The 21-year-old Los Angeles, California resident Jenna Gestetner was identified as having Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) at an early age.
“Condition in which the patient experiences repeated episodes of the symptoms of anaphylaxis — allergic symptoms such as hives, swelling, low blood pressure, difficulty breathing, and severe diarrhea,” is how the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology describes MCAS.
A STUDY SUGGESTS THAT “SUBSTANTIAL SAVINGS” IN HEALTH CARE COSTS MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO PERSONALIZED MEAL DELIVERY.
Gestetner said to Fox News Digital that she has always experienced seemingly sporadic health problems.
When I was about twelve, things started to get worse, She continued, “I was down to eating less than fifteen foods, and I knew I needed answers for not only my physical health but also my mental health. After years of confusion, Gestetner was finally diagnosed with MCAS and is now restricted to thirteen foods that she can eat without any issues.” “I was always just labeled as’sensitive.'” She added.
