Dr. Zac Spiritos shares key insights about gastroenterology red flags and specialized dietary approaches for digestive disorders. We explore the concerning situation when doctors label symptoms as "just IBS" without proper explanation and the important distinctions between histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome.
• Watch for doctors who label everything as IBS without explaining what it means or why their treatments would work for your specific case
• Histamine intolerance (lacking an enzyme that breaks down histamine) is different from mast cell activation syndrome
• Low histamine diets work well for histamine intolerance but need professional guidance to avoid becoming too restrictive.
