Mast Cell Activation Syndrome Diet Larry Jamesonn

Our body has cells that serve as front-liners of the immune response of our body. These cells are called "mast cells." They make and store natural chemicals called mediators that are important in the body's normal immune response.




However, mast cells are also responsible for sudden allergic reactions. The release of mediators happens when lgE-the allergy antibody, which is found in the surfaces of mast cells-binds with proteins, causing allergies.




This process of triggering called activation and the releasing of mediators is known as degranulation. When this triggering is over-activated, it causes a disorder called mast cell activation syndrome or MCAS.




MCAS is perceived to be a relatively unknown disorder. It has only recently gained footing in conventional health conversation. However, MCAS is believed to be fairly common. According to one study conducted in Germany, 17% of the population is diagnosed with MCAS. This disorder is responsible for many mild to severe symptoms like constipation, diarrhea, bloating, pain, palpitations, rashes, headaches, fatigue, and many more. It is the result of the release of natural chemicals from mast cells. These symptoms may seem mild but without immediate treatment, the disorder may worsen. Hence, it is important to be knowledgeable on how to treat MCAS.




Fortunately, there are several treatments for MCAS. Aside from prescribed medications, another dramatically helpful way to treat MCAS is through dietary changes.
