People all over the world suffer from histamine intolerance without being aware of it. We itch, sneeze, suffer from joint pain, inflammation, sleep disorders, irritability, anxiety, bowel disease, diarrhea, flatulence, stomach pain, heartburn and acid reflux, nausea, bloating and other digestive problems, eczema, psoriasis, tissue swelling, urticaria (hives), itching skin, itching scalp, sinusitis, runny nose, puffy eyes, hay fever, asthma, and breathing difficulties, or endure tension headaches, migraines, fuzzy thinking, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, painful periods (women), sudden drops in blood pressure, faintness or flushing. Symptoms may endure throughout our entire lives if we continue to consume large amounts of histamine without knowing it. Histamine is colorless, odorless and tasteless - undetectable except by scientific analysis, and yet crucial to our well-being. Individual histamine tolerance thresholds vary greatly. A range of circumstances including our genes, our environment, our diet and stress, cause our bodies' histamine levels to rise. If they rise faster than our bodies can break them down, we experience the excessive inflammation brought on by histamine intolerance, or HIT. The good news is, if we can understand what is happening and why, we can treat or prevent this widely unrecognized condition. By far the best way to treat histamine intolerance is with diet. All foods with the potential to raise histamine levels should be avoided until your health improves significantly. This book discusses HIT in depth, including causes, symptoms and therapies, backed by scientific research. Along with a list of foods to help HIT sufferers, it includes a wide range of recipes for everything from entrées to desserts. Find out more at http: //www.low-histamine.com/

Product description

Review

"In this book, [Gibb] shows the results of a wide-ranging investigation of the relationship between nutrition and health, suggesting that HIT intolerance may contribute to conditions as disparate as allergies, bowel disease, eczema, heartburn, stomach pain, joint pain, anxiety, psoriasis and sleep disorders, among others. ... His innovative approach is bolstered by careful, thoughtful investigation, and motivated by an urge to help others. ... Practical, valuable information that offers a measure of hope for those suffering from a chronic physical condition." - Kirkus Reviews

Lacks credibility

This book is just OK. I came to this book because there is a lot of conflicting information on the internet about what foods are high histamine or histamine liberators, also which increase DAO. I just wanted some straight facts. But here's what bothered me after I read the book: Who is James L. Gibb, and why should I trust him with my health? I read his bio in the back of the book. He's a "university graduate with a diploma of education." What university? What kind of a degree? Doesn't say. It also says he's an "educator, writer and health researcher." Really? Where does he teach? And how is his research fact-checked? Much of this "research" can be found on the internet. In fact, I could see where material from an interview with Dr. Janice Joneha was lifted from a YouTube video with The Low Histamine Chef. Also, he cites Wikipedia as a source, which I thought was kind of amateur. As for the layout, that's amateur, too. Some parts are single spaced and other parts are double spaced. The font also changes in size. It's like this book was just thrown together, without any regard for consistency. Such sloppiness makes me question the quality of the research. Take this book with a grain of salt, and don't let it be the definitive word on low-histamine. I'm sure there is some good information in here, but I'm not sure which parts to trust and which parts I can't. You might get more out of googling Dr. Jance Joneja and reading her book on the subject. YouTube has a few good interviews by her. Also, I agree with other posters on here: the recipes are not very exciting.

I have tried Chinese med but was getting worse. At one point i was on mold free

This book saved my life. For last 5 years i was suffering from allergies. Doctors put my on prednison and told me that i will be on it for rest of my life. I couldn't sleep, i couldn't laugh, i was coughing so badly people around me were scared that i have TB At one point i got in hospital and almost died from allergies. All tests for food allergies were negative. I was told that i have ABPA, i was told that i have allergies to mold, to grass, trees ... you name it but not food. i even moved from east coast to west close to ocean, hopping that being in clean and less humid place will help. Nothing was helping.
I asked my doctors ( i have changed at list 5 of them) why do i get sinus congestion when i drink alcohol nobody could answer. Another doctor put me on xolair injections for 6 month, which cost me $8000k, didn't work.,doctor told me i have to be on it for one year in order med to work. I have two kids and i told my husband that being on prednison for rest of my life is not an option and i constantly was looking for nontraditional ways to def-fit my sever allergies. I have tried Chinese med but was getting worse. At one point i was on mold free, sugar free diet didn't help, no wonder it is based on protein no carb diet. Then i found this book on amazon ( i bough about 10 different books before) and everything made sense. I have been on histamine free diet for two month, i was lowering my prednison very slowly and as of today i am of it. I don't cough, i do get sinus some time but i use peppermint oil around my nostrils and use homeopathic Similasan, nasal allergy relif and it helps me a lot. I want to scream so everyone will hear me that there is way to cure for almost everything you just need not to give up and keep trying. There is no words to describe my thanks to James L. Gibb.

Great Info but not all the info

This is a wonderful book about histamine rich foods and how a person who doesn't tolerate histamine very well can start to feel sick when eating them. Although it is pretty thick with pages and info, after reading it I discovered that it is missing quite a bit of information regarding histamines. There is much more out there in research not yet mentioned in this book such as essential oils that can work as antihistamines etc. The author should look into other angles regarding histamines and write a sequel in my opinion.

Histamine Diet book

After using antibiotics I found that certain foods were causing all sorts of issues for me and learned that antibiotics can cause degradation of a good bacteria that helps with oxalates in foods. With that said, histamine issues can go along with it as well. This book is very helpful and the only one I could find that address histamine issues with foods. I highly recommend!

but I like having everything packed in one book

I read the chapters in this book yesterday and have started looking through the recipes. Interesting how high levels of histamine can mimic food allergies (and, explains why I have had reactions to foods but am not allergic to them). The book covers food, vitamins, herbs, etc. It is a quick read, and you can find a lot of the information online, but I like having everything packed in one book.
