Cholinergic Urticaria

Have These Histamine-Lowering Foods Helped Your Cholinergic Urticaria?

by

So I’ve had cholinergic urticaria for 10 years, and I’m constantly on the look out for anything that may help alleviate symptoms.

I’ve recently read a book which advocated a whole host of foods, herbs, and supplements to lower histamine levels, and I wonder if anyone on here has tried and had benefit (or not) from the following:

– black cumin seed (either food or supplement)
– bacopa monnieri supplement
– brown seaweed supplement
– chlorella supplement
– coleus forksholi supplement

Thanks,

John

  1. Histamine-lowering supplements have been discussed a few times on the forum before, and it seems that they don’t really help people with cholinergic urticaria. One person claimed DAO helped them, but they never responded to follow-up questions, and people suspected the post was spam.

  2. Black Seed Oil reduces histamine levels! It doesn’t necessarily cure or treat CU. I took it for a month and i saw no real change after a while. It acted as a antihistamine for few days and the effect started to go away after.

  3. It might help alleviate symptoms. Check for h Pylori and stop taking the antihistamines (if your doctor approves). I only got the heat hives after taking antihistamines. Seems like when body got hot it wanted to force it out. Eat a clean and easy to digest diet. I’m finally getting better.
