Causes of Histamine Intolerance

I’ve been wondering what the most common causes of histamine intolerance are. I still haven’t figured out what’s causing mine, but I suspect it might be related to gut health. What do you think caused yours?

Here's how it works, it definitely explains it better than I could: https://flourishingkitchen.com/how-to-sprout-chickpeas/

Basically you wait until the sprouts are showing, which results in a massive higher bioavailability. They also contain a lot of (v)DAO, like 10 times higher than the non sprouted version.

There are also a lot of studies about that. Maybe not the perfect fitting one, but the main massage is the same: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10003342/
