Why do we have LOW . . . DAO?

So, today's question is this . . . if the body makes the digestive enzyme called DAO for optimal health . . . to control our "histamine" production . . .
Meaning . . . ridding the body of "excess" histamine . . .
How do we become "deficient" in this enzyme in the first place???
Well . . . there are several factors that can contribute to its diminishing levels like . . .
Genetic mutations
Alcohol use
Certain medications
SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth)
And believe it or not . . .
Eating large amounts of "histamine-containing" foods like dairy product such as . . .
Cheese
Yogurt
Sour cream
Buttermilk
and Kefri
Or even fermented vegetables like . . .
Sauerkraut
Kimchi
Pickles or pickled veggies
And then there's "cured" or "fermented" meats like . . .
Sausages
Salami
and fermented ham
Consuming any or all of these elements . . . is a big factor to "low" DAO levels in our digestion process. . .
And LISTEN UP PEOPLE . . .
Those medications I mentioned above would be . . .
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs . . . NSAIDs like . . . ibuprofen and aspirin
Antidepressants
Antiarrhythmics
Proton pump inhibitors
Metoclopramide used for treating nausea and vomiting
Antibiotics like Clavulanic acid, Cefuroxime, Cefotiame, Pentamidine and Chloroquine
Bronchodilators like . . . Aminophylline and Theophylline
Diuretics like . . . Amiloride and Furosemide
ANTIHISTAMINE BLOCKERS like . . . Tagamet, Pepcid and Zantac
PEOPLE . . . ALL THOSE "ANTIHISTAMINES" YOU'RE TAKING TO HELP WITH YOUR ALLERGIES . . .
ARE ACTURALLY . . . "CAUSING" . . . YOUR ALLERGIES to CONTINUE or worsen over time!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And NOW Conventional medicine and the pharmaceutical industry has your body HOOKED and ADDICTED to their DRUGS!!!!!
And then add to that . . . drinking alcohol . . . and eating "high" amounts of Omega 6 fatty acid food from this Western diet we all love so much . . .
This NOW puts our body in a state of "inflammation DISTRESS" and "histamine INTOLERANCE"!!!
Which can NOW cause everything from allergies to migraines . . . to tinnitus . . . to skin reactions . . . AND digestive issues like IBS, bloating and flatulence.
SO . . . "STOP" . . . TAKING ALL THOSE DRUGS . . .PEOPLE!!!
The body DOESN'T need them . . .
What we DO NEED . . . is to just CORRECT . . . our . . . "INTERNAL DIALOGUE"
We NEED to start listening to what our body is saying . . . and what it NEEDS!
Not what the MONEY MAKERS of the world are saying!!!!
And tomorrow . . . we'll talk about another element that causes "low" levels of DAO in the body . . .
