Hey @nikolovaart ,

I don’t think that is a bad brand. But if histamine buildup is involved, you might experience worsening of your allergy symptoms. Perhaps you could share the symptoms you are experiencing and if you feel like it… you can share lab results here as well. We could give you more personalized advice that way.

Hey @nikolovaart ,

With allergies, the immune system often reacts by releasing inflammatory chemicals like histamine. When the body deals with a histamine overload, symptoms can appear everywhere in the body – including in the gut.
