Can I take Liquid Omega 3 for histamine intolerance?Updated 4 months ago
The product Liquid Omega 3, which contains cod liver oil and essential oils from lemon and blood orange, should be used with caution in cases of histamine intolerance due to the presence of citrus ingredients. Citrus fruits may trigger histamine release from mast cells, potentially worsening HIT symptoms such as: headaches, skin reactions (rash, itching), digestive issues, fatigue, or heart palpitations.
Citrus fruits contain substances that may slow down histamine breakdown (e.g., by inhibiting the DAO enzyme) or promote histamine release.
