I really appreciated this, “Diet will cure mast cell disease. Many people want diet to be the cure because it is the only variable they can control. However, diet is not the cause, so it can’t be the cure. Dietary changes can reduce symptoms, but many other variables are involved.” I don’t have this particular condition but it really took the responsibility for my condition off of my fork. So often the act of eating is fraught with distress – “How will this make me worse and I don’t know it yet?” And, “Will this heal me?” Instead of just focusing on nutrition, following my own gut’s guidance, and the pleasure of eating. My job is to live as best I can in harmony with the body that I’ve got, not to put the burden of curing or healing on whatever I put in my mouth. Thanks for the reminder!
