIP Elimination, starting with the

foods least likely to cause issues and then ending with the foods that

are most likely to cause issues.

Now, if you implemented a Core AIP Elimination, you're going to

reintroduce foods in four stages.

The four stages are as follows: Stage one, which are gentle nutrient-dense foods like

egg yolks, ghee and legumes, and edible pods, including green beans and peas.

Stage two are going to be nuts, seeds and whole eggs.

Stage three are going to be nightshade vegetables like tomatoes and potatoes.

Stage four are going to be grains, dairy, and more complex foods.

Now, if you implemented a Modified AIP Elimination, you're going to reintroduce

foods in two stages, and that's because there are less foods initially excluded

in the Modified AIP Elimination Phase.

For both approaches, you're going to use the same reintroduction procedure.

You'll reintroduce one food at a time in small amounts with three

to seven days between tests.

If a food causes a reaction, either physical or emotional, you're going

to set it aside and revisit it later.

If it feels fine, you're going to keep it in your diet and move

forward with the next reintroduction.

This methodical process helps you identify your own unique triggers and tolerances

and your own personalized version of AIP.

And again, if you are looking for printable lists of these stages as well

as the full reintroduction procedure, I've included them in the AIP Foundation

series, which you can download at theautoimmuneprotocol.com/foundations

or linked in the show notes.

Okay, so it is so important to remember that AIP is not a diet

that you follow indefinitely.

It's a framework designed to teach you about your body.

For most people, the full process from transition to elimination to

reintroduction takes about six months.

Now, at the end of that process, you will have a sustainable, nutrient-rich

way of eating and living that fits your life and supports your long-term health.

You won't be on AIP forever, that's not a thing.

You'll be living in alignment with what your body has taught you and hopefully

eating the most expansive diet that supports your best health going forward.

Okay.

So now that we know all about what AIP is in a nutshell, and if you're still

feeling like this isn't enough detail, I will be doing a Deep Dive episode on

each phase of The Autoimmune Protocol, including transition, elimination and

reintroduction with all of the details.

You can look forward to that.

But let's talk about how it actually works, starting with the gut.

A big part of AIP is giving your digestive system a break from foods that

commonly cause irritation or sensitivity.

So by removing these triggers and focusing on simple, nourishing meals,

you allow your gut to calm down.

This is where your immune system is, and this can help reduce things like bloating,

discomfort, and the kind of immune overactivity that happens when your body

is constantly reacting to food irritants.

Second, nutrient density.

AIP encourages you to eat the most nutrient-rich foods possible.

Again, these are things like seafood, organ meats, if you're

up to eating them, colorful fruits and vegetables, healthy fats.

Of course, these foods are not absolutely required, but those who eat

them tend to get a lot more results because of the nutrient density.

They give your body, the raw materials it needs to rebuild

tissue, support, energy, and keep your immune system working smoothly.

Third, hormone and blood sugar balance.

So stable hormones and steady blood sugar are key for reducing inflammation

and keeping the immune system calm.

Eating enough, getting good sleep, managing stress, all help regulate

hormones like cortisol and insulin, both of which have a major impact on how

your immune system behaves day to day.

And then lastly, that immune regulation piece.

When your body is well nourished and less inflamed, your immune system

naturally becomes more balanced.

And those of us with autoimmune disease have a very imbalanced immune system.

Instead of constantly being reactive, it can focus on what it's

meant to do, protect and repair.

So this is when people often start to notice that they're having fewer

flares, more energy and overall balance.

So finally we're going to talk about systemic inflammation.

All of these changes build on each other.

As your digestion improves, your nutrients are replenished, your hormones stabilize,

and inflammation begins to calm.

This is when the real shift starts to happen and your body

has the space to restore balance.

I've said it before, AIP isn't a cure for autoimmune disease, but it

definitely helps your body function from a steadier and more supported place.

A lot of us notice meaningful improvements like better energy, fewer symptoms, and a

greater sense of control over our health.

So we're going to transition to talking about if AIP actually works, how we know.

And if you spend any time in the autoimmune community, you're

going to find countless stories of people who have turned their

health around using this framework.

On my site, autoimmunewellness.com you can read more than 75 of these

recovery stories from people with Crohn's, ulcerative colitis, multiple

sclerosis, lupus, psoriasis, and many combinations of complex different health

situations and autoimmune conditions.

And now we have medical research confirming what

patients have known for years.

To date, there have been seven published studies examining The Autoimmune

Protocol, and the results have been consistently encouraging across multiple

different autoimmune conditions.

I'm going to take a quick walk through a few of them.

So the very first study was published in 2017 at Scripps San Diego, and they looked

at people with inflammatory bowel disease.

This includes both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

The researchers found that 73% of participants reached clinical remission

within six weeks and maintained that remission through the end of the

study using The Autoimmune Protocol.

