Episode Description
Fermented foods. Leftovers. Avocado. Kombucha. Spinach. All things the wellness world worships — and all things that could be absolutely wrecking you if histamine intolerance is your thing. Danna's been dropping the H-word in episodes for years and Megan finally made her explain herself. Consider this your 10-minute crash course.
What You'll Learn:
- What histamine intolerance actually is (spoiler: it's a bucket, not a blood test)
- The surprisingly wide range of symptoms — from migraines and skin flushing to period pain and brain fog
- Which "healthy" foods are secretly high histamine (Popeye was not okay)
- Yes, you can test for it in Switzerland — and yes, insurance covers it
- Why allergy season and histamine intolerance are more connected than you think
- How to try a low-histamine approach at home without losing your mind
Also: Megan coined "eye juice and flower sperm." We're putting it on a t-shirt.
