Histomin is actually a normal, healthy part of our body. But when you get things out of balance it can cause digestive symptoms. You have the ability to heal and improve this issue just like with fod maps. Wich hadros around his to mean intolerance, which is not something you've talked about yet. Can we explain what that is, and is there anything you can do about it? There's no blood test to prove that someone has histemine intolerance. The only way to reliably show this is to reduce your histemine intake through your diet,. Now, how do we separate histomin and tolerance from a food alurgy? Well, going back to food alarg

1 in 5 people suffer from food intolerances, a figure that’s growing each year. As a result, people are eating increasingly restricted diets, removing dairy, gluten and many other foods from their plates. Unfortunately, they end up eating highly processed foods that damage their gut microbiome and lead to long-term health problems. Even with food restrictions, many people see limited improvements in their symptoms.

The whole topic of intolerance is full of pseudoscience, dubious blood tests, and miracle cures.

However, in the last few years, we have seen a revolution in our understanding, with gut bacteria now the stars of the show. This new understanding has profound implications for how we should treat our food intolerances.

Today we’ll focus on what the latest science says. Jonathan is joined by Will Bulsiewicz, board-certified gastroenterologist, New York Times best-selling author and ZOE's science board member, whose latest book is all about food intolerance.
