Description
Ultra DAO – Premium Support for Histamine Balance
Diamine Oxidase (DAO) is a crucial enzyme that helps break down histamine—a compound involved in immune responses, gut function, and neurotransmission. Elevated histamine levels can cause symptoms of histamine intolerance, such as headaches, digestive issues, skin reactions, and respiratory problems.
Why Ultra DAO?
Ultra DAO provides a high-quality dose of diamine oxidase (DAO), an enzyme essential for managing histamine levels in the digestive system. Additionally, it contains pine bark extract to help further reduce histamine release and support overall gut health. Taking Ultra DAO before meals that are high in histamine can help prevent digestive issues and support a balanced histamine response.*
How It Works:
- Histamine Breakdown: DAO breaks down ingested histamine from foods like aged cheeses, fermented products, and processed meats. Insufficient DAO production can lead to a buildup of histamine, causing intolerance symptoms.
- Location & Function: DAO is mainly produced in the kidneys, thymus, and small intestine. It works in the gut to neutralize excess histamine before it enters the bloodstream.
DAO Deficiency & Histamine Intolerance:
- Causes: DAO deficiency can arise from genetic factors, intestinal damage (e.g., from celiac disease or inflammatory bowel disease), certain medications (e.g., NSAIDs and antidepressants), or alcohol consumption.
- Symptoms: Symptoms of DAO deficiency may include bloating, headaches, hives, nasal congestion, asthma, and digestive discomfort after consuming histamine-rich foods.
Supplementing DAO:
- DAO Supplements: For those with low DAO levels, supplements taken before meals can enhance histamine breakdown in the gut, reducing intolerance symptoms. Our DAO is derived from high-quality animal sources and supports natural DAO activity.
- Lifestyle & Dietary Adjustments: Complementing supplements with a reduction in high-histamine foods and supporting gut health (e.g., healing the gut lining and addressing underlying conditions) are important for managing histamine levels.
DAO plays a key role in maintaining histamine balance, and supporting its function can be essential for those dealing with histamine intolerance or related health issues.
