Addressing adverse food reactions goes way beyond simply cutting out the culprits, so I’m thrilled to have Dr. Tom Fabian join us again on New Frontiers to highlight the interventions that will move the needle for our patients. We explore the mechanisms through which specific strains can either exacerbate or alleviate both immune-mediated and non-immune-mediated food reactions, and discuss the fascinating connection between circadian rhythms of mast cells and intestinal permeability, feeding times and increased susceptibility to food reactivity. We look at why some patients may be more sensitive to symptoms and how histamine-producing microbes may lead to visceral hypersensitivity.
But we also talk strategy, with one pearl after another, such as the potential of Lactobacillus reuteri in attenuating immune-mediated food reactions, the role of butyrate and indole in stabilizing mast cells, and using specific polyphenols to calm the immune system and promote a health microbiome. For any practitioner or health-savvy individual grappling with these issues, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. ~DrKF
