                                EDS is a group of genetic disorders affecting the body’s connective tissues, specifically impacting the production and structure of collagen. Because of this fundamental defect, a common question is: **should people with EDS eat more protein**? The answer is nuanced, focusing on *adequate* intake to support muscle and tissue repair, rather than correcting the underlying genetic issue.
