A lot of people dismiss AIP before they ever fully understand what it actually is.

Too restrictive.
Too overwhelming.
Impossible to sustain long term.

The New Autoimmune Protocol by Mickey Trescott officially releases today, and it reflects how much the approach to AIP has evolved over the years.

More flexibility. More practicality. More real-world application.

If AIP has ever felt intimidating or incompatible with your lifestyle, culture, or budget, I’d encourage you to take a closer look at this updated approach.

Osteoarthritis is often dismissed as just “getting older,” but for many people, it impacts mobility, pain levels, daily activities, and overall quality of life.

As someone living with both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, I know firsthand how complex and frustrating arthritis pain can be, especially when it affects multiple joints and different parts of daily life.

On Episode 153 of the Live Yes! With Arthritis podcast, I’m joined by orthopedic surgeon Dr. C. Benjamin Ma and physical therapist and researcher Dr. Elizabeth Wellsandt for a conversation about osteoarthritis, what’s happening in the joints, treatment options, movement, pain management, and the role physical activity can play in long-term joint health.

Dr. Ma brings both the surgical and sports medicine perspective, helping break down how osteoarthritis develops, when surgery may or may not be appropriate, and why staying active matters. Dr. Wellsandt shares insight on physical therapy, strength, mobility, and ways people can support joint function at different stages of OA.

Honored to be speaking during the American Academy of Sleep Medicine’s Women’s Sleep Health Webinar Series for “Central Disorders of Hypersomnolence in Women: What Clinicians Need to Know” on May 13 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM CST.

Central disorders of hypersomnolence, including narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia, are common, underrecognized, and frequently overlooked in women, often leading to delayed diagnosis and gaps in care.

This webinar will explore sex-based differences in diagnosis and management, including the impact of pregnancy, menopause, diagnostic blind spots, and evolving research surrounding these conditions.

I’ll be sharing my personal narcolepsy journey and lived experience alongside clinicians and experts bringing medical, research, and patient perspectives to the conversation.

Our work at the AIP BIPOC Network started in 2022, when conversations at the AIP Summit continued beyond the event and turned into ongoing roundtables centered on what BIPOC patients were experiencing. Those conversations grew into formal programming, and we became a nonprofit in 2023. We began with AIP (Autoimmune Protocol) as the core, and over time it became clear that food protocols alone could not solve what Access, Inclusion, and Prevention were failing to support. That is how our current dual framework developed.
