Podcasts about Histamine

1. Lack of sleep You could feel exhausted all the time simply because you lack sleep. Alcohol, overtraining, and eating too late can interfere with sleep. Chocolate consumption can increase theobromine, similar to caffeine, which can interfere with sleep if consumed too late. Try taking magnesium one hour before bed to help you relax. Vitamin B1 is also vital for quality sleep. Did you know that going outside in the morning to watch the sunrise can improve your sleep? Try it!2. Cellular hypothyroidismThyroid hormones go into every cell in your body, controlling metabolism and energy levels. If your thyroid is not working properly, you will likely experience fatigue. Increase selenium to improve thyroid function. Brazil nuts, sardines, shellfish, and grass-fed liver are excellent sources of selenium.3. StressA severe stress, such as the loss of a loved one, can cause your immune system to shut down because of the cortisol spike. This allows latent viruses like the Epstein-Barr virus to come out of remission and cause chronic fatigue syndrome. High doses of vitamin D can help.Try making your own L. reuteri yogurt, one of the best remedies for high cortisol. Increasing magnesium and sodium and taking long walks in the woods can also reduce cortisol levels. 4. Histamine overload An enzyme in your body naturally breaks down histamine. Alcohol, medications, and gut damage can inhibit this enzyme's function, increasing histamine levels. Avoid aged cheeses, vinegar, canned fish, and fermented vegetables if you suspect a histamine sensitivity. 5. Blood sugarConsuming high amounts of carbohydrates or sugar during the day often leads to blood sugar fluctuations at night. Frequent night waking decreases energy during the day. Carb consumption depletes vitamin B1, which can cause restless legs syndrome, waking you up.6. Sleep disturbances Sleep apnea and being too hot or too cold can interfere with your sleep. Frequent urination caused by too much snacking or too many carbs can also be the culprit. 7. Protein intake If you're not consuming enough high-quality protein, it could be the reason you're feeling exhausted all the time. Try adding more protein to each meal for a significant improvement in energy. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Britney opens up about her personal journey with PMDD — from misdiagnosis and confusion to self-advocacy and empowerment. She dives into the many possible root causes of PMDD, including hormonal imbalances, gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and environmental factors, emphasizing that PMDD isn't just “in your head” — it's often the result of complex physiological and psychological interactions. One key theme throughout the conversation is the role of trauma, and how unresolved emotional wounds can manifest or intensify PMDD symptoms. Britney also offers heartfelt and empowering advice to women who are struggling: from finding the right practitioners to the importance of self-compassion, community, and nervous system regulation. Her message is both hopeful and validating, reminding listeners that healing is possible — and that they're not alone.Britney Marsden, known as "The PMDD Chick," is a dedicated Women's Health Coach specializing in Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD).

Send us a textThis week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I'm answering two listener questions—one about histamine intolerance and another about gut testing for a 3-year-old with allergies and chronic symptoms. If you've ever wondered whether histamine is really the problem or if stool testing is worth the investment, this episode is for you.In this episode, I share why histamine intolerance is almost always a secondary issue (not the root cause), what body systems need support instead, and how I approach gut testing in young kids—especially when allergies, itching, and immune symptoms are involved. I also walk through how to think critically about testing and what questions to ask before you invest.KEY TAKEAWAYS:Why histamine isn't the root cause—and what usually isHow symptoms like allergies, flushing, anxiety, or hives can signal deeper dysfunctionWhen DAO enzymes might help—and why I rarely use themWhat the GI MAP stool test actually reveals (and what it doesn't)The #1 mistake people make with testing—and how to avoid itHow to think like a practitioner when evaluating symptoms, history, and lab data❓Questions for Christa?

