EP 237: Histamine Intolerance, MCAS, Long COVID & Hormone Symptoms: What Women Are Missing
Mon Feb 02 2026
Megan Crozier is a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (FNTP) and Restorative Wellness Practitioner specializing in women's hormones, digestion, and metabolism. She helps health-conscious women who feel like they're "doing everything right" uncover the real why behind symptoms like bloating, low energy, PMS, mood issues, and stubborn weight changes—so they can stop relying on trendy diets and finally get real answers. Her work combines functional lab testing with an individualized, root-cause nutrition approach that supports the whole body and prioritizes sustainable, non-restrictive habits.
In this episode we chat about:
Long COVID symptoms in women and why histamine issues are often missed Histamine intolerance vs MCAS: how to tell which one you're dealing with Hormone fluctuations and histamine: why your menstrual cycle can worsen symptoms Why ovulation can make you feel sick, anxious, inflamed, or exhausted Why gut healing protocols and DIY gut fixes don't always work for histamine or MCAS Supplements that backfire in histamine intolerance and mast cell conditions Why "trying everything" isn't the same as addressing root causes The connection between trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and physical symptoms Why exercise isn't always a healthy coping mechanism (even if it feels productive) A real talk moment: why we treat our dogs' health better than our own and what that says about wellness culture Learn more about working with me
