Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) is a confusing and often misunderstood condition. If you've ever wondered about MCAS symptoms, serum tryptase testing, or how treatments like antihistamines, sodium cromolyn, and even omalizumab fit in, this episode is here to help. We review the findings from “Management of indolent mastocytosis and mast cell activation syndrome - A clinical yardstick,” published in June 2025 in The Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. Because the paper covers both diseases, we've split it into two parts. This episode focuses on mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). GET THE INFOGRAPHIC - summary of this episode What we cover in our episode about mast cell activation syndrome: Yardsticks explained: Why the ACAAI uses yardsticks as practical, interim guidelines before full consensus statements are available. Classifying mast cell disorders: Primary (clonal), secondary (allergy/autoimmune), and idiopathic (MCAS). MCAS diagnosis criteria: Symptoms in 2 or more organ systems, objective evidence (serum tryptase or urinary metabolites tests), and positive response to therapy. Treatment strategies: Include trigger avoidance, H1/H2 antihistamines, leukotriene blockers, mast cell stabilizers (such as cromolyn and aspirin), off-label biologics like omalizumab, and epinephrine. Neuropsychiatric symptoms: Brain fog, anxiety, and depression are common and require multidisciplinary management. The Itch Review, hosted by Dr. Gupta, Kortney, and Dr. Blaiss, explores allergy and immunology studies, breaking down complex research in conversations accessible to clinicians, patients, and caregivers. Each episode provides key insights from journal articles and includes a one-page infographic in the show notes for easy reference. Made in partnership with The Allergy & Asthma Network.

Words can carry more baggage than we realise. In this lively conversation, Suzanne is joined once again by Lynn Quinn to unpack the idea of “word allergies” those overused, loaded, or ambiguous words that make you cringe the second you hear them. They explore: What a word allergy actually is (and why it's deeply personal). Why some words (like “gratitude,” “budget,” “expert,” or “trigger”) hit us like nails on a chalkboard. How cultural differences and context can turn an innocent word into a communication disaster. The subtle ways we say one thing but mean another — apples, oranges, and bananas included. How to swap out allergic words for ones that feel clearer, kinder, or more resonant. From “busy mums” to “funnels,” “detox” to “woo-woo,” Suzanne and Lynn share their own allergy lists, hilarious miscommunications, and practical tips for finding words that actually land. If you've ever shuddered at corporate jargon, spiritual fluff, or marketing clichés, this episode will make you feel seen (and probably make you laugh out loud).

Over 50 million Americans suffer from a range of frustrating allergy symptoms from hay fever to asthma, hives to sinusitis. Many have tried medications, visited allergists, and used various treatments, desperate to find a reliable way to alleviate their pain, but just can't seem to get the dependable relief they need. Now, one of New York's top allergists, Dr. Dean Mitchell, lifts the cloud of mystery surrounding allergies and offers a breakthrough new treatment program that will dramatically lessen their severity, if not cure them for good. In Dr. Dean Mitchell's Allergy and Asthma Solution, Mitchell clearly and comprehensively explains what allergies are, why they are so prevalent, and all of the standard treatments. He then presents a cutting edge 5-step program for reversing allergies called sublingual immunotherapy, or "allergy drops." This new treatment, widely accepted in Europe but still relatively unknown in the United States, is painless, convenient, incredibly effective, and completely safe since it works naturally through the body's immune system. Even better, it can be customized to meet specific needs, is shot-free, and can be self-administered. Dr. Dean Mitchell's Allergy and Asthma Solution is the best guide to understanding allergies and overcoming their symptoms.Dean Mitchell, MD, is the leading expert in sublingual allergy immunotherapy in the United States. He had been in practice for seven years following the conventional methods of allergy cures when he first learned of sublingual allergy immunotherapy (allergy drops) and has been one of its strongest proponents. He now runs a private practice, Ocean Allergy & Nutrition, in Manhattan. Dr. Mitchell's patients come from all over the US to receive his treatments. He is a fellow of the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology and is a member of the Joint Council of Allergy and Immunology.For ten years he was a clinical instructor of medicine at Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons. He graduated from Brown University in 1982 and received his MD from the Sackler School of Medicine at Tel Aviv University in 1986. He lives in Long Island with his wife and two sons. When he's not busy with his patients, he enjoys playing baseball with his kids.https://www.mitchellmedicalgroup.com/about/dr-dean-mitchell/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=gmb_dean?utm_source=GMB&utm_medium=DeanBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Hey Food Allergy Mom, One question I hear from food allergy parents is: “Is my child ready to self-carry epinephrine at school?” Sometimes we think they're ready, but the school or maybe their doctor isn't convinced. We all know that having that epinephrine available right away is important, which makes self-carrying an important option. So, how do you know they're ready, and what can you do to show the school they are? In today's episode, we're walking through what self-carry means, and I'll share some real-life tests you can do to help everyone feel confident that you're child is ready. By the end of this episode, you'll have a solid plan for figuring out if your child is ready to self-carry this school year—whether it's your child's first time or just a new grade with new expectations.  I'm cheering for you!

