I agree that most doctors don't have a clue, as they don't know how to think outside the box.. I have found that famotidine which is found in the new Zantac 360 has done wonders for me..Famotidine is a H2 (histamine) receptor antagonist..I started getting relief within hours of taking.. I take 10mg in the morning & then 10mg in the evening, roughly 12hrs apart..I can tell when it starts to wear off.. This has done wonders for my bloating, cramping & constipation, which I have suffered with now for over 4yrs.. It might be a help to you as well..

[@luannehopkinson]

Thank you for your comment. I work with clients to help them use natural methods where possible although yes some people do need to use H2 blockers such as Famotidine for a while.

Hi there! Most useful videos I must say. I’m right in the beginning of this ”Journey” and your videos explains everything so well. I’m going to show them for my family and hopefully they understand english. 😆 ❣️

I heard aggressive behavior is a sign of histamine intolerance. I took a probiotic pill once and it made me absolutely psychotic and violent, it literally scared the crap out of me as this is not at ALL like me. I will NEVER take a probiotic supplement again. Is this a sure sign of histamine intolerance?

[@luannehopkinson]

It's a sign of leaky gut and gut dysbiosis, these are also causes of histamine intolerance

[@chantalladouceur3841]

Hi, i’d like to know what step to follow before taking DAO supplements since conventional doctors won’t look into this. Is there a test to take before or there is no harms to add DAO supplements to our diet? Thanks in advance for your kind advices.

[@luannehopkinson]

DAO can be tested in the blood, but can't be tested in the gut, so there is not really a test to find out if your gut is deficient. Most people just try the DAO enzymes with histamine-containing meals and see if they help or not. I don't know your individual case, so they may or may not suit you. I recommend working with a practitioner that does understand histamine intolerance such as a nutritionist like me :-)

Hi I am struggling with histamine intolerance. I need to know where I can get help with this please? I’m 65 now and started this about 6 months ago. GP has dismissed this as MCAS with one negative urine test. I have stopped the foods I know are causing these episodes but I need help with my future diet. I don’t know where to start.

Hi, I would recommend the Happy Without Histamine Method to find and resolve the underlying causes of your issues. Find out why you might have your symptoms in this free Masterclass: hwh.luannehopkinson.net/5histamine-secrets/masterclass-on-demand

I am afraid of food now . I avoid most things and the thought of reintroducing them is not an option as it means I am very ill with palpitations atrial fibrillation and high heart rate dizzy weak confused for three days. I won’t do that to myself. I am fine and healthy as long as I don’t eat many types of food. My doctors response was to say the heart is not connected to your stomach and put me on blood thinners beta blockers and blood pressure meds . Help. In waiting list for immunologist in Ireland that’s about!a 24 month wait

Hi i have question , i had my skin prick test was positive but doctor doesn't know what is it, but I figured out i have problem with cold like air conditioning and cold water , so when i put the a/c on i have trouble breathing and dizziness, even cold shower bothered me,, few days ago i gave my blood for RAST tests so i m waiting for results.. my question is if some food allergies came positive in my blood then what is my next process? Hopefully waiting your response.. thanks.

[@luannehopkinson]

Hi, with my clients I find that cold and wind intolerance is often due to mast cell activation due to nervous system changes. Although allergy can also increase the level of histamine in the body, mast cells react without allergy. You might want to check out my other videos and the info on my website.

[@straightjacketleatha]

I'm curious if you think vitiligo could be caused by high histamine levels ?

[@luannehopkinson]

I'm not sure about that one

[@daphned311]

How do you confirm if HI is caused by estrogen dominance and it hormone issues?

[@luannehopkinson]

You would test hormone levels to see what's going on there. PMS, low progesterone, high estrogen and other hormone symptoms are part of the overall pattern of histamine intolerance. So hormones don't necessarily cause HIT but are part of a cyclic feedback loop. Hormones are best addressed along with gut, immune and stress etc.

[@Nancie6290]

I have had episodes of chronic urticaria for the last three years . I was seen by a dermatologist this year and he said my rashes are not typical for standard allergy . I was curious also about this hormone issue , since I am 64 , and this is the third year it’s happened . The first two years it only lasted 2 months . But this year it’s dragging out now to three months . My dermatologist did say it’s in my immune system so I have been trying to learn a bit about the diet and I want to pursue some natural therapy . I went through menopause around 54 , not much for hot flashes but I noticed this year a bit more of them coinciding with this bout of rashes . Thank you for your info

​@luannehopkinson what about in men ? And on testosterone replacement therapy? My T levels are elevated thus so is my E to match it. Lowering E u gave up on..

[@jada8944]

So , if you do the diet for four weeks and it helps ?? Then what? You just follow that diet for the rest of your life ? 😢

[@luannehopkinson]

Absolutely not! You then test reintroduction so you can test you your personal tolerance level e.g. Histamine Bucket. And you come and see a practitioner like me who understands histamine intolerance and can help you find the root cause of your symptoms. There are many different causes. Check out my website for lots of information about the many causes of histamine symptoms happywithouthistamine.com

@@luannehopkinsonI’ve been suffering with my symptoms for years now been sick ever since I was abruptly taken off clonazepam in 2017 and nothing has been right since I live with severe intermittent abdominal pain that nobody has been able to help me with . Im very upset and frustrated . And been dealing with really bad anxiety and reoccurring vaginal yeast infections for years even before that . So I think I’ve been dealing with it for a long time but now I have severe pain and all these food intolerances plus chemical sensitivities .

[@luannehopkinson]

@@jada8944 I am so sorry to hear about your struggles. That is a very hard situation to be in. Brain Retraining can help the nervous system recalibrate. I can reccomend DNRS or Gupta programs: DNRS bit.ly/2Yepn9A GUPTA bit.ly/2lDEiGJ I also have a program brainfood p.bttr.to/3EezBGv
