I have high histamine and low c3 and c4. I guess it's called hypocomplimentemia something or other. There is a real name for this hahaha.

Histamine causes inflammation. And inflammation makes you feel bad. I don't necessarily have any allergies. Maybe I'm "allergic" to the infections? And that's why my body is producing so much?

Does anyone here have high histamine and know what to do about it besides change your diet? The diet list for this is really hard to stick by. I'm already gluten dairy and sugar free. And soy. I rely on fruits and veggies! The list is about half of what I normally eat. UGH!!

benadryl works, as do other histamine blockers. How about chelation therapy. Heard that helps.

My body doesn't break down histamine either. Following an elimination diet is the best you can do. It's not easy, but the results of such a diet are almost unbelievable, and after a while, uyou can slowly start introducing foods again. And there are supplements you can take when you can't follow the diet, like DAOSIN.
It's

I have a diet translated in English, the one I started with 4 or 5 yrs ago. It helped me tremendously.
Email me if you would like to receive the diet or more information.

My brain isn't working well today to explain how histamine intolerance, leaky gut are going together, heavy brain fog, I'm sorry...

Several factors can make you feel worse at certain moments, like stress.

I've been reading quite a few different things about it. And it's all resonating with me. I hate having to change my diet!!!! I love being able to eat whatever looks good! No gluten dairy soy and sugar is hard enough!

I guess I should give it a go and see what happens. So what youre saying is that once you get the levels down through diet you can add in those foods again and do alright with them? Its not a permanent issue?

You should be able to add in foods, but very slowly, and not everything, and not in unlimited quantities. You will have to listen to your body. One day I can tolerate something, the other not. I can tolerate some foods once a week, or twice, but not more. You learn to eat very pure and clean. And you will feel so much better.
When I'm on a holiday, not having stress, I can eat so much more.

I was truly discouraged when I saw my diet at first, but after 2 weeks, I was attached to it: no more diarrhea, loosing weight so quickly, no more intestinal cramping, my stomach was doing much better.

There is permanent and temporary Histamine Intolerance. I couldn't know what you are suffering from...
