What causes excess histamine release?
Excess histamine is caused by different things in different people. Sometimes it is easy to pinpoint the cause and many times it is almost impossible such as in hives (urticaria). House dust mite, pollen, traffic pollution, wheat, dairy products, heat or perfumes can all cause histamine release. This is not an exhaustive list and there are many other things that can cause your body to release extra histamine. The result (which you can see or feel) can be anything from sneezing, runny nose, red eyes to a skin outbreak. A toxic body is much more likely to be prone to excess histamine release than a healthy non toxic one. For example, if you eat too much rubbish (cakes, cookies, sweets, artificial foods, fatty foods, alcohol) or too much red meat (as an example) your body will be busy trying to digest and detoxify, thereby exhausting its resources and not being able to deal with other things (pollen for example). Toxicity exhausts the adrenals and your adrenals are one of the main glands
