The Complete Nutrition and Diet Guide for POTS, EDS and MCAS: Evidence-Based Meal Plans, Recipes & Dietary Strategies for Dysautonomia, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome & Mast Cell Activation Syndrome

Three diet sheets from three different specialists. Two of them contradict each other. None of them reference each other. And you are standing in your kitchen trying to figure out what you are actually supposed to eat for dinner tonight.

Managing POTS, EDS, and MCAS through food means juggling dietary demands that overlap, compete, and sometimes directly conflict. Your cardiologist wants more sodium. Your allergist wants less histamine. Your geneticist mentioned collagen-supporting nutrients. No single handout accounts for all three conditions at once, and taping three separate sheets to the refrigerator is not a dietary strategy.

A Unified Dietary Framework for All Three Conditions

This evidence-based nutrition guide translates the clinical research on diet for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and mast cell activation syndrome into one integrated dietary approach. Every recommendation addresses all three conditions simultaneously so that increasing sodium for POTS does not trigger a histamine reaction from MCAS, and supporting connective tissue for EDS does not compromise the elimination protocol.

Low-Histamine Recipes Built for the Trifecta

More than 75 recipes designed from the ground up to be low-histamine, high-sodium, anti-inflammatory, collagen-supportive, and gastroparesis-accommodating. Each recipe includes sodium content per serving, histamine risk classification, prep time, FODMAP notes, and modification options. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, desserts, broths, sauces, and electrolyte beverages are all covered.

Practical Tools That Go Beyond the Kitchen

A structured elimination and reintroduction protocol walks through each phase with specific timelines, food lists, and tracking templates. Meal planning frameworks adapt to flare days, stable days, and high-activity days. Appendices include printable food lists organized by histamine level, sodium content charts, a symptom and food journal template, and a supplement evidence summary.

Clinical Depth Without Medical Jargon

Each chapter explains the physiological reasoning behind every dietary recommendation. Understand how histamine accumulates in food, why sodium affects blood volume in POTS, how specific micronutrients support the collagen synthesis pathway, and which medications interact with common foods and supplements. Diet-medication interaction tables and condition-specific icons throughout the text help you and your healthcare team make informed decisions together.

This book was written to be used. The pages should get stained. The appendices should get photocopied. The recipes should be tried, modified, and shared with the people who cook for you.
