My son has suffered from asthma and eczema for years. A year ago he started a limited food protocol. Eliminated all gluten, dairy, soy, and night shades. His asthma is virtually non existent as is the eczema. This strateGene is of interest to me. I will share it with him.
This is changing my life! I’ve understood more about my symptoms in a day than I’ve uncovered in 2 years, almost entirely devoted to my own Healing. THANK YOU FOR YOUR DEVOTION TO YOUR RESEARCH! 🙏❤️
This is great! I think I have finally discovered that my wicked monthly migraines are triggered by a histamine intolerance, which seems to be triggered by my fluctuating hormones. I started taking the histamine block around my cycle, along with increasing my magnesium and so far, no migraine. It's been almost two months. 🤞This is a game changer for me!! Thank you for all you do!
Also, I tried the carnivore diet. It was amazing for healing my gut and dealing with my autoimmune joint issues, but my histamine intolerance went through the roof!
I think that MTHFR plays a big role in the histamine overload that I'm experiencing. I have the A1298C variant as well as histamine intolerance (per blood work).
Thank you! Just started learning about histamine intolerance. I was told I had Lyme, mold and coinfections. I have been really struggling and been to many physicians. Always choosing holistic paths. I even went got my FNTP and Herbal certs just so I can learn to take care of myself. Then MCAS came up and I had to learn more. Your research and content have helped and saved so many of us! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve recently became histamine intolerant after contracting COVID-19, my DO doctor believes I had an underlying issue with MCAS, but I have greatly been struggling to rebalance this. I have followed you for quite sometime now, after my son had a vaccine-injury.
about the protein bit, you need to consider where protein comes from. meat protein is high in methionine which makes SAMe, which as you show, is helping clear out histamine. if her methylation cycle is also sluggish that is even more essential.
I have spent so much money on nutrition genome and I don’t have all the great information that is on your report. I have glioblastoma and a lot of other health challenges for the past three years. Thanks for the information.
@@DrBenLynch Thanks so much. I have been doing other work, but not seeing the changes I expected. Just watching a few of your videos, I can see that other people teaching genetics are missing some key points.
Once again YOU ARE INCREDIBLE WITH ANOTHER INCREDIBLE VIDEO!!! WOW!! You are such an amazing person for sharing all of your knowledge!!! Thank you so very much Ben!!!🥳❤️🙌🏻
Love this! Thank you so much for “breaking it down” (pun intended) for those of us who really want to dive in and understand this. Your work is so appreciated.
This is phenomenal information! My 7yo is having hives. Blessed to have a very skilled Naturopath in Bellingham, plus a top notch dietician from Louisiana doing telemed! She had 23and me as a baby, but excited to get your test her her and me!
Great video! I see that the Strategene DNA Kit has been discontinued. Any chance of that coming back in the near future? I uploaded my 23andMe raw data into the Strategene reader, but the info I got back on my Histamine pathway is limited and would love more info!
I have life time running nose, constipation, motion sickness. DAO does not show up in my 23&Me report. Let me try your histamine blocker. Thanks for all education again!
Just ordered the probiotics from you for sensitive/Histamine issues. Very excited. I used to take a decent brand in the evening and get itchy with an hour. Did not know that was the final issue for the day. Love my bifido strains!
