490: When Your Body Won't Calm Down: What I Learned About Histamine, Mast Cells, and the Hidden Cause Behind My Mysterious Reactions

You know how they say "what happens in Bali stays in Bali"? Yeah… not so much. Mine came home with me in the form of hives, food reactions, and what I now call my PhD in histamine. In this episode, I'm sharing the wild story of how a little post-Bali "food poisoning" turned into a full-blown case of histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome. Think: red blotches, racing heart, and me Googling every bite before eating it. I'll walk you through the chaos of misdiagnosis, the "aha!" moment when we figured out it was actually Scombroid poisoning (yes, that's a real thing from bad fish), and how that set off my body's over-zealous histamine fireworks show. But this isn't a doom-and-gloom story. I'll share how I calmed the storm, what I learned about histamine-rich foods (spoiler: your healthy leftovers might be the problem), and the surprising tools that helped me reset my system. Plus, I'm breaking down why this matters for midlife women right now—because those symptoms you're blaming on menopause? The flushing, anxiety after eating, sudden food sensitivities? They might actually be your mast cells stuck in overdrive. And no, you're not crazy for thinking your body suddenly hates everything you eat. If you've ever had mysterious rashes, heart palpitations after chicken (yes, chicken!), or just want to understand what the heck histamine and mast cells actually do, you're going to love this one. It's part detective story, part midlife meltdown, and a whole lot of "what just happened to my body?!" I'm also sharing the exact protocol that finally worked (including why I ended up saying yes to a steroid after swearing I'd go all-natural), which foods to avoid when your histamine bucket is overflowing, and why becoming your own health detective might be the most important skill you develop in midlife.   Thank you to our show sponsors!

Could your racing thoughts and underlying anxiety be causing your mysterious hives, heart palpitations, and unexplained allergic reactions? After my own shocking hive outbreak following surgery and Bali belly, I dove deep into the world of histamine and mast cells. Dr. Jessica Peatross, the MD who's become known as the "surgeon of figuring out what's really going on," reveals why your nervous system might be the hidden trigger behind your mystery symptoms. She explains why midlife women suddenly develop histamine issues out of nowhere, the shocking connection between anxiety and mast cell activation, and why your body might be pushing toxins out through your skin when it can't eliminate them normally. We dive into game-changing protocols including specific binders that act like sponges for excess histamine, why addressing your gut is non-negotiable, and how a simple dissolving strip might calm your overactive mast cells. Dr. Jess shares her "magic trick" binder protocol, explains which supplements actually work for mast cell stabilization, and reveals why treating the nervous system FIRST is crucial for any healing protocol to work. Whether you're dealing with unexplained hives, chronic inflammation, or mystery symptoms that appeared out of nowhere, this conversation will change everything you thought you knew about histamine and healing.

If you're lying awake at night worried about finances, feeling like you're the only one who didn't figure out this money thing, you're not alone, and this episode is your wake-up call + your action plan rolled into one. I invited my friend, an accomplished investor and financial savvy expert, Bret Johnson to share the exact strategies he used to transform his financial future later in life. From being behind the eight-ball to traveling abundantly and living without money stress, Bret breaks down the no-BS approach to building wealth when you think it's too late. We dive into the uncomfortable truths about why you're behind (spoiler: you were living life while others were investing), the simple 5-15% rule that changes everything, and why index funds might be your secret weapon for catching up fast. He discusses practical strategies for paying off debt, investing wisely, and building wealth, even if you feel you've started late. From addressing common concerns about feeling financially stuck to providing actionable steps you can take today, Bret's advice is invaluable. Plus, he shares his "stocks are on sale" mindset that transformed market crashes from disasters into opportunities.

What if the reason you can't lose weight, feel exhausted, and struggle with inflammation has nothing to do with your diet or exercise routine – but with zombie cells lurking in your body? In this game-changing episode, I sit down with Dan Pardi, Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life, to uncover the hidden world of cellular senescence and why these "zombie cells" might be sabotaging your health without you even knowing it. We dive deep into how damaged cells that refuse to die are creating chronic inflammation, accelerating aging, and potentially blocking your body's ability to heal itself. Dan reveals the shocking connection between your circadian rhythm and cellular aging, why your immune system stops clearing these problematic cells as you age, and the breakthrough science of senolytics that's revolutionizing how we approach healthy aging. Plus, I share the incredible story of how addressing zombie cells transformed my friend's decades-long battle with endometriosis – and why this might be the missing piece in your own health puzzle.   Episode Link: Experience the science of feeling younger—go to http://qualialife.com/nataliejill for up to 50% off your purchase of Qualia Senolytic and use code NATALIEJILL for an additional 15%.    Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Dan Pardi & Qualia:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/qualiallife  Website ➜ https://www.qualialife.com/natjill    Free Gifts for being a listener of Midlife Conversations!

