Histamine is an important mediator of allergic diseases such as hay
fever and bronchial asthma, food allergies, urticaria, and drug
hypersensitivity. Knowledge of histamine as a cause of numerous
non-allergic symptoms and signs is, however, limited. In fact,
histamine intolerance can be responsible for conditions as diverse
as seasickness, headaches and migraine, tachycardia, gastric
disorders, diarrhea, intolerance to contrast media, parodontosis,
period pains, nausea and vomiting in pregnancy, atopic dermatitis,
and osteoporosis. This book offers wide-ranging coverage of
histamine intolerance. There is extensive background discussion of
the origin of histamine, its content in food and alcoholic
beverages, and intolerance to red wine. Diagnosis of histamine
intolerance is explained, and the various symptoms of histamine
intolerance are clearly described. Subsequent chapters cover the
conditions mentioned above and also consider the relation of
histamine to vitamin B6 and the specific immunotherapy of
allergies. This book will prove of value in clinical practice by
facilitating differential diagnosis, which is by no means
straightforward given the multiplicity of symptoms of histamine
intolerance, and by assisting in the selection of therapeutic
measures.
