248: Is Eczema Related To Histamine Intolerance?

If you’ve heard or read that eczema is a “histamine intolerance” problem, I’ve got news for you…

That’s actually not always true.

In fact, itchy skin doesn’t mean you have histamine intolerance either.

This might fly in the face of what you’ve come to believe about what your “root causes” are, but it’s really important.

It can help you if you find that antihistamines aren’t really working!

OR if you’ve been doing a low histamine diet without noticing much improvement.

So let’s talk about how atopic dermatitis is (or is not) connected to histamine overload while answering a listener’s question on how certain foods (like berries) could be good or bad for rashes!

In this episode:

• Are berries high in histamine (and a problem for eczema)?
• Eczema + Histamine Intolerance – Are they connected?
• FODMAP foods + histamine issues
• Percentage of eczema cases that are histamine driven (in my practice)

Quotes:

Blueberries are actually low in histamine while strawberries are high in histamine.

It’s erroneous to assume that eczema automatically means you have a histamine problem because that’s simply not true.
