Welcome to the Bone Coach Show dedicated to helping you understand all things related to diet,

lifestyle, bone health, and how you can live and thrive with low bone density and osteoporosis.

I'm your host, Kevin Ellis, certified health coach, health and wellness speaker, and above all else,

your bone coach.

After being diagnosed with osteoporosis in my early 30s, I transform my health

through diet and lifestyle and now help my clients and community members do the same through my online

coaching practice, bonecoach.com. Look, there are no quick and easy cures for low bone density,

but the choices we make every single day can have a powerful impact on our bones, our health, and our

general well-being. I'll share the research, interview the experts, and help you figure out

how to get the conditions right in your body so you can better your bones through diet and

lifestyle. Short disclaimer, I'm not a medical doctor and this show should not be considered

medical advice. Always consult with your

health care team before making medical decisions and changes to your diet and lifestyle. With that being

said, let's get on with the show. When we have an invader come in or an allergen, our immune

system detects that and it will release histamine from either our mass cells or our basophils.

And it has, it does purposes.

So it does things like help with immune defense.

It helps protect us against the pathogens.

It can create an inflammatory response which can have purpose for short term.

We don't want that inflammatory response that lasts forever. But when we have something, an injury or something like that, we need those immune cells to be recruited for that response.

So we also have histamine receptors in our brain, so it can regulate wakefulness, alertness, and change cognitive function, which is why we even see some

things like the anxiety and different symptoms come up when it's out of balance.
