Histamine Intolerance & the Menopause, with Dr Tina Peers. S6. Ep 14.

Do you experience a range of unexplained symptoms - eczema, skin rashes, fatigue, headaches, IBS, joint pain, poor sleep, or random allergic reactions with no clear trigger? If HRT isn’t helping - or even making things worse - or if your blood tests keep coming back normal but you still feel awful, histamine intolerance could be the missing piece of the puzzle. This little-understood condition is tricky to diagnose but more common than you might think. For some women in menopause, an underlying intolerance can escalate into a serious problem. To help unravel this mystery, I’m joined by a leading expert on histamine intolerance, Dr Tina Peers, who also happens to be a menopause specialist, so we’re in the best possible hands. Tina first became interested in histamine intolerance through her daughter’s long history of unexplained illness. She shares their journey to diagnosis and treatment, which ultimately led her to specialise in this field. Since then, she’s helped thousands of people through her clinic. In this episode, we cover: The essential role of histamine in the body and what happens when you can’t metabolise it properly The typical symptoms of histamine intolerance The difference between mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) and histamine intolerance Why these conditions are so difficult to diagnose The connection between oestrogen and histamine metabolism How an underlying intolerance can become severe during menopause Managing histamine intolerance - including the role of a low-histamine diet Tina is an absolute mine of information. If you’re struggling with a range of unexplained symptoms and finding it hard to get a diagnosis, this episode might just be your lightbulb moment.
