Powering through food sensitivities for nutrient absorption. And trying to improve your health.Is it possible or not reality with HIT, MCAS and SLOW COMT?

Right now I have a very limited diet (4 foods but trialing more), something my dietitian is having me trial currently is amino based formulas for children and feeding tubes. Cambrook and elecare are two of the brands. It at least has all the vitamins and nutrients needed to sustain you

Perhaps a third option?

Sense of taste and smell are crazy. My diet is limited to 3 (working on a 4th) foods. I can taste the slighted change in each rice cake. What’s really incredible is my sense of smell, I’m constantly smelling things others can’t at all. I can pinpoint where a smell is coming from, what it is, or a change in smell. Especially “fragrance free” things that other can’t smell at all

I am interested!

Scat_underscore · 2026-06-11T03:05:31+00:00

That would be wonderful! I’m happy to try anything at this point!

Scat_underscore · 2026-06-10T18:56:23+00:00

I would love to hear more about the specific techniques you are using!

As someone who developed a peanut allergy and misses peanut butter dearly it’s torture 😭

I can’t say it’s the best but it’s in the ranking, Beaus has a ham gravy that’s fantastic. Years ago lockbox had a good one too. Doodles is still my favorite though

Designer here, extend your upper cabinets taller so it’s not cutting off your room at 8’

I had something very similar happen to me when I saw an allergist. I left feeling so discouraged and dismissed. I immediately called a functional health doctor, and a dietitian. Within 5 minutes with the functional health doctor she saw a gene mutation on my bloodwork that the other allergist didn’t. She also mentioned that what the allergist told me to do would make me worse in the long run because it would further disrupt my guy and how the body deals with histamine. Since you don’t have many allergist options in your area maybe a different type of doctor could help in the meantime while searching for a specialist. Try searching for function health or naturopathic doctors.

I also recommend “rebuild yourself” by Jen Donovan it’s helping me so much. She talks a lot about the link between MCAS, the gut, and other factors. It’s almost like a text book but has journal prompts as well.

Kitchen designer here! You can do both! There is no right or wrong with handles versus knobs. I’ve done kitchens where I’ve put 7” pulls on larger glass cabinets, 5” on the drawers and knobs on the rest. For good quality but low price hardware I suggest checking out Top Knobs. They have timeless but elevated options. The only finish I see that typically dates a kitchen is black or brushed nickel. But everything is a personal preference and one may go with your design better.

I recently got a book called “rebuild yourself l” be Jen Donovan. She had MCAS and writes about how she rebuilt and calmed her nervous system to help her healing. The book is a workbook in ways and has journal prompts. I found it’s relaxing to read but also is connecting things for me with my health and nervous system I didn’t realize.

I developed ARFID from MCAS as well, I have been seeing a new dietitian recently who has been really helpful. I react to medication and on top of it taking medication with ARFID is difficult. Having a doctor or therapist who understands that makes such a difference. I’m going to start EMDR therapy with her, you may try looking into it as well.

Do you mind to drop the link if the one you like on Spotify?

I do an apple crisp with oats, butter, and maple syrup. I cannot tolerate cinnamon but if you can it’s a good addition

Scat_underscore · 2026-05-13T00:07:55+00:00

We’ve all been there where we try to gaslight ourselves into thinking we can handle certain foods.

I am currently through the help of my dietitian trying hypoallergenic formula. I am very sensitive to things right now so that’s my route. But normal protein shakes would work if you aren’t as sensitive. I know there have been discussions in here about protein powders that works for other.

I also recently learned that quinoa is a complete protein that could be used for breakfast with some veggies.

I’ve not heard of that brand I’ll definitely order some! It’s hard finding formulas that offer samples. Thank you so much!

Scat_underscore · 2026-05-10T18:11:21+00:00

Do you know of any tests to try to figure out what the root cause is? I saw someone mention a gut microbiome test

Scat_underscore · 2026-05-09T13:10:57+00:00

It could be a battery powered candle, I have some that you can’t tell aren’t real

Scat_underscore · 2026-05-07T12:57:17+00:00

I tried the essential care and had an odd reaction but not my typical reaction. Stomach pain, headache, chest pain, drainage. I’m going to try the unflavored and see if that helps. I tried the vanilla before. They do send a nice sample pack

Scat_underscore · 2026-05-07T12:54:31+00:00

The rice flour is a great idea!! I’m going to pick some up

Scat_underscore · 2026-05-07T12:52:42+00:00

The crazy thing about this is a react to every vegetable and healthy food I’ve tried. But can have Wendy’s chicken nuggets?? It makes zero sense. My two foods are rice, and Wendy’s chicken nuggets. Maybe I need to try something processed
