Dr. Tania Dempsey: Mystery Diseases, Mast Cells & The Integral Role of Diet
Dr. Tania Dempsey is an expert in chronic disease, autoimmune disorders, and mast cell activation syndrome. She is sought after internationally for her knowledge of chronic immune dysregulation and uses integrative medicine to get to the patient's root causes of their illness. Her purpose is to understand why people get sick and to help patients understand their body and why it fails them when it does.
Joseph sat down with Dr. Dempsey to explore her long history working with “mystery diseases” and sheds light on the reasons they can go undiagnosed for so long.
This episode covers:
The mystery and detective work of diseases. There are various approaches that doctors can take to understand a patient’s symptoms and help them look deeper at underlying causes. Dr. Dempsey explains the complexities of Lyme disease and the importance of understanding the immune system's response to infections.
Mast cells are critical to optimal health, but often overlooked as an underlying cause of disease. Mast cells are everywhere throughout our body, and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) is a condition where mast cells release chemicals that cause inflammation in response to infections, stress, or other factors.
MCAS affects a significant portion of the population, but awareness and understanding among doctors is limited. MCAS can manifest in a wide range of symptoms affecting various body systems, making it difficult to diagnose and treat.
The marketing industry has had a significant influence on diet recommendations, often prioritizing profitability over health. In today’s dietary landscape, the most important general guidelines are prioritizing protein and reducing sugar.
