EP 237: Histamine Intolerance, MCAS, Long COVID & Hormone Symptoms: What Women Are Missing
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.