214: In this episode, I'm diving into all things histamine—what it is, how it functions, and why it might be the missing link in your hormone and immune health journey. After sharing insights on the connection between histamine sensitivity and hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the response was massive.  I'm unpacking why histamine issues are more than just food reactions, how they relate to estrogen, menopause, and chronic inflammation, and why there's no one-size-fits-all solution. I've dealt with histamine challenges my whole life and supported countless patients through it.  This episode is a deep, honest look at the bigger picture behind histamine imbalance. Topics Discussed:  What are the symptoms of histamine intolerance and how is it connected to hormone imbalances? How does histamine affect estrogen levels and hormone replacement therapy (HRT)? What causes high histamine levels and how can you support balance naturally? What is the difference between histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)? How do lifestyle factors, diet, and gut health influence histamine sensitivity? Sponsored By: Nutrisense | Head over to nutrisense.io/drtyna to get 30% off your Nutrisense plan.

In this encore episode, we detail the intestinal mycobiome and the mechanisms by which beneficial microbes aid in regulating opportunistic fungal species: Candida albicans. We discuss Candida overgrowth virulence and how disruptions in microbial balance, immune function, and epithelial integrity impact Candida's pathogenicity. Additionally, we discuss the role of mast cells in the lamina propria, their involvement in mucosal immunity, and how Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) can be exacerbated by fungal dysbiosis / microbial imbalances.Topics: 1. Introduction - The intestinal mycobiome and its role in intestinal health.  - Regulating populations of opportunistic fungal species like Candida albicans.- Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) intro.   2. Structure of the Intestinal Barrier- The microbiome and mucus layer: microbes, mucins, antimicrobial peptides, sIgA.- The epithelial monolayer: enterocytes, goblet cells, Paneth cells, enteroendocrine cells…- Tight junction proteins and paracellular transport.- The lamina propria beneath the epithelium: immune cells and more. 3. Candida's Pathogenicity and Barrier Disruption- Exists primarily in its yeast form, regulated by microbial competition, host immune defenses, antifungal peptides.  - Secretory IgA (sIgA) and immune surveillance mechanisms help regulate fungal populations. - Chronic stress, immune suppression, and dysbiosis can deplete sIgA, increasing susceptibility to Candida proliferation.  - Environmental triggers such as immune suppression, microbial depletion, inflammatory cytokines.- Yeast-to-hyphal transition, deeper tissue invasion.  - Secreted aspartyl proteinases (SAPs), phospholipases, candidalysin: epithelial damage.- Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and overgrowth detection. 4. Impact of Beneficial Bacteria on Candida Overgrowth  - Beneficial bacteria compete with Candida for nutrients and epithelial adhesion sites.  - Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) produced by beneficial bacteria.- Depletion of beneficial bacteria removes ecological resistance, allowing Candida to proliferate unchecked.   5. Mast Cells in the Lamina Propria and Their Role in Intestinal Immunity- Mast cell location - Upon activation, mast cells release histamine, cytokines, proteases, and more that regulate gut immune responses.  - Histamine can increase gut permeability and modulate local immune activation.  - Tryptase and chymase. - Pro-inflammatory cytokines.  6. Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) - Mast cell hyperactivation.- Environmental triggers, toxins, chronic infections, and stress. - Candida overgrowth and mast cell activation.- Addressing microbial imbalances and reducing the body's total microbial, chemical, and toxin burden.- A diverse microbiome.   7. Conclusion- Candida overgrowth and regulation via immune defenses and beneficial bacterial competition.- MCAS, root cause approach.Get Chloe's Book Today!

When you live with ADHD, you might be used to the mental whirlwind — the dopamine chases, the deadline surges, the exhaustion that follows. But for many, there's a deeper and more insidious battle happening in the background: chronic illness. This week, Pete and Nikki welcome clinical naturopath and passionate advocate Jules Galloway to unpack the tangled web between ADHD, adrenal fatigue, autoimmune conditions, and the gut-brain connection.Drawing from her own experiences with late-diagnosed ADHD and years of working with neurodivergent clients, Jules explains how chronic stress and inflammation can alter the architecture of the brain, and how burnout isn't just a buzzword — it's often a physiological crisis. From cortisol testing and histamine intolerance to why so many ADHDers feel like they're constantly “wired but tired,” this episode brings clarity and compassion to a deeply misunderstood intersection of mental and physical health.Jules also shares practical, empowering strategies for healing — from stabilizing blood sugar with protein-rich meals to reducing inflammation through gut health and sustainable lifestyle changes. It's a conversation full of insight, empathy, and real-world tools for anyone struggling to understand the full-body impact of living with ADHD.Links & NotesJules Galloway's website: julesgalloway.com

