Today, Michelle Shapiro joins me again for another episode! Michelle is an integrative and functional registered dietitian who has helped over 1,000 clients reverse their anxiety, heal longstanding gut issues and immune issues, and approach their weight in a loving way. Together, we discuss the complex world of long Covid, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), and histamine issues and Michelle shares her personal journey and insights on how chronic stress, gut health, and hypermobility intersect with these conditions. This episode not only provides practical strategies for managing these conditions but also emphasizes the importance of understanding your body's unique needs. Michelle and I address how excessive mast cell activation can affect day-to-day life and pregnancy, offering a hopeful perspective on achieving full recovery through both conventional and non-conventional treatments.

Complexities of treating conditions like MCAS and POTS
Relation of hypermobility, nervous system, and connective tissue issues with MCAS and POTS