Now, a follow-up paper analyzed the same data and showed significant improvements

in quality of life, confirming that the benefits to those patients

extended beyond the symptom relief.

A third companion study analyzed intestinal gene expression and

found that AIP was linked to reduced inflammatory activity and

increased tissue repair markers in the gut, which is pretty amazing.

Now in 2019, a team studied Hashimoto's thyroiditis and found that participants

experienced lower inflammation, better quality of life, and reduced symptom

burden after 10 weeks on the protocol, that same year, additional studies

explored AIP for rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis, expanding the evidence

to different autoimmune conditions.

And most recently, in 2023, researchers in Poland published a larger study

on Hashimoto's thyroiditis showing that a personalized AIP plan improved

thyroid function, nutrient intake, and reduced thyroid gland volume as

evidenced on ultrasound all while supporting healthy weight loss and

symptom improvement, which are primary concerns for patients with Hashimotos.

So taken together, these studies suggest that AIP can be a safe and

effective, complimentary approach for improving quality of life, reducing

inflammation and supporting symptom management in autoimmune disease,

especially when it's personalized and implemented with professional guidance.

That brings us to the latest updates to AIP.

In 2024, the first major update to The Autoimmune Protocol in more than

a decade was introduced, officially creating two options for the elimination

phase, Core AIP and Modified AIP.

You already know the broad differences between them, but I want you to understand

how this update came about and how to decide which version is right for you,

so that we can put this into context.

So after years of practitioner experience, data from thousands of patient outcomes

and feedback from the AIP Certified Coach community, it became clear that while the

original AIP framework worked very well, it wasn't equally accessible to everyone.

Some people thrived with it and others found it overwhelming or

difficult to sustain long term.

The AIP Certified Coach program was developed in 2017 as a

continuing education program for licensed healthcare providers.

This includes nutritionists, doctors, health coaches, therapists, and others

who wanted to integrate AIP into their clinical practice safely and effectively.

Over the years, feedback from these trained practitioners combined with

patient data and new research provided a unique window into what was working

best in real life for patients using AIP.

From there, an extensive review process began bringing together

researchers, clinicians, and community leaders to identify which foods and

practices were truly essential and which could be safely broadened based

on consistent clinical outcomes.

So the result of that process is what we now call Core AIP and Modified AIP.

So by allowing these foods, Modified AIP creates a more flexible entry point, one

that honors the science behind AIP, while making it easier for people to start, stay

consistent, and nourish themselves fully.

This evolution represents a much more mature evidence- informed and

compassionate approach to The Autoimmune Protocol and one that meets people

where they are and helps them build a foundation that can actually last.

And I hope that if you are considering AIP, that you're going

to start with the Modified protocol because I personally think that it

is the best place to start today.

Now let's talk about some of the myths and controversies that surround AIP

because, as it's grown in popularity, it's also attracted criticism and confusion.

Here are some of the most common myths that I hear and my answer.

First, "AIP is just a fad diet", and in reality, AIP is a

research-backed framework supported by peer-reviewed studies and more

than a decade of clinical use.

It's not a trend.

It is a tool that helps people understand their individual

responses to food and lifestyle.

Number two, "AIP is a restrictive lifelong diet".

Now I love dispelling this myth.

AIP was never meant to be followed forever.

The Elimination Phase is temporary, and the goal is always to

reintroduce foods and find your least restrictive, most nourishing

diet that supports your best health.

Third, "there is no science behind AIP".

Now, you already know the answer to this one.

We now have multiple published studies along with emerging mechanistic

data showing how AIP affects gut health and gene expression.

The science is real and it is continuing to grow.

Number four, "other protocols work better".

Now, every person is different and other frameworks can be helpful

if you have a specific need or are under the care of a provider.

But AIP remains the most researched, structured, and adaptable dietary and

lifestyle frameworks specifically designed for people with autoimmune disease.

Last, "AIP is a cure-all that replaces medical care".

Absolutely not.

AIP is a complimentary tool, not a replacement for

professional medical treatment.

The best outcomes using AIP happen when it is used alongside conventional

care and individual guidance.

Now when AIP is practiced as intended: temporarily, thoughtfully, and in

partnership with your healthcare providers, whether you choose to use

natural or conventional medicine, it is neither extreme or experimental.

AIP is a structured, evidence-informed approach to understanding your body

and improving your quality of life.

So how do you know if AIP is right for you?

Well, if you're living with autoimmune disease or you have chronic symptoms

that haven't improved with standard care, AIP gives you a structured way to start

learning what components of your diet and lifestyle help your body feel better.

It's a practical, evidence-based framework for uncovering patterns between what

you eat, how you live, and how you feel.

So to recap, today we covered what autoimmune disease is, why AIP

exists, where it came from, how it's evolved, the science behind how it

works, the medical research that validates it, and the updates that

make it more accessible then ever, and how to know if it's right for you.
