I'm histamine intolerant. I'm trying to find a list of foods I CAN eat. There are only "to avoid"-lists on google. What are some of the best paleo foods I CAN eat?

I'm also intolerant. So, what do I eat? Lot's of meat, beef and lamb prefered. Fresh of course, nothing processed. Fat: Ghee, olive oil, coconut oil. Veggies: All sorts of squash, cabbage (except brussels sprouts and turnip), beets, roots, green beans, onions, garlic. I'm not that much into fruits. Turmeric is a very good spice, because it is a histamine blocker. Sometimes I eat fish (mostly salmon), but one really has to be careful, because fish degrades that quick and the histamine level in fish can become really high.

I have histamine intolerance & I still eat the no-no foods on the list, but less often & always take 1000-2000 mg of Vitamin C (natural anti-histamine) afterwards.

It's also worth experimenting because I have found that not all foods on the list are a problem for me--though it may be a matter of quantity. YMMV!

Dragonfly - old thread, I know! I was looking up some info on histamine intolerance after reading this post by Kresser: chriskresser.com/…. Do you have any good resources you have found on this? Mainly an exhaustive list of foods, which ones are high offenders, borderline, etc. Personal experience. I've been doing SIBO for a year, which has helped, but it's not addressing all the issues (like low blood pressure and temporary loss of consciousness!). I am seeing a holistic practitioner, but he's not a whole lot of help... – RK Mar 25 at 13:02

Yikes! My symptoms are a walk int he park compared to yours... There was a link someone shared on one of my questions (afraid that's all I have except for the Google search results histamino.wordpress.com/page/2 – Dragonfly Mar 25 at 15:14

And thanks for the reminder to do more reading on the topic! :) – Dragonfly Mar 25 at 15:17
