Diamin oxidase (DAO)

Diamine Oxidase (DAO) is an enzyme that breaks down histamine, a compound involved in immune responses, gut health, and neurological functions. Adequate DAO levels are crucial for managing histamine levels in the body, preventing histamine intolerance and related symptoms....

Diamin oxidase (DAO)

Who would benefit from testing DAO?

Testing DAO levels is beneficial for individuals experiencing symptoms of histamine intolerance, such as headaches, skin irritation, or digestive issues. It’s also useful for those with allergies, gastrointestinal disorders, or those seeking to understand unexplained symptoms related to histamine activity.

What are symptoms of histamine intolerance?

  • Headaches or migraines
  • Digestive disturbances
  • Skin rashes or hives
  • Nasal congestion or sneezing
  • Fatigue
  • Irregular menstrual cycle
  • Nausea or vomiting

Differences and similarities between histamine intolerance and allergy?

Histamine intolerance arises from the body’s inability to break down histamine efficiently, leading to an accumulation of histamine. Allergy is an immune response to a foreign substance. Both can share similar symptoms like hives, sneezing, or itching, but the underlying causes differ.

How can you improve histamine intolerance?

To improve histamine intolerance:

  • Consider supplements like quercetin and DAO enzyme, which help reduce histamine levels.
  • Adopt a low-histamine diet by avoiding foods high in histamine.
  • Ensure gut health to improve DAO production.
  • Manage stress, as it can exacerbate histamine release.
