I'm glad you found a solution to uten I suffer the same from that plus the histamine intolerance, which I'm still trying to find a dr for. Every dr is specializing now. No one treats the whole body. Not good.

I also was pretty sure i had ataxia for years in my 20s, heavy head, unfocussed, terrible skin issues, felt like i came off a boat most of the time. horrible. The single best thing for me was a meat + veg only diet (zero sugar, low carb, no alcohol, lots of cold showers) for 3-4 weeks then continued as much as possible. I highly suspect its all related to gut health, which takes a very long time to get back on track. The doctors (in the UK) are largely useless with this type of condition. And i found once the gut/system has been given a long time with natural meat + veg to heal up, you can then enjoy most things in moderation. I think my years of pizza and beer at university made my system go "fk this!" :D

How are you doing today ❤ ?

Gluten is the devil for sure! I will never ever knowingly eat it again.Glad you figured out your trigger.

@@MountainCarpenterEagle Honestly, I'm still learning my own body's perfect "protocol." The immunity mushroom blend I was taking was "plnt" brand "mushroom immunity blend." Get Pelz's book, "Fast Like a Girl" and get your immune system cleaned up with that as a practical guide to fasting and eating. It takes time and patience, but you can't get an "exact protocol" from anyone...you have to listen to your own body and work it out. That being said, you probably have an MCAS/histamine intolerance so look up what I noted about that in my OP. Best wishes to you! You CAN get this under control with what I've given you, and there isn't any more I can do for you because your body is totally different than mine. I've learned that the hard way.

@@MountainCarpenterEagle My response disappeared...? Anyway, I thought I had SIBO (bloating) until I discovered Ayurveda food combining rules. Bye-bye bloat. As for my perfect protocol...I'm still looking for that; everyone needs to experiment and find their own, but fasting _and_ what you eat when you are eating is key. It's individual, though; don't let anyone fool you into thinking otherwise, that there's a "magic diet" that will fix you. Well, there is, but it's _unique to you_ and only you can find it. I'm still refining mine even though I'm tons better. Best to you and I hope this posts and sticks around!

I wish I could talk to you. I have been eating three foods for almost three years. I react to touching food that is outside of my three foods.

@@hellofromJudy I deleted my email address response but it should still show up in your notifications.

Intermittent Fasting caused me to get symptoms apparently as my body reacted to it with stress causing rise in histamine

Hi wondering a year or so later if you ever found relief for your histamines and if so what protocol did you use. I am miserable with histamine intolerance and just starting to investigate.

I hope this is behind you by now, but just in case here's my experience and I hope it's encouraging. Using L-Glutamine (Nutricost), whole ketogenic clean foods, immune boosting mushroom blends, and FASTING I totally healed myself of the most severe case of histamine intolerance I'm aware of. I was SO intolerant that eating anything at all caused me a severe asthma attack just from the histamine released by my body to produce stomach acid. I self-diagnosed when I thought I had really bad allergies (not knowing it was eating that was the problem) to grass, leaves, mold, etc so I started fasting to reset my gut and then noticed that I was FINE as long as I didn't EAT. So, I learned about histamine intolerance from doctors like Dr. Lynch (thank you!!!), found the MCAS food lists, and started healing my gut and only eating whole, clean keto foods on the "low histamine" MCAS lists to avoid symptoms while I was healing my gut. I fasted 23:1 80% of the time, 16:8 20% of the time and threw in a 3-day fast every month. I went from not being able to swallow anything without a reaction to being able to eat all the high histamine food I want after 5 months with that regimen. Now, I keep taking the L-Glutamine and I continue to fast, but I read Dr. Mindy Pelz's book, "Fast Like a Girl" and go according to my hormonal needs as a woman. I'm 51, female, 5'2", started at 129 lbs, now working to maintain my weight at 103 lbs (I still tend to lose by IF but Dr. Mindy's book is helping with that). My stem cell and human growth hormone production is through the roof as strongly evidenced by my majorly cut musculature. I haven't been this ripped since I was 30 and lifting weights at the gym regularly (which I'm not now, LOL). I live an active lifestyle, but WOW.