If you're navigating midlife and feeling like your body has started working against you—despite clean eating and consistent workouts—this episode is your wake-up call. Angela is joined by functional nutritionist Louise Digby to explore the lesser-known culprits behind stubborn weight, fatigue, and hormonal havoc in perimenopause. Forget willpower. This conversation reframes weight loss resistance through the lens of gut health, toxic load, and nutrient insufficiencies. From brittle nails and dry skin to unexpected acne flare-ups, Louise uncovers the hidden metabolic and hormonal messages your body is sending—and how to respond with science, not shame. KEY TAKEAWAYS Gut Health Trumps Willpower: Many women have gut imbalances without symptoms—but these silent issues can stall fat loss and disrupt hormones. Toxic Load Sabotages Hormones: Environmental toxins from skincare, pollutants, and food can overwhelm your liver and impair hormone detox pathways. Nutrient Insufficiencies Are Common: Even with a healthy diet, modern stress and poor soil deplete key nutrients like magnesium, B vitamins, and vitamin D. Metabolic Clues You’re Missing: Cold hands, brittle nails, poor recovery, and stubborn weight can all signal compromised metabolic health—not laziness. Histamine Intolerance in Perimenopause: Symptoms like rosacea, joint pain, and sinus issues may be worsened by declining histamine tolerance and poor gut health. One Size Doesn’t Fit All: Every woman’s root cause is different—testing and personalised nutrition are key to reclaiming energy and vitality. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS 0:00 – Introduction 1:05 – Silent gut issues and how they sabotage fat loss 2:21 – Toxic load: from skincare to hormonal disruption 3:52 – Why good diets still result in nutrient insufficiencies 5:03 – Clues your metabolism is slowing down 6:48 – Top nutrient gaps: B vitamins, magnesium, vitamin D 9:36 – The hair loss and iron connection in perimenopause 12:14 – Why adult acne and rosacea emerge in perimenopause 13:09 – Histamine intolerance, joint pain, and the gut-skin link VALUABLE RESOURCES Get a free snapshot of your health and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Join The High Performance Health Community A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Sign up to my Fresh Start Newsletter: Start your week feeling in control with one simple, science-backed step for your hormones, health and longevity—get your free weekly fresh start at angelafoster.me/freshstart ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Doctor's Farmacy with Mark Hyman, MD Key Takeaways  Histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) can be the hidden drivers behind a wide range of chronic conditions, such as fatigue, brain fog, food sensitivities, and skin issues – yet, histamine intolerance is often overlooked by conventional medicineMCAS is a condition where certain immune cells – called mast cells – release too many chemicals (like histamine) at the wrong timesUsing diet as a short-term therapeutic tool: A low-histamine diet or Low-FODMAP Dietis not a lifelong diet because tons of healthy foods have histamine in them Consume the freshest foods possible and avoid leftovers, as histamine levels in food rise over time after preparationFoods that are traditionally categorized as “healthy” may be contributing to your histamine issues; these include: aged meats, cheeses, fermented foods, and dairy Even though they are generally healthy, consuming them is like throwing gas on your histamine fire Implementing a low-histamine diet in three phases Phase 1 – remove alcohol, especially beer, wine, and champagne Phase 2 – remove canned and smoke fish (examples: anchovies), processed and fermented meats, aged cheese, pickled and fermented foods (sauerkraut, kimchi, yogurts, kefir, mustard, ketchups, vinegar, soy sauce)   Phase 3 – remove plant foods such as spinach, avocado, tomatoes, pineapples, citrus foods Treat IBS with a low-FODMAP diet, which is specifically designed to reduce the fermentable carbohydrates that gut bacteria feed on; this helps reduce: gas production, bloating, bacterial Foods to avoid: Garlic, onions, wheat, legumes, milk, soft cheeses, apples, honey, sorbitol, xylitol, stone fruits, artificial sweetenersFoods to consume: Carrots, spinach, bananas, chicken, rice, cheddar cheese, eggsSupplement to support healthy histamine levels:Quercetin – a natural plant compound that helps people with mast cell issues, histamine intolerance, and allergies (with additional benefits to metabolic function) Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgMany people struggle with mysterious symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, food sensitivities, and skin issues—only to be misdiagnosed or dismissed altogether. This conversation highlights how histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome can be the hidden drivers behind a wide range of chronic conditions, and why they're often overlooked in conventional medicine. From the role of gut health, food triggers, and environmental toxins to deeper root causes like Lyme disease or mold exposure, it's clear that personalized, Functional Medicine is key to uncovering real answers. Understanding the immune system's role in histamine reactions—and how even “healthy” foods can be inflammatory for some—is a critical step toward healing. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Todd LePine, Dr. Elizabeth Boham, and Dr. Mark Pimentel about what histamine intolerance is, how it can be related to gut health, and why it's important to address it. Dr. Todd LePine graduated from Dartmouth Medical School and is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, specializing in Integrative Functional Medicine. He is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner. Prior to joining The UltraWellness Center, he worked as a physician at Canyon Ranch in Lenox, MA, for 10 years.

