Dr. Theoharides explains how mast cells are involved in the body’s stress response, the symptoms of mast cell activation, and how to recognize if someone may be experiencing chronic issues.
He also shares practical steps to identify when stress is not being managed well and highlights the importance of nutrition and lifestyle in recovery.
