Savita is an accredited dietitian based in Australia. She shares her own experience with hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome and emphasizes the importance of focusing on the basics: regular balanced meals, hydration, controlling blood sugar, and nervous system regulation in improving quality of life for those with hypermobility syndromes. She also sheds light on considerations such as the role specific nutritional deficiencies can play, and how gut health interacts with MCAS and POTS in hypermobility syndromes.