@@lindapelle8738 Did KZfaq alert you to my response to the OP? I healed my histamine intolerance; see above. It IS possible. Emotional health is a big part of it that most people don't address because they don't realize it's connected. Dr. Will Cole's book "Gut Feelings" was essential. Best to you!

Are you still practicing?

Glad I could help!

@@DrBenLynch I still need so much help, need some guidance. Overwhelmed with one day good and too many flare ups with food, feel better when I don’t eat. Oxalates a problem as well as histamine intolerance, can’t think, body and joints hurt and poor quality of life. Gut issues.

What did you use? 23andme?

@@tommyortiz6623 yes, I used 23andme in the past. I’m currently working with Bob Miller at Tree of Life. Highly recommend.

@@michele_daniella nice what does your routine and diet look like using them? My fear is that I have health condition creating these little inflamed tumors/(cancer?) I was in between insurance so I couldn’t get it checked out

@@tommyortiz6623 diet is paleo. Main component of treatment deals with mast cells. But I have a lot of compromised detox pathways and mutations in general. Best of luck to you on your journey. P.S. treat for parasites. 😉

Is 23and me used for genetic testing? Curious what the cost is. I have inerstitial cystitis histamine reaction in bladder, ouch leaky gut IBSC etc fibromyalgia . Can you tell me if you ever had gut symptoms? I feel this is my root cause. Trying to figure out best supplements to start with fir reducing histamine load and doses. Thank you any recommendations would be appreciated.

I have heard from several people online who have histamine intolerance + studied it extensively recommend ONLY soil based probiotic and nothing else. I have not confirmed one way or the other whether this will work for me.

​@@peanutbutterpluto how 8s soil base . How is soil base probiotic?

I know what you mean. I’m 50 with 3 children all who I suspect as having mthfr issues (along with myself). I just ordered the book plus some supplements and hoping for the best. I also feel exhausted always trying to figure out what is wrong and spending lots of money but not making much progress. If these ones don’t work I’m going to give up & try to focus on lifestyle - but its pretty hard to convince teens & children to make lifestyle changes.

@@Maggie-zr2ow I don’t think I do but I think my son & daughter do. My daughter had bad eczema as a baby and still gets it as a teen, she always has some patch of broken skin, plus acne. She also has food allergies. My younger son is a magnet to mosquitos and histamine & the bites often create a huge histamine response. My main issue has always been fatigue. Yes I’ve also spent hundreds on supplements over the years!

@@Maggie-zr2ow thank you v much for that advice. I will definitely look into those suggestions for my daughter’s hands and also the acne suggestions. It really is unfortunate that this mthfr gene does so much damage as well as causing acne which is especially unpleasant. It seems so unfair. I suspect my son’s reaction is also related to low B1 levels. I think we’re all deficient in the B vitamins due to the mthfr gene and that is causing the other issues. Thank you again for your suggestions. Wishing us both luck !! X

Great post , thank you . ❤ Don't die, see you in 2500. Decentralization ❤

Great info . Tks. Have you ever tried HISTADINE ❤? .

@@dinomiles7999 I only have it as part of my free form essential aminos complex which has all 9 essential aminos including histidine. I do not have histidine seperately.

What type of potassium do you use?

Where did you learn this ❤?

ha. my eyes love the Blublox. huge improvement

@@DrBenLynch They are fantastic for those of us living in the northern latitudes! That and warm lights ~3-4000 kelvin.

Id consider Gallbladder Nutrients before dinner. Then before bed, 1 capsule of Ox Bile 125. This for a month, then stop Ox Bile 125. Then add Probiota Histaminx after dinner. www.seekinghealth.com/collections/gut-health

So it helped u to get rid of high histamine

Sucking liposomal glutathione definitely gets it across the BBB. One night's sleep then resets the brain fog, mental fatigue and the vulnerability to daytime sleep back to zero. I think that it involves histamine but only in the brain. Triggers that cause typical IgE type allergic responses elsewhere in my body are not effected by sucking liposomal glutathione. I'm going to try swallowing liposomal N-AC next. Please try the liposomal glutathione, I'm sure I'm not the only person who benefits from this.

