Gary - DAO

I take one pill about 20 minutes before eating all meals. If I know I am eating higher histamine meals then I will take more depending on my guestimate of how much histamine is in the meal. The max I have ever taken is four pills at once, which has been enough to counteract high histamine meals which used to give me major troubles. You can't overdose on it but your body will only use what it needs so if you take too much you are basically throwing money down the drain. My biggest problem is when eating snacks or desserts which aren't close to meal time. I usually never think of taking DAO at those times and sometimes I pay the price. My biggest offenders in that area are fruits and chocolate candy. You should also take it before consuming alcohol but I don't drink.
