If your body reacts intensely to even the smallest triggers — from healthy foods to sunlight or exercise — you might be dealing with a mast cell activation issue. These reactions often go far beyond typical histamine intolerance and can feel isolating, especially when others don’t understand what you’re going through.

In this episode, I’m joined by Michelle Shapiro, RD, an integrative dietitian who’s helped thousands navigate anxiety, gut and immune issues, and complex sensitivities. We explore what it means to have a “highly sensitive body,” how this ties into conditions like Ehlers-Danlos and hypermobility, and why getting answers can be so challenging.

If you’re tired of feeling like your symptoms are a mystery, this conversation is for you.
