I would like to know if anybody was able to treat their histamine intolerance with dry fasting? Been eating a low histamine diet which seems to help with my eczema, chronic tiredness, brain fog and so on. Been doing a few 24´s, 48´s and two 72´s, but not as regularly as i would like to do. Not sure if dry fasting isn´t a double edge sword, because bodily stress is known to increase histamine and amplify the symptoms. I was thinking about doing daily intermittent dry fasting 20/4 style coupled with a low histamine diet to heal my gut, any thoughts about that?
Best regards.
TL,DR: yes, but other factors also at play.
Fasting in general coupled with low histamine diet, low carb, staying hydrated by adding salt to my water and drinking that more than other drinks have all helped my allergies / medical conditions.I can’t say for sure which element is the true “active ingredient”, but over the past few years I have had about 2 or 3yrs with very minimal hayfever and eczema, compared to previous yrs where I would have sleepless nights and spend most of my time itching and sneezing if I’m not hermetically sealed away in my bedroom.
Hydrating well, then doing a dry fast helps clear your system quickly if you’ve breached your histamine load.
I think in general, if you want to see improvements in anything, everything else needs to come together correctly. You can’t half ass it.
I can’t drink lots of salted water but then allow myself the “treat” of 4 coffees or an ice cream on top. I gotta be good across the board. Good luck!
