Too much histamine in your body can contribute to symptoms such as flushing, runny nose, sleep difficulties, and/or headaches. These pesky symptoms can be the result of slowed enzyme activity in your histamine pathway. While DAO is the main enzyme responsible for breaking down food-derived histamine in your gut, other enzymes also play critical roles in metabolizing histamine produced in your body. To support your entire histamine pathway, Dr. Ben Lynch formulated one of the first and only products including the specific nutrients your histamine enzymes need to function.*
Histamine Block Plus is a comprehensive formula containing seven essential nutrient cofactors plus powerful antioxidants to support total histamine metabolism in each and every cell.*
Toxic byproducts are created when histamine is metabolized, such as ammonia, hydrogen peroxide, and acetaldehyde that can cause side effects and cell damage. Histamine Block also contains nutrient cofactors to support the normal breakdown of these toxic byproducts.*
Histamine Block Plus is a synergistic blend of nutrients designed to support the normal breakdown of histamine through multiple enzymatic processes, as well as neutralizing the toxic byproducts of histamine, using key nutrients:*
DAO — Contains 5,000 HDU of a patented DAO, a major enzyme responsible for breaking down histamine
Copper — A nutrient cofactor for the DAO enzyme
SAMe — A nutrient cofactor for the HNMT enzyme, another major enzyme involved in histamine breakdown
Alpha Keto-Glutarate — Supports the normal breakdown of ammonia, which is a toxic byproduct of histamine metabolism
Riboflavin — A nutrient cofactor for the MAOA and MAOB enzymes, which aid in neutralizing histamine toxic byproducts
Zinc and Vitamin B3 — Nutrient cofactors for the ALDH enzyme family, which help to break down acetaldehyde, a toxic byproduct of histamine metabolism
These key nutrients plus other powerful ingredients create the perfect support to your histamine intolerance protocol. Finally, you can experience a healthy response to histamine!*
Suggested Use
Take 2 capsules anytime of day or night with or without food or as directed by your healthcare professional. Taking 2 capsules before bed may support healthy onset of sleep.* To prevent flushing from niacin, take with food.

When taking Histamine Block Plus, consider these complementary products as recommended by Dr. Ben Lynch:
-
ProBiota HistaminX — A probiotic formulated to exclude strains known to produce histamine to support a balanced microflora and gut health response to histamine ingestion.*
-
HistaminX - A bioflavonoid-based formula that supports healthy histamine release and healthy immune system responses.* This makes a great pair to Histamine Block Plus!
-
Optimal Electrolyte — Electrolytes are key for hydration and for supporting the absorption of nutrients into cells, as well as supporting lost electrolytes that occur during cell division.*
-
Optimal PC — Contains phosphatidylcholine, a nutrient used to build cell walls and support normal histamine release and regulation.*
-
Optimal Liposomal Vitamin C — Vitamin C is needed for optimal histamine response and DAO production. This optimally-absorbed vitamin C formula is one of our best sellers.*
Niacin Flushing: This formula contains niacin. When taken on an empty stomach, a healthy response to niacin supplementation may include mild blushing, warming, or tingling of the skin. This can appear on the ears, face, arms, torso, or occasionally on the legs. Commonly referred to as a "niacin flush", this harmless response normally dissipates within an hour. It is related to niacin's role in vasodilation (widening of blood vessels). Vasodilation leads to better circulation, capillary flushing, and increased blood flow to the surface of the skin. To minimize or prevent flushing, consider taking this supplement with food or in divided doses.*