You're exhausted, can't sleep, gaining weight despite doing "all the right things," and your doctor hands you an antidepressant or birth control pills. Sound familiar? In this raw and revealing conversation, integrative doctor and perimenopause expert Dr. Mariza Snyder pulls back the curtain on what's really happening to your hormones during this massive transition—and why the standard medical approach is leaving millions of women struggling unnecessarily. We're breaking down the confusion between perimenopause and menopause, revealing why your progesterone tanks first (and what that means for your sleep and mood), and exploring real solutions beyond the lazy medicine of symptom management. From the power of circadian rhythm optimization to understanding when hormone replacement makes sense (and when it doesn't), this episode gives you the knowledge to advocate for yourself and thrive. Whether you're in the trenches of perimenopause or sitting in that confusing "waiting room" before menopause, this conversation will change how you think about your body, your symptoms, and your options. It's time to stop accepting that suffering is just part of being a woman—you deserve better.   Get Dr. Mariza's book "The Perimenopause Revolution" at https://drmariza.com/book for exclusive bonuses including symptom trackers, lab ranges, and more.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Dr. Mariza Snyder:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/drmariza  Website ➜ https://drmariza.com/book    Thank you to our show sponsors!

I found out the hard way that Bali Belly is no joke. What started as a bucket-list dream vacation turned into a battle with my gut health that I'm still fighting as we record this. And the kicker - I thought I was prepared to dodge it: I had my enzymes, my probiotics, I was careful with food and water. But what I didn't know about environmental exposure through skin contact, contaminated water sources, and the reality of underdeveloped infrastructure cost me my normally great health. In this conversation, I'm joined by functional nurse practitioner Laura Frontiero (aka "The Gut Genie") to break down exactly what happened to my body in Bali, why some people get sick while others don't, and the critical travel supplements I wish I'd packed. We're talking about the antibiotics versus antimicrobials debate, what to do when you have an allergic reaction mid-treatment, why Western medicine dismisses parasites that are epidemic in other countries, and the comprehensive protocol I'm using right now to recover. If you've ever traveled internationally, plan to, or have mysterious symptoms after a trip abroad, this episode could literally save you years of suffering. Laura shares her essential travel toolkit, explains when it's actually okay to stop an antibiotic, reveals why parasites are more common than anyone admits, and gives you the exact steps to protect your gut health when exploring the world. Tune in for a comprehensive guide to safeguarding your gut health while exploring new destinations.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Episode Links:    Ozone Air Purifier: Choose the black Triad Air Go https://mytriadaer.funnelpages.com/CA-LAU71172-Laura-Frontiero  Shop CellCore: https://shop.laurafrontiero.com/collections/all  Saccharomyces Boulardii: https://www.designsforhealth.com/u/laura/products/floramyces#FLM060   Learn More About Laura Frontiero:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/laura.frontiero  Website ➜ https://gutchecktest.com/    Free Gifts for being a listener of Midlife Conversations!

Join Kash and I live to go deeper on this conversation http://midlifeconversations.com/breathe  Could your "bad genetics" for cholesterol actually be a survival advantage you're just using wrong (and actually making everything worse)?  In this conversation we're diving deep into the connections between hormone detoxification, cholesterol, anxiety, and why your body might feel like it's working against you - plus the surprising solution that's helping women address all of it simultaneously. Health detective guru Kashif Khan returns to help unravel the mysteries behind stubborn weight, high cholesterol despite clean eating, chronic inflammation, and that constant fight-or-flight feeling that won't turn off no matter what you try. If you've been told you have poor detox pathways and it's made hormone replacement therapy feel scary, this episode provides clarity you won't find anywhere else. We explore why your body produces hormones based on what your ancestors did (not what you actually do), how modern toxins create a perfect storm of hormone disruption, and why the conventional approach to cholesterol might be missing the entire point. You'll discover why nervous system regulation must come first before any other intervention can truly work, and learn about molecular hydrogen therapy - a breakthrough approach that addresses toxic burden, cellular energy, and inflammation all at once. Tune in to learn about the profound impacts of hydrogen on detoxification, cellular energy, and overall wellness, and get answers to pressing health questions you've been asking.

Get 50% off comprehensive labs + clinician consults https://joiandblokes.com/NATALIEJILL   Are you being medically gaslighted while your insurance company profits from your pain? This conversation with Katy Whalen, founder of Joi + Blokes telemedicine, pulls back the curtain on why midlife women are systematically failed by traditional healthcare. Katy shares her raw journey from comprehensive fertility support to complete menopause abandonment, sparking her mission to revolutionize women's healthcare through telehealth.  In this episode, we discuss the complexities of navigating life during perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. We get brutally honest about medical gaslighting, why your doctor dismisses your symptoms as "normal," and how insurance companies actively prevent you from getting optimal care. Katy breaks down the truth about HRT that most doctors won't tell you, exposes the dangerous research peptide market flooding social media, and reveals why telehealth is the future of personalized hormone care. We tackle the uncomfortable truths about why only 1 in 5 doctors are trained in menopause, what comprehensive testing actually reveals about your health, and why paying out of pocket might cost less than fighting your insurance company for substandard care. If you've ever been told you're "fine" while feeling absolutely terrible, been denied testing because insurance won't cover it, or wondered why your body stopped responding to everything that used to work, this episode will validate your frustration and give you a clear action plan. She shares exactly what to look for in HRT treatment, how to spot legitimate peptide therapy versus dangerous research compounds, and why telehealth partnerships are changing the game for women who refuse to settle for "normal." Get ready to stop being gaslighted and start demanding the optimal health you deserve.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Katy Whalen and Joi + Blokes:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/joiwomenswellness  Website ➜ https://joiandblokes.com/NATALIEJILL  Thank you to our show sponsors!
