Histamine Intolerance is an intolerance of ingested histamine probably caused by dysfunction of the two metabolizing enzymes HNMT and DAO. The symptoms are similar to allegic reactions.

 |
In patients with histamine intolerance diarrhea manifests after the ingestion of greater amounts of biogenic amines. |
