In this episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein chats with functional medicine expert Dr. Jill Carnahan about tackling complex conditions like Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), and POTS. A Breast Cancer and Crohn's disease survivor, Dr. Carnahan shares her unique approach to identifying root causes of chronic illness using functional medicine principles. They explore the triad of MCAS, EDS, and dysautonomia, and discuss tools like the limbic system, toxin reduction, and gut healing to improve patient outcomes. This episode is packed with practical insights for navigating chronic illness and optimizing your health.

Takeaways:

Mast Cells as the Root Driver: Dr. Carnahan explains how mast cells play a central role in triggering symptoms in EDS, POTS, and MCAS, often driven by infections, toxins, or trauma.

Functional Medicine Seeks the Root Cause: A functional medicine approach looks beyond symptoms to uncover underlying triggers like mold, Lyme disease, or environmental toxins.

Limbic System Reset is Critical: Addressing the limbic system through the DNRS or The Gupta Program can calm overactive mast cells and reduce overall symptom severity.

Diet Plays a Vital Role: A low-histamine diet can be transformative for people with MCAS, reducing inflammation and improving gut health.

Small Steps Lead to Big Changes: Healing requires incremental improvements, like reducing toxic exposure, supporting adrenal function, and improving sleep and nutrition.