Leading food allergy advocate Lianne Mandelbaum discusses her article, "What one diagnosis can change: the movement to make dining safer." She explains how for millions of people living with food allergies, dining out is often an exercise in survival rather than a joy, filled with anxiety about cross-contact and lack of ingredient transparency. Lianne highlights a powerful advocacy movement, driven by the personal stories of those with lived experience, that is creating systemic change. She focuses on California's ADDE Act (SB 68), a bill that would require restaurants to list the top nine allergens on their menus, framing it not as a burden but as a significant business opportunity. By increasing transparency, restaurants can win the trust and business of the food-allergic community and the large groups of friends and family who dine with them. Drawing parallels between her own advocacy for airline safety and this new legislative effort, she illustrates how parent-driven passion is reshaping public policy to make the world safer and more inclusive for everyone.

As summer winds down and September approaches, many people with asthma notice their symptoms getting worse. This is no coincidence as more asthma triggers appear during this time of year, from pollen and viruses to stress and weather changes. This combination peaks during Asthma Peak Week, a time when asthma attacks and ER visits spike across the country. Allergist Dr. Kristin Sokol joins us to discuss seasonal asthma triggers, why fall can be especially risky, and how you can prepare to keep your asthma under control. You'll learn how to identify your personal triggers, steps to reduce your exposure, and why staying consistent with your medication routine is critical. We also cover tools like an asthma action plan, preparing for school, and making sure caregivers and teachers know how to respond to an asthma flare. What we cover in our episode about managing asthma triggers during the fall: Understanding asthma: learn why even mild asthma should be reviewed before the fall. Identifying triggers: from indoor allergens to seasonal pollen and surprising emotional triggers, know what can set off your asthma. Preparing for Asthma Peak Week: discover how viruses, ragweed pollen, and stress combine into a dangerous flare period and how to get ahead of it. Staying in control: strategies to avoid or reduce asthma trigger exposure, prepare for school, and keep your asthma action plan up to date. Supporting everyone with asthma: special considerations for adults, caregivers, and teachers to stay healthy and ready year-round.

For most people, asthma is a disease you manage with inhalers, pills, and a prayer that the ER isn't your next stop. But new research is upending that view and changing everything we know about managing the condition.  The big shift? Medication alone might be the least effective way to manage this chronic condition.  Asthma is, after all, inflammatory by nature, but the lifestyle choices that fuel or fight inflammation are often ignored in traditional care plans.  What if the real triggers aren't just pollen or pets, but processed food, poor sleep, and unchecked anxiety? And what if healing asthma requires more than bronchodilators, like learning how to breathe all over again?  So what does a truly modern, whole-person approach to asthma look like?  In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Atoosa Kourosh, an Asthma, Allergy & Immunology consultant physician and integrative medicine leader who's spent two decades treating asthma from every angle, not just the pharmaceutical one.  We dive into what the latest science says about lifestyle as medicine, and how breathwork, nutrition, exercise, and gut health are changing the game for asthma patients everywhere. Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Why your exhale matters more than your inhale Most asthma patients struggle more with getting air out than in. What do breathing techniques like Buteyko and Papworth do that traditional deep breathing doesn't, and how can they rewire the lungs for better control? Can a Mediterranean diet reduce airway inflammation? Forget calorie counting. How do whole foods, fiber, and fermented veggies change your lung health through your gut? How obesity triggers two kinds of asthma dysfunction What's the double whammy effect of body fat on asthmatic lungs? The cortisol-microbiome-asthma triangle What happens to your microbiome when you miss a night of sleep?   Guest Bio Dr. Atoosa Kourosh, MD, MPH, RYT, is a physician, board-certified in Pediatrics, Asthma, Allergy & Immunology, and Public Health. She's also a patient health advocate. Dr. Kourosh combines treatment modalities from cutting-edge and mainstream medicine with the best of functional and integrative medicine therapies and traditional philosophies to treat the whole person in their environment.

