Connection Between Histamine Intolerance & Parasites
Have you been suffering with hives or diagnosed with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria & have no idea what is causing it?
First of all- anytime you hear "Spontaneous" within the medical world, what that really means is they do not know the source- nor are they actually looking for a cause.
Nothing in the body is "Spontaneous" or coincidence, just like we do not have "accessory" organs like the appendix. This is ignorance at it's finest. For instance we now know how important the tonsils and appendix are in proper functioning of the immune system.
Instead they want to prescribe symptom management medications like anti-histamines, corticosteroids & leukotriene modifiers which only mask the actual problem, but the inflammation is still happening under the surface.
The connection between parasites & hives have actually been known for 65 years! The finding is important, because in a startling 90% of CSU cases, the search for underlying causes is unsuccessful. Other potential underlying causes include autoimmunity, food intolerance, & infections.
Specific parasites which can cause this include giardia & pinworms. This makes sense because parasites release ammonia, formaldehyde & HISTAMINE! We also know that bacterial infections, most notably Strep and other viruses of many types can trigger hives as well.
What else can cause hives?
-SIBO/SIFO
-Heavy metal toxicity
-Estrogen dominance
-Overburdened liver
-Mold toxicity
What would be the first few steps to reducing the symptoms of hives naturally?
1.) Elimination diet & Low Histamine Diet
2.) Facilitate lymphatic flow, open drainage pathways & regular pooping!
3. )Liver support including castor oil packs, bitter herbs