@@ChrisJohn-dg8mz thanks for reply mate, where do you buy ur product from? Do the G.P also prescribe them for ur adhd or you just take it on your own.

Do you take the liposomal glutathione before bed or when you wake up in the early morning?

It's nearly a year since I discovered this. I suck 200mg of liposome-dissolved glutathione first thing in the morning and I get the benefit 24 hours later. Delicious dreamy REM sleep. I have been sleep-deprived for as long as I can remember so this really surprised me. So far I have not found any other antioxidants that can do this. I take Kaempferia Parviflora (600mg) when I need a boost. It's a PDE inhibitor so it inhibits mast cells. Please try these and then comment.

What was it?

@@presouz5 If I should take quercetin. Yes you can. Quercetin doesn't become a problem unless you take loads of it. An increased amount should be ok to take for a short period of time, like when you're experiencing illness. That's what my understanding was.

that much niacin is usually for high cholesterol

How are you doing today ? ❤

One day they will see.

I like SelfDecode the best. Use their genetic test to get the raw data and they have great reports, too.

ROLE

Yes

you're welcome!

may be the oxalates -- read Sally Norton's "Toxic Superfoods" book.... the renal stones and brutal surgeries over the years...I don't eat oxalates anymore.

My itchy hands was from too much canned foods.

Yes not acupuncture but dry needles in physical therapy

I had a horrible reaction to the histaminx probiotic. Increased itching, bloat and anxiety.

Thank you for sharing! Interesting feedback. Noted!

I think Genova can be useful. As you said, the doctor's interpretation is key and if not good, that's an issue. Ask my team at Seeking Health to get you a list of referrals. ;)

Your diet ?❤.

spike protein is extremely pro-inflammatory. I suspect you would benefit from vitamin D and glutathione to help support a healthy calm immune system.

@@DrBenLynch thank you! I defiantly will. You should look into this. There is people being diagnosed with MCAS after the infection which is odd. Hopefully it ends soon! Even with DAO and antihistamines I can barely eat.

interesting - didn't know this.

I too am taking Zyrtec. I currently do not have anything to replace it hence why I am here. Hopefully this video helps!

Quercetin messed me up!

@@thegrymwolf6360 did you figure out why?

Awesome, thank you!

I had such a terrible case of histamine intolerance that I couldn't tolerate _anything at all._ Here's my journey to health, and I hope it helps you, too. Oh, and my mom, too, couldn't tolerate any supplements because of gelatin, citric acid, etc. in the capsules and formulas. She's better now, too, but not totally out of the woods like I am...yet. Using L-Glutamine (Nutricost), whole ketogenic clean foods, immune boosting mushroom blends, and FASTING I totally healed myself of the most severe case of histamine intolerance I'm aware of. I was SO intolerant that eating anything at all caused me a severe asthma attack just from the histamine released by my body to produce stomach acid.

@@allhimwithme5115Can u share what menu keto you eat everyday while you battling with you histamin intolerance? i'm so bad now. Its just attack my head now. Feeling headache almost the time

You're not alone. I have tried sourcing DAO from other things but pork has the highest DAO level of animals which is why it comes from pork. You can use ProBiota HistaminX after dinner and also HistaminX any time of day. www.seekinghealth.com/products/histaminx

@@DrBenLynch that is not helping. I also take histaminix. I need to heal my gut, but all foods suggested flair up my histamine response. I am day 26 into a water fast that will last 40 days. My "chicken arms" are not getting any better and idk what else to do... i figured fasting would give my gut the best chance to heal. But it seems worse almost. I understand beef would be more expensive for DAO and in lower quantities but I feel there are people that would pay for it, such as me.. unless you have any other suggestions 😥 I'm feeling super lost how to address this

yep. Histamine Block Plus should be very supportive overall especially if you’re struggling with other high histamine symptoms. Definitely read Dirty Genes and especially the DAO chapter

@@DrBenLynch Thank you!! I've read the book once but will definitely go back and reread that section.

Higher dose quercetin is needed to further slow a slow COMT. Using things like Histamine Nutrients is very effective - and there is no quercetin in it. It actually has SAMe which is very helpful for COMT - along with magnesium which is also key. www.seekinghealth.com/products/histamine-nutrients
