Probiota HistaminX contains probiotic species and strains that have been specifically selected so as to exclude those that are known to increase histamine in the gut. The histamine-friendly species in this formula are delivered in a delayed-release capsule to ensure that the probiotics are delivered to the lower digestive tract intact.
Probiota HistaminX helps to support the body’s microbiome, digestion and may assist the healthy metabolism of ingested histamine.
Histamine – a part of our body’s biological defense system – is also found in many common foods. Fermented foods, fish, meat, cheese, vinegar, alcohol and some fruits and vegetables contain histamine.
In the right places and at the right levels, histamine is needed for a normal digestive process, inflammatory response, sleep-wake cycle and immunity. However, excessive histamine can cause symptoms such as rashes, itching, stuffy nose, swelling, headaches and digestive issues.
Histamine sensitivity ranges from person to person, and so some people may be more reactive to histamine in foods. It may seem like the only way to avoid the unpleasant side effects of histamine sensitivity is to eliminate foods altogether – but this can deprive us of balanced nutrients from a range of food sources, and makes it a challenge to enjoy meals. A functioning gut is a key factor in normal histamine metabolism and regulating histamine levels in the body.
Probiota HistaminX contains probiotic species that are considered “histamine-friendly” and excludes those known to produce histamine in the gut. Probiota HistaminX is a histamine-friendly probiotic blend that supports gut health and healthy histamine levels. It excludes probiotic strains known to produce histamine in the gut.