In honor of both Food Allergy Awareness Month and Mental Health Awareness Month, I was thrilled to welcome Amanda Whitehouse, licensed psychologist, food allergy anxiety and trauma expert, host of the Don't Feed the Fear podcast, and a devoted food allergy mom, to Eating at a Meeting. Amanda and I dove into the rarely-discussed intersection of food allergy safety and mental health. Too often, we focus on labeling foods and avoiding allergens at events, but what about managing the underlying fear, trauma, and anxiety that come with living (or parenting) with food allergies? Amanda opened up about the deep-seated worries food-allergic individuals carry to every buffet, the impact of recurrent trauma from allergic reactions, and the often overlooked mental toll of social and professional situations involving food. We unpacked the crucial need for “emotional safety” alongside physical safety, practical ways planners and foodservice professionals can alleviate anxiety, and why inclusive, empathetic communication truly matters. Amanda also shared grounding techniques, misconceptions about allergy anxiety, and how to build confidence navigating a sometimes isolating world.

The Peanut Podcast's latest episode, “10 Years of LEAP: Bold Progress in Peanut Allergy Prevention,” hosted by Ashton Pellom and Lauren Highfill Williams, marks a milestone in food allergy history. Listeners are taken back to the origins of the groundbreaking LEAP study with lead researcher Dr. Gideon Lack, whose work proved that introducing peanut foods early and often in infancy could reduce the risk of developing peanut allergy by up to 80%. “The cause of the disease and the trigger of symptoms aren't the same,” Dr. Lack explains, underscoring the shift from avoidance to proactive prevention. His insights remind us that science—and the courage to challenge old norms—can change lives. Pediatric allergist Dr. Michael Pistiner brings both professional expertise and personal experience as a dad to a child with food allergies. His work on the FAMP-IT toolkit ensures parents and primary care providers have the resources to introduce peanut foods confidently. “Early introduction is no longer new or rogue. It's the standard,” Dr. Pistiner says, emphasizing that every month counts in allergy prevention. Through partnerships with WIC and frontline clinicians, he champions consistent, accessible messaging for all families, regardless of resources. Registered dietitian and maternal health advocate ChaCha Miller shares what it takes to make prevention advice practical and culturally relevant for families. Working through WIC and her online platform, she focuses on building trust and offering realistic solutions: “If it's not easy, they won't do it. It has to be simple and sustainable.” Her approach breaks down fear, combats misinformation and ensures that the life-changing benefits of early introduction reach all communities in ways that resonate. Former National Peanut Board chair Dee Dee Darden blazed the trail for NPB's commitment to the allergy issue and reflects on the Board's decision to face peanut allergies head-on, even when the topic was uncomfortable. “If we're going to be part of the problem, we need to be part of the solution,” she says.  NPB dietitian Markita Lewis shares why reaching WIC families is essential: “If we don't reach them with early introduction info, we miss a chance to help prevent a lifelong health and financial burden.”  From farmers to clinicians to public health leaders, this episode celebrates a decade of progress—and calls on all of us to keep the momentum going.

We explore the intriguing hygiene hypothesis, comparing asthma rates in Amish and Hutterite communities, and uncover the unexpected prevalence of horse allergies in urban settings. From barn dust to cross-reactive allergens, we dissect the complex interplay of rural allergens, their far-reaching effects, and the critical role of specific IgE testing in identifying these often-overlooked triggers. Gain insights into the unique challenges of diagnosing allergies in rural patients, the importance of thorough clinical histories, and strategies for distinguishing between allergic and non-allergic respiratory symptoms in agricultural settings.

