On this episode of Vitality Radio, we tackle one of the most overlooked and misunderstood health concerns of our time: Histamine Intolerance and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). These conditions often appear with “mystery symptoms” like skin issues, digestive discomfort, headaches, fatigue, and strange food or chemical reactions—many of which have surged in the post-COVID era. Jared explains what histamine really is, why your body sometimes produces too much of it, and how mast cells can become overactive, creating a flood of inflammation. You’ll learn about the role of DAO (Diamine Oxidase), the enzyme that helps break down food-based histamine, and why supplementing it can be a game-changer for many. You’ll also hear about supportive tools and practical strategies to lower your histamine load, calm mast cells, and rebuild gut health. If you’ve been dismissed, told it’s “just anxiety,” or left without answers, this episode offers clarity, hope, and practical steps to explore. Relief is possible—and it starts with understanding the root cause.
