For Dana - High Histamines/Folic Acid

[Guest guest]

Hi Dana

I would first like to thank you for all your help - your web-ste and your

contrbutions to a number of groups I follow have been very useful to me.

I am writing to ask you about a post you wrote regarding high histamines and

folic acid, in which you state that kids with high histamines should avoid

supplementing folic acid. My daughter has high histamines, is an undermethylator

and we use DMG, B6, Mg, Ca, M, Zn and SAMe to help this. We can't use methionine

as my daughter has sulfur issues and methionine makes her very irritable.

Dana, when you say that histadelics should avoid folic acid, do you mean

follinic acid as well as 5MTHF? I've noticed my daughter does not do well with

folic acid, even when there is a little in a multi-vitamin, but she does O.K. on

follinic.

Thank you

Elena

I don't remember that message. Can you post a link to it?

You might try giving folic with carnitine and mB12. That combination was very

effective here.

Otherwise, stick with the folinic for now.

How can you tell if the person has high histamine? Why don't they do well with

folic acid and how would you know? What symptoms would be present?

 

I was giving my son powdered TMG w/folinic acid and MB12. Did not seem to be

doing well. When I went back to the liquid TMG and folic acid w/b12 he seems to

tolerate it better. What's the difference?  I thought that because he has

allergies, that meant he had high histamine. Am I completely wrong again?
