What is the purpose of each ingredient in Histamine Nutrients?Updated a month ago

 

Ingredient 

Purpose

Vitamin C (as ascorbic acid)

Supports healthy DAO production, normal histamine breakdown, and normal inflammatory processes.†

Thiamine (as thiamine hydrochloride)

Often is depleted in presence of high aldehyde and other histamine byproducts.† 

Niacin

Plays a role in increasing the activity of the ALDH enzyme family, to support the normal regulation of acetaldehyde concentrations.†

Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxal 5'-phosphate)

Works with DAO to help support the normal breakdown of histamine.† 

Pantothenic Acid (as d-calcium pantothenate)

Cofactor for the NAT2 enzyme which metabolizes histamine to acetylhistamine.†

Magnesium (as DiMagnesium Malate§)

Supports normal glutamate response from ammonia release. Ammonia is released from histamine metabolism.†

Zinc (as zinc gluconate)

Cofactor for the ALDH enzyme family.†

Copper (as copper gluconate)

Cofactor for the DAO enzyme.† 

Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid

Supports normal ammonia breakdown, which is created from histamine metabolism.†

SAMe (as disulfate ptoluensulfonate)

Cofactor for the HNMT enzyme which is a major enzyme in histamine breakdown.†

PQQ (as LifePQQTM pyrroloquinoline quinone disodium salt)

Supports healthy oxidative stress response.†

DAO2TM porcine kidney extract

The enzyme that supports healthy breakdown of histamine from food.†

  • DAOgest® (Diamine oxidase)

    This patented enzyme, derived from porcine (pork) kidney extract, supports the healthy breakdown of histamine in many areas of your body —especially the small intestine, colon, placenta, kidney, appendix, testis, and prostate.

  • Zinc

    Supports the healthy and normal functioning of cells responsible for immune response, inflammatory signaling, and oxidative stress. Aids in cortisol regulation and utilization of B vitamins.

  • Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)

    B vitamin recycles damaged and used-up glutathione by supporting your glutathione reductase (GSR) enzyme.

  • Copper

    Supports healthy blood cells and cellular function

  • S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe)

    Your body's main methyl donor. Supports a healthy mood, joint comfort, liver health, healthy histamine metabolism, and normal genetic expression.

  • Alpha Keto-Glutarate

    Supports the normal breakdown of ammonia, a toxic byproduct of histamine metabolism

  • L-carnitine, alpha-lipoic acid, CoQ10, flavonoids, PQQ

    A powerful blend of antioxidant-like nutrients that support healthy energy production, the aging process and cognition.

  • Vitamin C

    Supports immune system function, antioxidant and enzyme activity, histamine metabolism via DAO production, collagen production, mast cell stability and respiratory health.

  • Vitamin B6 (P-5-P)

    This active form of vitamin B6 is involved in over 140 different enzymatic reactions in the body. It supports healthy ammonia levels, absorption of magnesium into red blood cells, neurological function, serotonin synthesis and hormone metabolism, as well as homocysteine and glutathione formation.
