This is a disorder, prominent in males, of too much histamine in the blood, as opposed to histapenia in which case there is too little.

Signs and Symptoms

Symptoms include hyperactivity, compulsions, obsessions, inner tensions, blank mind episodes, phobias, chronic depression, and strong suicidal tendencies.  Physical signs can include little tolerance for pain, rapid metabolism, lean build, profuse sweating, seasonal allergies, and frequent colds.

Treatment and Prevention

The treatment of histadelia requires great patience because six to ten weeks are often needed before the beginning of significant improvement.  The treatment usually takes twelve months to complete.

Signs, symptoms & indicators of Histadelia (Histamine High):

Histamine can cause additional mucus production.

Symptoms - Metabolic

Hyperactivity

Histamine speeds up metabolism producing a tendency towards hyperactivity.

Symptoms - Mind - Emotional

Counter-indicators

Symptoms - Mind - General

Being a motivated person or being highly motivated

Those with elevated histamine (histadelics) tend to work compulsively.

Conditions that suggest Histadelia (Histamine High):

Addictions

Addictions / Addictive Tendencies

Nutritional treatment for drug and alcohol users will depend on the results of a test for blood histamine levels.  In one series of such analysis, all users proved to have high histamine levels, leading the scientist to conclude that this abnormality – with its impact on brain function – is a major force in creating addiction. [Nutrition Guide for the Prevention and Cure of Common Ailments and Diseases, Carlton Fredericks, PhD. p.58]

Allergy

Mental

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Histadelics are often prone to obsessions, compulsions, and addictions.

Musculo-Skeletal

Skin-Hair-Nails

Sleep

Insomnia

The overarousal seen in histadelia may contribute to insomnia.

Histadelia (Histamine High) can lead to:

Mental

Depression

Histadelics are often chronically and suicidally depressed.

Histadelia (Histamine High) could instead be:

Mental

Schizophrenia

Some 15-20% of "schizophrenic" patients are in fact suffering from histadelia, which shares similar symptoms and can be misdiagnosed.

Recommendations for Histadelia (Histamine High):

Amino Acid / Protein

Methionine

Methionine supplements lower blood levels of histamine by increasing histamine breakdown.

Diet

Plant-Based Nutrition

Nutritionists recommend a low-protein, high complex carbohydrate diet.  Histidine, which is more common in animal proteins, should be avoided as it can be converted into histamine.

Laboratory Testing

Test Copper Levels

Testing serum or hair copper levels is usually adequate for evaluating copper status when low levels of copper are suspected and hair contamination with copper can be ruled out.  When in doubt, it would be better to use more accurate tests such as the 24 hour urine copper or serum ceruloplasmin.

Test Folic Acid Levels

Under certain conditions, such as anticipated or actual pregnancy, a simple lab test for serum folate levels is advisable.  If the test results show low levels, supplementation should be considered to prevent potential birth defects.

Mineral

Copper

Copper levels may be low to normal in patients with histadelia.  Copper is part of the enzyme histaminase, which is involved in the metabolism of histamine.

Vitamins

Not recommended
Folic Acid

Histadelics should avoid supplemental folic acid as it can produce excess histamine.  In fact, anti-folate drugs may be required.  Folic acid increases depression in histadelic patients and a trial of folic acid could be used to distinguish between histapenics and histadelics.  In extreme cases, folic acid in food or in multivitamins is enough to produce the adverse effects.
