Histamine intolerance is a complex condition, often misunderstood and misdiagnosed. For many it can be severe and worrying. Symptoms can include itching, flushing, hives, tissue swelling, throat tightening, digestive problems, drop in blood pressure, increased heart rate and headaches. Histamine intolerance is often misdiagnosed as allergy.
There are many reasons why you can build up an excess of histamine within your body. Symptoms can change constantly in terms of frequency and severity and each person’s capacity to deal with it is different.
