Histamine intolerance is a condition where individuals experience symptoms in response to foods that either contain histamine or trigger its release. These symptoms mimic those of an allergic reaction and can impact various systems in the body.
The low histamine diet works by reducing the intake of foods that are high in histamine or trigger the release of histamine. This helps to minimize the overall histamine load in the body, alleviating symptoms such as headaches, hives, digestive issues, and more. The diet also involves avoiding foods that may block the activity of diamine oxidase (DAO), an enzyme responsible for breaking down histamine in the digestive system.
Navigating a busy lifestyle while adhering to a low histamine diet can be challenging, especially with the restriction on leftovers due to their higher histamine content. That's why we're here - to guide you through overcoming histamine intolerance and supporting your body's healing process by preparing simple and nourishing meals that cater to your body's needs.
