A groundbreaking new study on hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) is changing how we understand hypermobility. It’s not just about flexible joints—it’s about communication breakdowns between the connective tissue, nervous system, and immune system.

In this episode, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner Laura Lee explains what the research uncovered about collagen structure, mast-cell activation, and autonomic dysfunction—and how these findings validate what so many “bendy” bodies already know.

You’ll learn practical ways to support your system through nutrition, nervous-system regulation, and lifestyle balance, and discover how to calm the “overprotective loop” that keeps symptoms flaring.