His areas of interest include optimal aging, bio-detoxification, functional gastrointestinal health, systemic inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and the neurobiology of mood and cognitive disorders. Dr. LePine enjoys skiing, kayaking, hiking, camping, and golfing in the beautiful Berkshires, and is a fitness enthusiast. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Albany Medical School, and she is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and the Medical Director of The UltraWellness Center.

Dr. Jockers explains the connection between poor gut function and elevated histamine levels, and how supporting these systems can reduce symptoms.   You'll discover how stress, sleep, and nutrient deficiencies play a role in histamine metabolism. The episode highlights key nutrients that support histamine breakdown, such as vitamin B6, copper, and vitamin C.   Lastly, you'll understand why histamine-rich foods aren't always the root cause.

Histamine intolerance is more than just allergies. In this episode, Liz and Becca break down the root causes of histamine overload and why symptoms like bloating, rashes, fatigue, food reactions, and mood swings could all point to poor histamine metabolism—not random sensitivities. You'll learn how stress, gut imbalances, SIBO, poor DAO enzyme function, and even your genetics can all trigger histamine issues—and why fermented foods, collagen, and kombucha might be making your symptoms worse. If you've tried elimination diets or allergy meds and still feel inflamed, puffy, or reactive… this episode is your missing piece. ***

In this encore episode, we discuss the role of histamine within the gastrointestinal tract, detailing its regulation of gastric acid secretion and impact on intestinal motility. We examine how histamine-producing enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells, mast cells, and gut microbiota contribute to histaminergic signaling, and how enzymatic degradation via diamine oxidase (DAO) maintains homeostasis. Additionally, we discuss histamine intolerance, highlighting the impacts of dysbiosis (as well as SIBO or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) and intestinal barrier dysfunction on DAO insufficiency and histamine accumulation.Topics: 1.

