Symptoms, conditions and causes
What are the symptoms of histamine intolerance?
Histamine is involved in the immune system, and it’s present in certain foods. If you have histamine intolerance, your body will react to it with inflammation, fatigue, congestion and other symptoms.
Additionally, if you’ve had damage to your stomach or your intestines you could be deficient in a certain enzyme that helps you break down histamines.
Symptoms:
Headaches
Migraines
Stuffy sinuses
Diarrhea
Asthma
Palpitations
Red skin
Hives/itchiness
Vertigo
Low blood pressure
Consuming foods high in histamines
Consuming foods high in histamines will cause them to be high in your body. Your body as a result can treat them as dangerous compounds and activate your immune system when they are detected, causing a reaction to them.
