What if your toughest histamine symptoms aren’t just about what’s on your plate, but what’s happening inside your cells? We dig into the surprising link between mitochondrial function and histamine intolerance, showing how your body’s energy system shapes reactions like headaches, flushing, itching, and brain fog—even when your diet looks dialed in.

I break down how DAO and HNMT—the enzymes that clear histamine in the gut and inside cells—depend on energy, nutrients, and antioxidant balance to work well. You’ll learn why sluggish mitochondria and rising oxidative stress can slow these enzymes and create a feedback loop of fatigue, sensitivity, and inflammation. From there, we map a practical plan: histamine-friendly, colorful foods for antioxidant support; quality proteins and healthy fats for cellular repair; gentle movement to spark mitochondrial biogenesis; and sleep routines that restore nightly recovery. We also tackle chronic stress with extended exhale breathing and mindfulness, plus simple ways to cut everyday toxins like synthetic fragrances and plastics.

If symptoms continue despite good habits, I outline when to work with a functional medicine practitioner and what targeted testing can reveal about mitochondrial function, oxidative stress markers, and enzyme activity. The goal isn’t lifelong restriction—it’s a stronger system that handles triggers with more ease. By caring for your mitochondria, you support energy, mood, resilience, and your capacity to enjoy food without fear.

You’ll hear a short message about Stop the Chaos, a 7-day private support experience created for women who describe histamine intolerance as chaotic and unpredictable. This program helps you understand what’s driving your symptoms and feel more grounded in your day-to-day life.
