Histamine Intolerance isn’t actually an intolerance. It’s a build-up of histamine in the body when the body is deficient in DAO, the enzyme that breaks down histamine. This can happen as a side-effect of certain medications, GI conditions that limit the ability to absorb nutrients including leaky gut, Celiac Disease, Crohn’s Disease, SIBO, and other GI conditions, high intake of high histamine foods and intake of foods that block DAO production.<\/p>\n
Thankfully, a low-histamine diet and specific supplementation is often a game-changer for many people suffering from this condition. Food is the foundation of health. Supplements and medications always work better when food is where it needs to be.<\/p>\n
Who benefits from a Low-Histamine Diet?<\/h2>\n
Those with:<\/p>\n
- \n
- random hives\/severe reactions to foods with no rhyme or reason<\/li>\n
- diagnosed with histamine intolerance<\/li>\n
- Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)<\/li>\n
- POTS<\/li>\n
- Severe seasonal allergies where allergy medications offer little relief<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Can all benefit from a low-histamine diet. Depending on the reason will determine the length of time needed to follow it.<\/p>\n
What does a Low-Histamine Diet look like?<\/h2>\n
A low-histamine diet is a temporary, therapeutic diet that limits the intake of histamine. This requires cooking from scratch, avoiding condiments, fermented foods, boxed foods, precooked foods, and freezing any and all leftovers immediately after cooling. No leftovers being stored in the fridge. You also will need to avoid high histamine foods like avocados and strawberries for a period of time, and also foods that trigger a histamine release like alcohol, chocolate, and wheat.<\/p>\n
Whoa, that’s like all the best foods! Avocado and chocolate?! What does life even look like without these foods? It’s hard to visualize what eating without our favorite foods can look like. Right now it looks like a whole lot of misery.<\/p>\n
