Daosin (histamine intolerance)

Description

Daosin is a food supplement for special medical uses that contains the enzyme diamine oxidase (DAO) for the dietary management of DAO deficiency (histamine intolerance). Diamine oxidase (DAO) breaks down histamine consumed with food in the intestine.

Properties and benefits of Daosin (histamine intolerance)

What is histamine?

Histamine is a messenger substance that belongs to the group of so-called biogenic amines. It can be synthesized by the body itself, however, it can also be obtained naturally, as it is present in many foods. Being a biological messenger substance, histamine has several functions in the body. As a neurotransmitter, it intervenes, among other functions, in the regulation of the sleep-wake rhythm and in the control of appetite, as well as in memory and learning capacity. However, histamine acts mainly as a process mediator in allergic reactions.

What happens to histamine that we get from food?

Under normal conditions, eating foods containing histamine will have no consequences, as these food-derived histamines will be quickly broken down in the intestine by the body's own diamine oxidase (DAO) enzyme. When a diet high in histamine is consumed, the activity of this diamine oxidase (DAO) enzyme may not be sufficient, leading to delayed degradation of histamine in the intestine. Additionally, certain medications can significantly reduce the activity of the DAO enzyme. When the breakdown of histamine is delayed, its level in the body will increase momentarily.

How does DAOSin® work?

The DiAminoOxidase contained in DAOSin® complements the body's own enzyme, which is responsible for metabolizing histamine. Taking a capsule of DAOSin® before each meal increases the amount of DAO in the small intestine and, therefore, the ability to break down histamine. This accelerates the processing in the digestive tract of the histamine present in food, which is the trigger of the symptoms.

How to take Daosin (histamine intolerance)?

It is recommended to take 1 tablet with a little water 15 minutes before a meal containing histamine. The maximum recommended daily dose is 3 tablets (corresponding to three meals a day containing histamine).

Precautions

It is absolutely necessary to take DAOSiN® before food (ideally about 15 minutes before). After this time, the tablet should have already dissolved and the DAO contained will be active by the time the food containing histamine reaches the intestine. The tablet should not be chewed, it should be swallowed whole to allow the contents to pass through the stomach and reach the intestine without being affected. If you are taking medications regularly, ask your doctor or pharmacist if any of the active substances contained in these medications can reduce the breakdown of histamine. Alcohol can substantially inhibit the activity of the DAO enzyme. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of small children.
