Discover how the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) affects histamine intolerance and why it might be the missing piece in understanding your symptoms.

• DAO is an extracellular digestive enzyme that breaks down histamine from food and drinks
• DAO deficiency can occur from gut damage, inflammation, or conditions like IBS, IBD, and SIBO
• Nutrient deficiencies in copper, vitamin B6, vitamin C, zinc, and magnesium can reduce DAO effectiveness
• Genetic variances like AOC1 SNPs may cause naturally lower DAO production
• Over 50 medications including NSAIDs, antidepressants, and antihistamines can block DAO production
• Hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause, menopause, and menstrual cycles affect DAO levels
• Alcohol inhibits DAO production while also adding to histamine load
• Stress depletes nutrients needed for DAO and contributes significantly to deficiency
• Many women take DAO supplements to help manage symptoms when eating high histamine foods

If you're ready to begin a low histamine diet, you can download the low histamine diet starter plan on my website at histaminehealthcoach.com. I've also gathered trusted supplement options in the wellness booster section for those who have spoken with their physician.

I’m currently looking for five women who are ready to stop just managing histamine intolerance and start living well with it over the next 12 weeks. This is for women who feel like their bodies dictate their lives — women who are tired of reacting, restricting, and second-guessing. Women looking for relief, steadier routines, and the kind of confidence that leads to actually living well with histamine intolerance. If that’s you, email me at [email protected] with the word READY, and I’ll personally follow up so we can talk about what support might look like for you.
