Can vitamin B6 help with histamine intolerance?

Can vitamin B6 help with histamine intolerance? 🤔

This from the excellent selfhacked.com 👌

Even though B6 helps form histamine, it’s also important for normal functioning of diamine oxidase (DAO), the enzyme which breaks down histamine.

Intake of B6 could help lower histamine levels and benefit some histamine intolerant patients who experience headaches from histamine-rich foods and drinks. 🍹

I am personally finding B6 in the bioactive form of Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate (P-5-P) is helping at the moment hence the post. 👌

I’m cautiously reintroducing foods and it’s going well.
