Nutrition / Dietetics

37 EDS specialists in this category

Nutritionists and dietitians experienced with EDS address the GI issues, mast cell activation, and nutritional deficiencies common in connective tissue disorders through targeted dietary strategies. EDS patients frequently have co-occurring conditions like gastroparesis and MCAS that require specialized dietary protocols, including low-histamine diets and easily digestible meal plans. Common nutritional deficiencies in EDS include vitamin D, magnesium, vitamin C (critical for collagen synthesis), and B vitamins. A knowledgeable dietitian will coordinate with your GI specialist and allergist to create a plan that addresses multiple overlapping conditions.

Nutrition / Dietetics specialists are most concentrated in Massachusetts (4), Kansas (2), New Jersey (2).

About Nutrition / Dietetics

Eating well with EDS can be complicated. Between food sensitivities from MCAS, nausea from gastroparesis, and the extra nutritional demands of a connective tissue disorder, figuring out what to eat becomes a real challenge. A dietitian who understands EDS can help you build a plan that actually works with your body instead of against it.

What to Expect

The dietitian will ask about your current eating patterns, food reactions, GI symptoms, and any diagnosed conditions like MCAS or gastroparesis. They may review recent lab work for nutritional deficiencies. Come prepared to describe a typical day of eating and any foods that seem to trigger symptoms. Follow-up visits are common since dietary changes are usually made gradually.
