In a recent post on histamine intolerance I asked why you think you suffer from it? It's had loads of great comments - so thank you very much, and a lot of people mentioned stress.

So, how do you de-stress? I love reading, and sometimes surprising quotes pop out in unexpected places.

This one I highlighted after reading the fiction book Imperium by Robert Harris.

‘The art of life is to deal with problems as they arise, rather than destroy one’s spirit by worrying about them too far in advance.’

Especially relevant when it comes to histamine intolerance I think.⁣ Personally I find when I manage my stress levels better, my histamine levels come down significantly, as do my HRV and heart rate stats on the Oura Ring.

Stress and histamine are often linked, so don’t forget to focus on this area as well as diet, supplements and so on.
