Hello folks, I believe that I am histamine intolerant. I brake out in rashes or hives when I eat high histamine foods or beverages. I developed this sensitivity while tapering off an SSRI. I am wondering if DAO supplements work. They are expensive and I'm unsure if I should try a supplement of this nature.

I had very good luck with Essential Enzymes when I was having trouble with digesting food. I wonder if taking an antihistamine before you eat would help? Of course they would be about the same price. Perhaps avoiding the high histamine foods until your body readjusts to not taking the SSRI would help.

Thanks for the reply. I am trying to do a low histamine diet this week. I never had sensitivities (hives, flushing) until I started to taper off Paxil. I hope the low histamine diet helps me.
