Candida, cause of histamine intolerance

With this article we would like to clarify how Candida With a Histamine intolerance related or how Candida can promote histamine intolerance.
Because between fungal infections like Candida Albicans, one Histamine intolerance and mast cells (immune cells that release histamine if necessary) is very narrower and interesting connection.

What is Candida

Candida Albicans is one Yeast, who is in the intestine, skin, in the mucous membranes of mouth and throat, the bladder and in the genital area.
So Candida is a normal one Part of our body. As long as the intestinal flora is healthy, the fungus is excluded without further health consequences.
But Candida increases uncontrollably, he becomes a pathogen that cause great damage in the body can.
A so -called Candidosis arises.

Symptoms of a candidosis

It is very interesting that the Symptoms of Candida and histamine intolerance to confuse similar are. You can say that they are almost the same. Just like with histamine intolerance, Candida also has one Extremely wide range of non -specific symptoms, that vary from person to person. This makes it so difficult to recognize a candidosis.

Some symptoms of Candida are:

  • Gastrointestinal complaints: Constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, cramps, heartburn, gastritis
  • Neurological symptoms: Mood swings, migraines, headaches, difficulties of concentration, bad memory, dizziness, anxiety, depression, paranoia
  • Genital area: Vaginal infections, regular complaints, bladder infections, rectal itching
  • Breathing system: Hay fever, asthma, bronchitis, frequent colds, immune deficiency
  • Skin: Itching, rash, redness, psoriasis
  • Miscellaneous: Food allergies, chronic fatigue, cold extremities

Do you notice something? I could have listed symptoms of histamine intolerance as well. But no, this is about Candida.

Now the question arises:
If the reason for histamine intolerance is not an enzyme defect and also not a genetic defect, could Candida be the cause of histamine intolerance?

Connection between mast cells and candida

(1.2) Mast cells play a major role in allergic reactions. But this is only a small part of their tasks.
Mast cells Because have a load -bearing Role in identifying and combating pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi such as Candida Albicans. Mast cells are everywhere in the body, but the largest proportion can be found in our Digestive tract again.
The number of mast cells can increase extremely quickly with intestinal infections. Candida is associated with various intestinal infections such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel and stomach ulcers. Studies have shown that Candida slowed down the healing process of infections and favors infections in turn. A vicious circle is created.

Candida penetrates the body through mast cell -rich organs (skin, intestine and respiratory tract). Studies by Nosal R. and the Nature Journal (3, 4) confirm that Candida leads to a histamine release in the mast cells. Mast cells have receptors that recognize fungal infections and take appropriate measures to combat, such as the Salvation of histamine. Candida increases in the intestine it comes to Histamine releasethat with inadequate dismantling, Cause inflammation can. Candida also reduces the body's ability to reduce histamine by the Dao reduced. (5)
The next vicious circle is created.

If Candida increases uncontrollably, the fungus also sets toxic metabolic products (mycotoxins) free in our body.
Also generated Candida his own alcohol in our blood.
And we know what reactions alcohol can cause in the case of affected people of histamine intolerance.

Candida and increased intestinal permeability

Another study points out that one Candidafehl settlement in the intestine of food allergies.
The reason for this is an increased Intestinal permeability the intestinal mucosa that through a excessive histamine release arises (6).
It is even assumed that an imbalance of Candida in the intestine causes the same holes in the intestinal mucosa as in the case of Leaky good syndrome.
The Candida Pilz gets into the bloodstream through these holes and can do great damage there.

Candida Allergy

The latest research (7) showed that above all Women can react allergically to Candida. This hypersensitivity can Long -term infections trigger. One also speaks of a Candida hypersiveness. First one 2 year olds! Immunotherapy reduced the relapse rate of the infections and their intensity (8). Candida hypersivity is still very controversial by doctors. Well, we already know that from histamine intolerance.

Why are women affected more often?

Women are more susceptible to Candida than men. This is the following reasons:

  • The female hormone balance fluctuates constantly and so high amounts of estrogen can occur. This affects the function of the immune system. If the immune system is weakened, Candida can creep in.
  • Candida's growth is stimulated by the hormone progesterone. Progesterone is increased during pregnancy and in the second half of the menstrual cycle.
  • The woman's anatomy also contributes to a settlement with Candida. Vaginal fungal infections are possible diseases.

Treatment of Candida

With the help of a therapist, Candida can be killed in conventional medicine or naturopathic. A certain sugar and carbohydrate-free diet should be observed during time. Candida loves sugar and feeds on it. After that, intestinal renovation has proven to be particularly helpful to regenerate the intestinal mucosa.

Conclusion

Candida can be the cause of histamine intolerance. Because both often go hand in hand. The hard facts are:

  • A candidabulary causes the release of histamine from the mast cells. This triggers symptoms of histamine intolerance.
  • Candida reduces the DAO function and thus the breakdown of histamine.
  • Candida makes the intestinal mucosa permeable, so poisons can get into our body uncontrollably.
  • The symptoms of Candida and histamine intolerance are confused.
  • Candida can trigger food allergies.
  • Candida releases toxic metabolic products. These can get into our bloodstream through the permeable intestinal mucosa.
  • Candida favors inflammation and intestinal infections.
  • Women in particular can react allergically to Candida. This can trigger long-lasting infections (Candida hypersiability).

With a test you can quickly find out whether you have Candida. This test is absolutely recommended for histamine intolerance.

With the voucher code: HST05VE you get a 5% discount on the test. Simply click on the picture.

Ultimately, it is important to answer the following questions:

  • Is "only" histamine intolerance and no Candida?
  • Or is there a candida AND Histamine intolerance?
  • Or exists "ONLY“Candida and did this trigger histamine intolerance?

If it is certain, if Candida is reduced in the intestine, the histamine content in the intestine is also reduced. (Attention: This candidate test only determines whether there is a candida. With it no histamine intolerance can be determined. Other tests are necessary.)

From those affected for those affected

We are Thomas and Michaela Zinser, founder of Histaminikus.

Because of the own histamine intolerance of Michaela and our son, we founded Histaminikus. The frustration does not find any suitable histamine food has spurred us to develop low -histamine food.
We would like to give you back a piece of quality of life. Feel free to look around with us.

Kind regards
