   When Your Body Reacts to Everything: MCAS, Histamine & the Path to Healing

   🎙️Episode Summary Erin Myers sits down with integrative registered dietitian nutritionist and holistic health coach Heidi Turner of Food Logic to explore mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) and what can contribute to a highly reactive body. Heidi breaks down the role of mast cells and histamine and discusses how food, gut health, genetics, environmental exposures, stress, and trauma can all play a role. Together, they explore stabilization, low-histamine diets, medications and supplements, nervous system regulation, and learning to listen to what your body needs. 💡Key Takeaways MCAS looks different for everyone.
