SIBO and Histamine IntolerancePresenter: Heidi Turner, MS, RDNOriginal Date: March 16, 2019Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth can create an inflammatory state in the gut that reduces the ability to digest dietary histamines. For those with histamine intolerance, this can trigger more inflammation both in the gut and systemically, leading to a variety of histamine-mediated symptoms. In this presentation we will discuss how histamine dysregulation and intolerance in those with SIBO is assessed and managed in this highly sensitive population.1.5 general CEUs approved by OBNM
