Low Histamine Foods Guide

Low histamine foods may be helpful for people experiencing symptoms such as flushing, headaches, itching, digestive discomfort, or sleep disturbance related to histamine signalling.

Histamine intolerance occurs when the body cannot effectively break down histamine from food or internal release. In some cases this may relate to reduced DAO enzyme activity, gut inflammation, or increased histamine release from immune cells.

A low histamine dietary approach may help reduce symptom load while underlying drivers are addressed.
