Why is this test useful for me?
- Histamine is a molecule that is metabolized in the intestine, and is eliminated with the help of the enzyme DAO.
- Histamine is present in our body and also in many foods. A deficiency of the DAO enzyme means that our body does not process histamine well, and that causes a food migraine.
- This test is recommended for people who suffer from migraines frequently, and have not found a specific cause.
- Some processed foods that may contain histamine are: sausages (raw or cured), alcoholic beverages, fermented vegetables, canned oily fish and mature cheeses.
- Some examples of natural foods that are high in histamine: pasteurized milk, eggplant, apricot, spinach, swiss chard, and more.
- The patient must fast for at least 6 hours prior to taking the sample.
