Got allergies?
–
This talk was all about how allergy symptoms are just a response to histamine.
–
The body reacts to the TOTAL amount of histamine. So, if we can lower histamine issues from things we can control, then we can potentially eliminate allergy responses.
–
These are things like:
?Not enough Vitamin A
?Too much PUFA in the diet
?Lack of Diamine Oxidase (the enzyme that breaks down histamine)
?Lack of copper, B6, and Vitamin C (all needed to create and use diamine oxidase)
?High estrogen (in general or during menstrual cycle peaks)
?Medications – Certain meds can degrade DAO, Inhibit B6, or liberate more histamine.
–
Any or all of these things can lead to a histamine intolerance that can create allergy responses.
–
Try these out and let me know!
