Guest guest Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Foods that contain wheat or grains such as breads contain high quantities of histidine Maybe another reason why the GF diets helps so many? Mx My boy symptoms always fitted this. I'd had no idea about the interactions between two systems until we started ketitofen and i was sitting there thinking how he suddenly looked (in a very positive way) much less high-adrenaline driven, less impulsive, calmer, more constant energy, less physical fatigue etc. Then looked it up and of course ketitofen was known to influence HPA axis function and adrenaline levels… This is interesting as first hand experience from an adult http://www.goldbaum.net/balance/Whats_Histamine.html with a nice easy to follow/understand list on page 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Yes that may well be the case. Histidine also is constituent part of carnosine, could be why some don't tolerate it. Also why it sometimes helps seizures (by raising histamines? - antihistamines lower seizure threshold...) > > Foods that contain wheat or grains such as breads contain high quantities > of histidine > > Maybe another reason why the GF diets helps so many? > Mx > > > In a message dated 12/09/2011 13:19:52 GMT Daylight Time, > neno@... writes: > > > > > > > > > My boy symptoms always fitted this.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi Natasa, Thanks for this, it is all very interesting. About antihistamines lowering seizure threshold... would this be all antihistamines do you know? Would you possibly have any further info on this? In a recent thread about N's gastro prescribing anti-allergy and antihistamines, I mentioned that I'd come across some info on ketotifen with a " caution " in using with epilepsy (but it did not say why). So far N's done so well on the ceterizine in terms of reducing his coughing attacks during meals, but we have had some episodes of seizure increase every now and again.... but I had not thought about the antihistamine. We are due to see GP soon to try out sodium chromoglicate but not sure if this can be taken together with an antihistamine. emily x > > > > Foods that contain wheat or grains such as breads contain high > quantities > > of histidine > > > > Maybe another reason why the GF diets helps so many? > > Mx > > > > > > In a message dated 12/09/2011 13:19:52 GMT Daylight Time, > > neno@ writes: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > My boy symptoms always fitted this.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 I don't know. Tried to look it up but there don't seem to be a consensus or hard data on others like benadryl.
