- In this episode, Dr Nirala Jacobi speaks with Heidi Turner on the topic of Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. Heidi is a medical nutrition therapist at the Seattle Arthritis Clinic at Northwest Hospital UW Medicine in Seattle, Washington. She specialises in food intolerances, SIBO, and other digestive disorders, addressing the digestion in order to balance all body systems.
In this episode topics include:
Using diet to decrease inflammation in the body and improve pain markers for autoimmune patients.
Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) and the diverse array of signs and symptoms with which it can present.
SIBO and how it relates to mast cells disorder and MCAS.
What mast cells are and what responses they create within the immune system.
Predisposing factors for MCAS
The physiological relationship of stressors, and/or emotional trauma to the development of MCAS and other conditions in the body.
Histamine Its diverse roles in the body.
Intolerance symptoms.
How intolerance can develop.
High histamine foods.
How to best assess patients for histamine intolerance.
Antihistamine supplements.
Diamine Oxidase (DAO) and SIBO related histamine dysregulation.
How to navigate probiotic treatment for highly digestively sensitive patients.
Various treatment options for stabilising mast cells, and MCAS specific support.

I have been living with this problem for nearly forty years now, it was finally diagnosed twenty five years ago as sensitivity to Salicylates Aimines and MSG, but has now deteriorated to everything I eat. It began when I developed epilepsy at the age of 29. Now I'm 66 and would like to know where I can find someone in Brisbane who knows more about this.
I've spent most of my life being looked at sideways by doctors who simply don't beleive me when I speak to them about this condition and it's really heartbreaking.
For the first thirteen years, before I found out what was wrong with me I was almost crippled with arthritis and tendonitis. Under the slightest pressure any part of my body would swell and become enflamed, the pain was almost unbearable and my local doctor and the time simply ignored me. I know he could see the problems, you wuold have to be blind not to. I had to leave town (Lowood} to find a doctor who did see the problem.
As you know there is no cure, I'm down to almost eating nothng but meat fish and eggs and still my body reacts. I can't explain it and want to meet a doctor to help me.
@Hush Money I'm fine as long as I just live a carnivore lifestyle. Occasionally I'll have a go at some greens but I don't need them to survive.
Doing everything you can to reduce inflammation in general should help significantly. I am on like six different antihistamines and several mast cell stabilizers. (Talk to your doctor before taking even an OTC antihistamine as they can cause interactions with other drugs). With dysautonomia, you can end up having an allergic reaction *to the concept of eating in general* rather than to specific foods. This happens because the body is making too exaggerated of a change whenever it has to move blood around. Blood is basically "electricity" for our body, and different systems get extra power when they are doing something important. More blood = more power. It's like in Star Trek when power is routed from a less important system to a more important system in an emergency. Trauma causes your body to make these more exaggerated changes in the distribution of blood, because it allows your organs and systems to be more powerful when they need to. But of course this has negative consequences, like having a reaction to all food. Eating smaller meals and eating meals that are room temperature or cold can help a lot. And doing any kind of psychotherapy can also help significantly. Your inflammatory response is linked to fear conditioning, so anxiety and inflammation create a never-ending vicious cycle.
@@chironOwlglass There's a bit of a difference between the thousands of different chemicals in foods and one electric assumption. While I grant you it has a similar effect as the way fat settles the brain, we still have to stop the chemicals getting in and starting the storm.
@@toni4729 look into low iodine. Back in the 70s we were very low then. Today many have thyroid prostate mand more low iodine issues. Funny how they test us and we all mostly are just fine. But if you learn about the levels you will find ok is just an tad above groidors. It's only been 11 years for me but I added sea kelp and liquid iodine 3x an day. I just found this info. But if you look at oriental people they have low breast , uterus, thyroid, prostate issues common link iodine. Today thanks to Monsanto round up our foods are minerals deficient. Minerals that's iodine , magnesium, potassium, selieum, salt, boron , ect. Also learn about your blood glucose levels. High and lows cause issues. I eat carnivore and 2 meals an day, I also started fasting with coconut cream fat to help stable my insulin during my fast. Small amounts of fat won't break an fast. Like only an tablespoon 2 x day. Stress us also huge I had to learn how to relax. I also workout half hour an day. Let me know what you think .
@@becksbitofblue I agree with everything you say but unless you have type 2 diabetes I wouldn't worry about the glucose level. If you do have it then you must keep an eye on it of course. Yes, the chemicals in the soil and the way food is grown now if definitely the cause of much of our medical problems.
I just started taking antihistamines for allergies which affected my sinuses and all my problems i related to sibo went away. Im not really sure what to do know but im glad i found this to help me. I've been trying to get rid of sibo for 10 yrs. if there is anyone that can help me please do. Thanks. Thanks for the info on your videos
The treatment for sibo triggered my mcas .
If you have severe adrenal fatigue,SIBO, and Mast Cell Activation...which all free each other...where should one start..your place..do you do phone consults..as I am sensitive to EMF...have a daughter...want to come back
Sean O'Donnell - yes we do phone/skype consults. Please see www.thebiomeclinic.com to make an appointment.
She misstated the order of intensity, when she repeated it back. Mildest is histamine intolerance, MCAS (normal number of mast cells but overactive) is in the middle, mastocytosis (too many mast cells) is the worst.
and tryptase is diagnostic for mastocytosis, not MCAS.
Not totally true. Mastocytosis involves more mast cells; MCAS involves hyperactive mast cells. Histamine intolerance is just mild MCAS, and there's no practical benefit to differentiating them. It's like differentiating hEDS and HSD; there's no point to the distinction whatsoever. The same person can have the exact same sensitivities and manifest a mild case vs a severe case at different points in their life. If you live in a building with mold, you'll be really sick. If you live somewhere without a lot of environmental toxins, you can live a more or less normal life.
@@ericab7818 Tryptase is one of the many things looked at to diagnose any mast cell disorder - and HATS.
Water was a problem at my place with a brand new refrigerator. I was drinking water from the refrigerator and had mast cell symptoms and I had every single thing tested, the air quality where I was living inside and out and tested the water and found out the water was the exact same as the water coming out of the bathtub! Gross!!
What a depressing podcast! Everything else I’ve watch was up lifting this makes me want to give up!
Don't give up!!
Probably because alot of stuff doesn't work. Truth is hard.
