Everyone is different.
I eat Brazil nuts, black olives, boiled chicken thigh, and green beans with butter for breakfast. I cannot tolerate chia. I have had feelings of hypoglycemia since adolescence and I recently read that histamines cause cytokines to affect blood sugar. I wish I would have known this 45 years ago. I have given up career goals due to feeling hypoglycemic and now I'm too old. I don't feel as hypoglycemic after following a low carb and low histamine diet. Thank God I am able to work from home. Out of desperation I asked an AI because I was feeling a yucky high dizzy buzz feeling after eating chicken and it suggested I eat boiled chicken and that was good advice. The National Institute of Health has an article about cytokines and blood sugar. Why didn't any doctors tell me any of this over the decades that I've been asking for help?
It's amazing how everyone's list of foods that will serve them well will be a bit different. Glad to hear you're figuring some things out! And heck yeaaaa the blood sugar connection is a potential player for many of us. Onwards and upwards!
I've been eating chia, hemp, tigger nuts and blueberrries for the past 2 days and it's the first time since I can remember that I didn't feel sleepy after eating! I was eating oats or buckwheat and both are a hard no for me now that I know what it feels like! You guys are the best!
Glad to hear you're making some good discoveries for yourself!
@@histaminehavenhey can I get a low histamine diet list, doctor once told me my histamine is very high, I'm waiting on some results, most things I'm eating right now is causing me to be sleepy pr fatigue etc
Question: isn't the GAP protocol all histamine? Slow cooking ? I am returning to slow cooking as winter approaches but not to make bone broth. Just to make a lot of stews.
The GAPS protocol, depending on how you approach it, can certainly be high histamine. And slow cooking increases histamine development, yes. But there are ways around it, and some simple swaps you can make to reduce the histamine content. Our protocol works through all of this! It's all outlined in our book. Let me know if you would like some info on where to find it!
Appreciate your effort but the trouble with histamine diets is we all have very different triggers. About 1/4 of your shopping list is off for me - all of the starches & nuts, the dairy... & palm oil??? Surely not. To people struggling to find their triggers this isn't really that helpful unless you have your antihistamines handy.
We don't have dairy or palm oil in our list - not sure where you found that. We do reintroduce dairy in later stages, as our protocol involves a process of self discovery (since we recognize how unique each person is - as you mention). Our recipes also have variations if you don't tolerate nuts. If you aren't tolerating the starches we use (cassava, tapioca, sweet potato, plantain) then there might be more going on than just histamine or mast cell issues - something you might want to explore further.
@@histaminehaven Thank you for your kind answer. Sorry if my tone was all wrong. I'm seriously struggling & have just found out I have histamine intolerance after years of restrictive sibo diets that failed. I have autoimmune disease so yes, there's a lot going on. :0(
@@criticalmass5402 Sorry for your struggles. Health journey's are certainly a bit of a process. We have tried to create resources that allow for as much customization as needed, so hopefully you find something in our resources or book to help you on that journey. Our cookbook have variations for an autoimmune protocol, so if you are combining a histamine and autoimmune approach, we hope the recipes are what you are looking for. You can find the book at www.histaminehaven.com/book.
@@histaminehaven Thanks again, I'll have a look at your resources & best regards.
I wish I could have these foods :( starches trigger the skin issue . I deal with seb derm
Hi Lisa - It's hard to offer breakfast ideas that will fit the bill for EVERYONE. If these 3 don't fit, then consider having a bowl of soup you know you can tolerate for breakfast. One of us here does that just about 4 or 5 mornings every week! Straight out of the freezer, just warmed in a pan. What is a typical breakfast for you, and do you find it works? (also - if starches trigger things for you, it's an invitation to dive a bit deeper to find out what else is contributing to things. Quite potentially some blood sugar balancing / liver / pancreas stuff in a system that is stressed...)
@@histaminehaven could you recommend a safe, probiotic?
High oxolates &histamine diet please☀️☀️☀️☀️🍀🍀🍀🍀☘☘☘☘☘🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Hi Julia! Did you know we have a cookbook? We have variations to keep things low oxalate in all of our recipes in the cookbook. Here's the link to check it out: www.histaminehaven.com/book (+ thanks for asking!)
OAT is great for histamine intolerance. You are suggesting replacing it!!!???? Nooo
Oats are high in lectins. Lectins can trigger mast cells to release mediators as well as damage the gut lining leading to lower DAO levels. Going low histamine isn't always enough.
@@histaminehaven even gluten free oats?
@@equidregykfr3523 Yes. Oats can still contribute to leaky gut and reduced DAO.
Not much help 😢
Have you found anything that helps for you, Betty? I just answered Lululove below with an invitation to dive a bit deeper when it seems some of those foods we talk about here may not work for you... We'd love to know what you work with for breakfast. Personally here, Tracey relies on frozen soups from the freezer that she has frozen in individual sized containers, and me (Luka) i have worked hard to tolerate more and more foods, and now my breakfasts are no longer low histamine. (Eggs + veggies most days!)
Sweet potatoes..loaded with oxalates…..nuts and seeds, wrecks our gut. Horrible advice.
They sure are! Sweet potatoes are indeed loaded with oxalates, but they are low histamine and they are not necessarily a problem for everyone. The way we propose in the cookbook is to cook them under high pressure, which reduces the oxalates. And in those early stages, sometimes it's tricky to find something. In Stage 2 of our protocol, now we invite you to figure out which other compounds are troubling to you, and then we offer more alternatives. As for nuts and seeds, we walk you through how to reduce some of the irritating compounds in them so that they end up being less of a trigger to your mast cells. (It's the lectins in them that trigger). So we offer solutions on how to make these easier on your digestive system, while keeping them all low histamine. In some people, going for eggs, or breakfast sausages or bacon are all higher histamine things that may trigger their own personal symptoms. So it's always going to be a question of figuring out what works for you specifically. And then doing some gut repair so that your tolerance to foods can improve so you can have more variety, and then those oxalates / lectins / enzyme inhibitors are not a problem for you. If you're reacting to food compounds, now the question is how is your gut health. And so so so often, people who have histamine issues AND there is a mast cell piece involved now seem to react to all the foods. We are not about creating fear for people, we are about building a safe haven. Have you found something that works for you? Let's keep this conversation going! It's such an important one to have!!!

Can you discus safe probiotics? Is smidge safe ? Also a strain called lactobacillus paracasei st11 for skin issues ( I’ve been dealing with ) since 2020 , can’t find much data on it atm
@@lisagardner4814 Hi Lisa! We have probiotics we share in our online community. Smidge may work for some, the strains in it are all low histamine. Sometimes you can't start with probiotics when the microbiome is a contributing factor to your histamine issues. It's a question of trying, and seeing how you tolerate, while also building a wider variety of foods you consume in order to enhance a wider variety of strains of bacteria in the microbiome. This question of yours makes us think we need to put a class together. It's never quite straight forward when it has histamine in the question, is it...
Just don’t eat a damn thing.
It does feel like that sometimes, doesn't it.