The wrong probiotics are thee worst. Once I had some milk kefer thinking that it was so healthy to drink and I had a horrible episode. Super itchy and out of it
nx for such an incredible info, but there are some mistakes under my point of view, when you said that the oxydized fatty acids must be avoided (to avoid the imidazole acetylaldehyde issue) and cook with avocado moil or ghee... for a person who has real histamine intolerance its an impossible thing to do...ghee is animal with bif histamine content due to that, and avocado is an histamine bomb! maybe im losing something? its possible that avocado oil dont have high histamien content? maybe its only in the other parts of the fruit? and ghee? the same? maybe in the fats/oils the hiustamine is nor present? PLEASE help me with that question. im strugglin with SEVERE histamine intolerance for years, and were close to go to hospital couple time for deep nutrition problems due to each day more and more restriction in diet to be able to have something called !live" , and you point about GETTING WORSE AFTER TAKE DAO, susrprised me a lot!! its an interesting thing i will try,,,, untill now i thought it worsened /deep react after taking DAO because it comes form pork kidney and then high histamine contente per se, but.. sounds weird isnt? now you gave me a light on it... it sounds very logic, but about that: zinc and niacine as cofactor to help ALDH family works fine...but...DAO activity dpends on cupper to works correctly, and cupper is antagonist to zinc and viceversa... so... what to do here? and niacin would cut the methylation proccess...which is very confuse to me, since methylation is a big key to histamine issues (hnmt and phase 2 detox in liver)...so..what to do here? sorry for that big text... i would love to get your help @DR Ben Lynch
Thank you Ben! Was always bummed I could only get you on Facebook or podcasts. I had 2 years free from Facebook and you were 1 of 2 reasons (other was to look up someone) I went on every once in a while. People need more of you in their life! Have your book and will get strategene for my son and I when I can financially. Been planning for couple years. Im binge watching all your TH-cam videos now.
Great information. I have histamine intollerences and this video has helped. Thanks. Glad you are doing these video's. I live in Australia, but your testing is only for USA. Do you have any recommendations as I would love to do this testing though to get the big picture. I know I have MTHFR. Reading your book, which is excellent, shows I have those genes dirty too. I love information so that it will help me understand and work towards feeling better. Thanks.
Thanks for doing what you do! How do I access training for health care providers? I would love to go through some kind of training for my patients and my family.
Hi, I'm new to you and new to strategene. I went to that website and asked this question: I already have my 23&me raw data and my SNP variant report from MTHFRSupport. How do I use Strategene with those reports? I'm new to all this and desperately need to educate myself but don't have a science background so I'm lost in that world but willing to learn cause I'm really sick of being sick.
Thank you for the great video! Looking forward to more videos like this! You mentioned the DAO gene can be found in the placenta leading to pregnancy complications. Is this why severe nausea/vomiting (HG) can occur during pregnancy even though I don’t have obvious histamine intolerance symptoms outside of pregnancy (besides cat allergies)? Do you have more resources on histamine intolerance during pregnancy? Searching for answers before a future pregnancy. 🙂
A 'complicated' gene means that the SNPs effects are multifactorial. Read each section for each SNP to learn how the SNP impacts the gene's function. A 'slow' DAO gene means that it is not functioning at full speed thereby increasing susceptiblity to histamine intolerance.
My HI is the worst when I am estrogen dominant. I have a 2(OH):16a(OH)-E1 METABOLITE RATIO of only 0.4. What do I need to be looking at to support my body to fix this?
yep. as you can see, estrogen stimulates histamine release. need to reduce estrogen levels. Consider DIM + I3C supplementation and Calcium-D-Glucarate.
I suffer with my sinuses and reactions to certain things, I can't use antihistamines drugs or sinus allergy meds, I can't eat cheese, flour, citrus, coconut without some awful reactions, I've had quadruple bypass surgery six years ago so I have to be careful,
Great video! After my submission is received, what is the approx turnaround time for Core report? Will specific vitamin/mineral or food avoidance suggestions accompany the report ie 25 or 50 mg 1-2x/day of 'X' based on severity of deficiency/excess? Is body weight or gender a factor? TIA
Dr. Lynch, I paid a lot of money for genetic testing because MTHFR is in my family, but I’m so disappointed as all I got was a report with no explanations, can you refer me to someone, also will this test show up EHLERS DANLO SYNDROME, Everyone in my family has some problems with this syndrome, my nephews baby was born with club feet, my daughter has all the markers of joint instability thank you for sharing,
Dr Ben, I am reading your book, I know I have a copper shortage. How can I raise it if the list of copper products contains either histamine-containing foods or liberators (beef liver, sunflower seeds, lentils, almonds, coffee syrup, asparagus, turnip leaves.). I can buy asparagus from the garden without chemicals only in summer. As for the drugs, I have an intolerance to almost all chemistry. What other options could there be? I don't understand how to get out of this
I learned about Copper deficiency and bought a pure Copper water container I keep by my bed each night. Let water sit in it couple of hours than drink. Zero colds, flu or Covid for me yet all winter long. I think it helped my immunity.
