But is it really inappropriate activaction IF the foods have toxins sprayed on them? I mean I have MCAS and react to so many foods, but is it really the food or the junk sprayed on it? That glysophate (spelling ? That roundup). The same goes for other things I have reacted to too. Like air freshener, ink, various cleaners, perfume, etc. I once took a photo of the ingredients on the can of air fresener that had made my face all red + swollen + throat burning for over an hour. I wasnt the one that had sprayed it, but I was the ONLY one that had reacted to it. Everyone else was just fine! But when I showed those ingredients to my allergist she only said "Thats just a bunch of toxic chemicals". But she never explained why I was the only one who had gotten sick from it! That was years before the MCAS diagnosis or the hEDS. So is it really inappropriate if the things we are reacting to with MCAS have toxins in it......??? People are exposing themselves to these toxins daily and have no idea. I mean those toxins are a danger. Its a man made danger. Its been almost a year now since I cannot go onto the branch libraries around here anymore. Due to the products these use in there. So I guess if you dont get MCAS from these hidden toxins in common products + food then years later you get cancer or parkingsons or something else? Id rather have the MCAS. Yeah its super annoying + very limiting but I guess it warns me of these hidden chemicals.
Dr Maitland was so informative!
There are tons more vids with her on other channels...like the Ehlers-Danlos Society channel.
Have you watched any other episodes?