If you've ever felt like your body is falling apart and no doctor can tell you why—this episode is for you. I'm joined by Dr. Jaban Moore, a functional medicine chiropractor who's made it his mission to help people heal from the real root causes of chronic illness—especially the ones most doctors overlook. We get into two things that are finally getting the attention they deserve: nervous system dysregulation and autoimmune overwhelm—specifically Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and histamine intolerance. These are major reasons so many people are struggling with fatigue, food sensitivities, inflammation, reactivated viruses, and mystery symptoms that get dismissed as “just anxiety.” Dr. Jaban shares his own health journey and breaks down: The difference between histamine intolerance and MCAS Why your anxiety, pain, or fatigue might be coming from emotional trauma or nervous system chaos How foundational habits (sunlight, sleep, slowing down) matter more than any supplement Whether elimination diets and food sensitivity tests are healing or just bandaids If you'll ever be able to eat an avocado or tomato again (hint: yes, but not overnight) How to know if you're actually herxing… or just making things worse If you've been told your symptoms are “all in your head,” this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air. You're not crazy. You're not broken. And yes—healing is possible.

What if the very things you do to feel or look better are quietly making you feel worse? In this solo episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein answers listener questions—but what begins as a practical Q&A quickly dives into rarely discussed truths about cosmetic procedures, EMFs, neuroinflammation, and even fragrances as dangerous triggers. You'll hear surprising stories from patients who've suffered unexpected complications—and discover how seemingly harmless habits, like party tricks or perfume, could be tipping the scale toward long-term damage. Plus, Dr. Bluestein unpacks the case for renaming MCAS, the underrecognized connection between transness and hypermobility, and why your surgeon might not be as EDS-aware as they claim. If you think you've already heard it all about EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes), HSD (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders), MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome), and chronic illness—you haven't heard this. Takeaways: You might be surprised to learn which test isn't as useful for diagnosing MCAS as people think. The brain fog you're feeling? There's a cellular player involved—and it's not just inflammation. Some reactions you're calling “allergies” might be something very different (and trickier to detect). The way mast cells interact with the brain could change how we think about neurodevelopment. A few supplements could help—but only if you're asking the right questions first.

If your body is super reactive… even the tiniest change can set off awful symptoms – then you should consider the spectrum of mast cell activation diseases.What most people find enjoyable, like healthy foods, exercise, or even sunlight, can make some feel horrible. Often these symptoms are beyond just “histamine intolerance symptoms.”And while others around you might think you're just “being dramatic” or “making a mountain out of a molehill,” it's clear to you that your body is extremely more reactive than others.It can be hard to get a clear diagnosis and help if you are struggling with mast cell activation diseases – including those with hypermobility syndrome issues like Ehlers-Danlos.If your life feels like you're constantly navigating a minefield of unexpected symptoms to the smallest things, I'm joined by Michelle Shapiro, RD, to talk about what causes you to have a “highly sensitive body.”Michelle Shapiro, RD is an Integrative/Functional Registered Dietitian in NYC who has helped over 1000+ clients reverse their anxiety, heal long-standing gut and immune issues, and approach their weight in a loving way.

Today, I am thrilled to speak with Dr. Cory Jones to delve into the concept of the "middle pause," which refers to the transition from perimenopause to menopause. We'll examine how lifestyle habits that were effective in women's 20s and 30s may lose their efficacy during this phase. Dr. Jones emphasizes the reduced capacity to "burn the candle at both ends" and the transition from people-pleasing to more straightforward communication. We'll cover the behavioral impacts of hormonal changes, the significance of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and the importance of adrenal health. We both stress the need for women to seek supportive healthcare providers and embrace this transitional period. Tune in! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: The concept of "middle pause," encompassing perimenopause and menopause Changes in lifestyle habits and their effectiveness during this transitional phase Decline of people-pleasing tendencies and the shift toward direct communication Impact of hormonal changes on behavior and emotional responses Understanding physiological changes, including hormonal imbalances Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and its effects on mood and well-being Relationship dynamics and challenges faced by women during this transition Self-advocacy and finding supportive healthcare providers Connection between hormonal changes and food sensitivities or allergies Education and awareness regarding health and wellness during aging Bio: Dr. Carrie Jones Dr. Carrie Jones is an internationally recognized speaker, consultant, author, and educator on the topic of women's health and hormones with over 20 years in the industry.
