Many confusing, chronic health issues have a common and little-known link. Histamine intolerance is a crucial piece of the puzzle in understanding and addressing numerous mystery illnesses. Seemingly random food sensitivities, headaches, and inflammation are just a few of the presentations of this surprisingly common condition. 

In my practice I have had a lot of success alleviating these issues using simple, effective tools. Overcoming the symptoms of histamine intolerance doesn’t have to involve a highly restrictive diet. This class will give you an understanding of what happens when your body can’t break down histamine, common symptoms, and why those symptoms can seem so unpredictable. We will clarify how the histamine process in this context differs from that of the allergic process.

I’m excited to share with you the clear botanical strategies for effectively managing these varied complaints. Join me to skill-up on this little understood and useful topic.
