Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/newAIP 

In this episode with Mickey Trescott, you'll hear how she went from bedridden at 26 with Hashimoto's and celiac to overseeing four pilot trials, helping grow a community of 1,000 trained AIP practitioners, and writing the first official update to the Autoimmune Protocol, including a new modified version for people who found the original too restrictive.

We cover what a full day of eating on AIP actually looks like, why food sensitivity panels cannot replace elimination and reintroduction, how to use WHOOP to track food reactions, the genetics of autoimmunity, the iodine problem in Hashimoto's, and why three out of four people who follow AIP properly get meaningful clinical improvement.

Mickey is a nutrition professional and one of the founding leaders of the Autoimmune Protocol movement. She wrote the original AIP cookbook, which became the definitive guide to the protocol. Her new book, The New Autoimmune Protocol, releasing May 26, 2026, includes detailed meal plans and 70+ recipes across both the core and modified protocols. Pre-order your copy here.

Gas, Bloating, Fatigue & Other Post-Meal Issues? Discover The NEW Autoimmune Protocol With Mickey Trescott

Full show notes: www.bengreenfieldlife.com/skinrepair 

In this episode with Justin Gardner, you'll explore the science behind hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a compound your white blood cells already make to kill pathogens, repair tissue, and control inflammation. You'll discover why it can be 100x more effective than bleach without driving bacterial resistance, how it outperforms hydrogen peroxide and Neosporin without stinging or damaging healthy tissue, and why formulation and pH determine whether a product actually works. From cuts and acne to post-procedure recovery and eczema, this is one of the most versatile and overlooked tools in skin health.

Justin Gardner is a medical technology entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience bringing regenerative and clinical innovations to market. He licensed and scaled hypochlorous acid-based solutions into the consumer space through Active Skin Repair, a line of medical-grade HOCl formulations cleared by the FDA for use on open skin and verified to EWG's highest standards.

Is THIS The Most Effective, Non-Toxic Biocide & Skin Repair Treatment Known To Modern Medicine? Active Skin Repair With Justin Gardner.

Full Show Notes:https://bengreenfieldlife.com/rootsofhealth 

In this special "Best Of" episode, you'll explore some of my most impactful conversations on what actually builds long-term roots of health. If you're dealing with low energy, hormonal issues, chronic inflammation, or just a nagging sense that something's off despite doing all the right things, this episode gives you a clear roadmap.

You'll hear from Daniel Baird on why the synthetic fabric in your underwear may be quietly disrupting your hormones and why microplastics are becoming one of the biggest threats to male reproductive health, while Katy Bowman makes the case that your chair and mattress are doing more damage than you think. Justin Roethlingshoefer shares how a near-death diagnosis at 32 completely rewired his approach to health data and recovery. Dr. Cate Shanahan breaks down how the oils in your kitchen are being incorporated into your cell membranes. Julie Gibson Clark shows how she rebuilt her health from scratch in her 40s. And James Pieratt closes with a deep dive into what Spartan warriors actually trained like, and why it still holds up as one of the most complete blueprints for human performance ever devised.

Whether you listen start to finish or jump to the section that speaks to you most, you'll find something in here that changes the way you think about your health.