May I ask how to discuss with my PA, that I don’t want to take Metformin, which I’ve taken before and it has caused problems with my cholesterol and other things. I have insulin resistance, which I am told is from when I had polycystic ovary disease , and later got a hysterectomy. A nurse I have when I have pain management procedures, just told me I would be better off taking insulin.. and getting my lap band filled. I lost 150 lbs in 2005, and was at 300lbs. I went off metformin after about a month after the lap band surgery. Do you think I would be better off taking insulin and after getting my band filled once again and lose weight, I can go off the insulin? She is the one who sent this video for me.She wrote down Mutation.. then MTHFR & c677T. I have just been on anesthesia from my procedure and want to tell my PA I’m not comfortable with taking metformin, plus, I was given Rybelsus, which has a lot of possible side effects. What would you recommend , because I don’t fully understand this video? Thanks so much!! Spring B.

Dr Ben, my 80 year old mother has had a cough that sounds like a smokers cough even though she has never smoked. She also has itchy skin, sensitive sense of smell, inflammation issues. She has seen SO many doctors and specialist for her cough and they all offer her their theories and suggest a medication but nothing has helped her at all! What is the likelihood that this could be a histamine issue? I would love to know what your opinion is! Thank you in advance, Tammy
My personal experience points to bronchial phlegm being triggered by foods high in salicylates and improving detox pathways and reducing salicylates has helped
So, we have to avoid our food intolerances... but what if we are showing intolerance to almost all foods. Do we heal gut and then try to figure out true food intolerances at that point?
So with many food intolerances there’s not many safe probiotics to take. I found one but not sure it can raise histamine levels and very expensive!! So what can we actually ingest occasionally??? ( sinus and ear congestion/ringing)
I am so interested to hear more on how histamines affects the uterus. I had zero allergies or CIU symptoms until I gave birth to my son. Now him and I both struggle with hives and gut issues. The doctors have no answers for us but to take antihistamine and maybe consider the monthly shot to control flares.
@@22kdawn Yes a vaccine. Oddly enough a nurse came in at 3am and said she needed to give me a DTAP because my tetanus wasn’t up to date. I remember being annoyed that they would give me a shot at 3 am. It was the day before I was suppose to go home with baby.
Terribly interesting! I definitely need to upgrade my StrateGene from the original version (which has been helpful in its own right)! I have seen elsewhere that B6 is required for DAO to function. Is that not true, or is that yet to be validated by StrateGene? Separately, I have discovered too MUCH B6 can actually cause deficiency. This may be a BIG factor for some as what matters is how much "active" P5P is available versus how much Pyridoxine (anti-B6) is floating around. Also, aspirin is noted in slowing down ALDH. People with salicylate processing issues (separate pathways of UGT, etc.) can easily accumulate plant-based salicylates and dirty that gene. This also correlates to B6 status as recycling Glycine is essential in glycinating salicylates.
great point on the salicylates. will need to look into that - thank you! I've noticed PROFOUND improvement supplementing with calcium-D-glucarate for my glucoronidation pathway. For B6 as a cofactor for DAO - it's not stated as a cofactor on genecards.org but I've seen that elsewhere as well.
I've wondered if my Calcium D-Glucarate helped in salicylate clearing in my past. I used to take it for some time at night to aid with Estrogen clearance. I do believe I have an issue in clearing salicylates. I haven't done so in over a year, but a few glasses of red wine (or Beer/IPAs), and my breath rate goes up 1-2 breaths/min + HR goes up at least 10 points, and HRV plummets. Since then, similarly with too much broccoli/cauliflower or nuts like pistachios. Might have to look into it again!
My son has suffered from asthma and eczema for years. A year ago he started a limited food protocol. Eliminated all gluten, dairy, soy, and night shades. His asthma is virtually non existent as is the eczema. This strateGene is of interest to me. I will share it with him.

@@Masqueesha eliminating gluten completely in my diet got rid of severe seasonal allergies.
Do you suffer from gastrointestinal problems such as excessive bloating after eating, by any chance?
I think that MTHFR plays a big role in the histamine overload that I'm experiencing. I have the A1298C variant as well as histamine intolerance (per blood work).
