Histamine-rich foods can trigger headaches, skin irritation, or diarrhea.
Certain medications or conditions can increase the chance of histamine sensitivity. Some foods are histamine liberators potentially increasing histamine levels eliciting allergic responses.
An anti-histamine diet is a dietary approach aimed at minimizing the intake of histamine and foods that trigger histamine release in the body. Histamine is a chemical compound involved in the immune system’s inflammatory response. While it plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, excess histamine can lead to uncomfortable symptoms like:
- Skin rashes and itching
- Headaches
- Digestive issues (abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea)
- Difficulty breathing
- Swelling
- Fatigue