But he's also made great strides in medical research and policy, from working with activists who initially challenged him on the government response to HIV/AIDS - to spearheading the USA's PEPFAR project to share vital medication with developing nations.In a candid conversation with Professor Jim Al-Khalili, Tony discusses his childhood in Brooklyn, the dark early days of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and lessons from the Covid-19.Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced for BBC Studios by Lucy Taylor Reversion for World Service by Minnie Harrop

Do adults with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) have a higher risk of death over time compared to people without hives? We review the findings from “Mortality in adult patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria: A real-world cohort study,” published in April 2025, in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. While CSU is often considered a non-life-threatening condition, this large study found something surprising: people with CSU had a significantly higher risk of death, especially from suicide. Dr. G and Dr. Blaiss walk through key takeaways from a dataset of over 272,000 CSU patients and nearly 13 million matched controls. They explore what the results mean for mortality risk, clinical care, mental health screening, and the importance of proper, guideline-based treatment. What we cover in our episode about CSU and mortality risk: What is CSU? Chronic hives are an unpredictable, itchy, and sometimes painful condition. It lasts for 6 weeks or longer and can continue for years. Mental health connection: CSU affects more than skin. Anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts are common and serious concerns. Study findings: CSU was associated with higher mortality at 3 months, 1 year, and 5 years. Suicide risk was over 3 times higher than in people without CSU. Demographics: Younger and White patients with CSU had the highest increase in risk. Treatment impact: Patients using guideline-recommended treatments like second-generation antihistamines or omalizumab had lower death rates. INFOGRAPHIC The Itch Review, hosted by Dr. Gupta, Kortney, and Dr. Blaiss, explores allergy and immunology studies, breaking down complex research in conversations accessible to clinicians, patients, and caregivers. Each episode provides key insights from journal articles and includes a one-page infographic in the show notes for easy reference.   Made in partnership with The Allergy & Asthma Network.

antihisztamint adott neki, és megnyugtatta.En: Judit acted quickly; she gave him an antihistamine and reassured him.Hu: Aztán döntött: „Megvizsgálom a vizeletmintát és beszélek pár kollégával.”En: Then she decided: "I will examine the urine sample and talk to some colleagues."Hu: Gergő és Judit egy csapatként dolgoztak.En: Gergő and Judit worked as a team.Hu: Gergő az önkormányzattól kért vízmintákat, hogy laborvizsgálatokat kezdeményezzenek.En: Gergő requested water samples from the local government to initiate lab tests.Hu: Közben Judit egy régi orvosi könyvben kutatott lehetséges okok után.En: Meanwhile, Judit was researching possible causes in an old medical book.Hu: Eközben Zoltán a váróteremben ült, a távoli Balatont nézte az ablakon át.En: Meanwhile, Zoltán sat in the waiting room, looking at the distant Balaton through the window.Hu: Hitt benne, hogy fényt derítenek az ügyére.En: He believed they would shed light on his case.Hu: Néhány nap múlva Judit izgatottan sietett vissza a rendőrőrsre.En: A few days later, Judit hurried back to the police station excitedly.Hu: „Megtaláltam!” - kiáltotta.En: "I found it!" she exclaimed.Hu: „Egy ritka algafaj virágzik a tóban.En: "A rare species of algae is blooming in the lake.Hu: Ez okozza az allergiád!”En: That's causing your allergy!"Hu: A felfedezést követően sürgős intézkedéseket tettek.En: Following the discovery, urgent measures were taken.Hu: Figyelmeztették a lakókat, és tájékoztatták a vendégeket.En: The residents were warned, and the guests were informed.Hu: Zoltán óvatosabb lett, de boldog, hogy tudja, mi történik.En: Zoltán became more cautious but happy to know what was happening.Hu: A probléma megoldódott.En: The problem was solved.Hu: Zoltán elkezdett részt venni a természetvédelmi munkákban, Gergő pedig hírnevet szerzett a közösségben, mint megbízható rendőr.En: Zoltán began participating in conservation work, and Gergő gained a reputation in the community as a reliable officer.Hu: Judit pedig megerősödött orvosi tudásában, és fontolóra vette, hogy tovább képezze magát.En: Judit enhanced her medical knowledge and considered further training.Hu: A faluban ismét béke honolt.En: Peace returned to the village.Hu: A Balaton vizén a napfény játszott, és Zoltán újra élvezhette az úszást, most már tudva, hogy vigyázni kell rá.En: The sun played on the waters of Balaton, and Zoltán could enjoy swimming again, now knowing to be careful.Hu: A tó és a közösség épsége most már mindannyiuk kezeiben volt.En: The safety of the lake and the community was now in all of their hands.
