✨Antihistamines are NOT a cure✨

And they’re NOT going to address the root cause.

However...

What they can do is help calm symptoms down and give your body a bit of breathing space.

Because when you’re in the middle of severe histamine overload, MCAS, M.E. or Long Covid symptoms — when you’re crashing, dizzy, exhausted, fainting, reacting to everything and feeling like your body is in complete chaos — you’re not exactly in the best place to start investigating root causes.

Sometimes symptom relief is exactly what’s needed to help steady the ship.

Because Famotidine reduces stomach acid, I personally took it away from my main meals and used a digestive enzyme containing betaine HCl when I ate to help support digestion. For me - Famotidine DID cause gut issues AND nutrient deficiencies which lead to a whole host of other issues. I share this to inform you. Not alarm you.

The good news is that there are a gazillion other things you can do to help manage symptoms and support your body.

Medication is just one small part of the puzzle.

I created my Guide - The Histamine Handbook - to help people understand the bigger picture and explore practical ways to support your body beyond antihistamines.

It’s a 173-page interactive Handbook that goes into the potential root causes that may be driving symptoms in the first place.

Antihistamines are NOT a cure. I really want to shout this from the rooftops...

And they’re NOT going to address the root cause.

However...

What they can do is help calm symptoms down and give your body a bit of breathing space.

Because when you’re in the middle of severe histamine overload, MCAS, M.E. or Long Covid symptoms — when you’re crashing, dizzy, exhausted, fainting, reacting to everything and feeling like your body is in complete chaos — you’re not exactly in the best place to start investigating root causes.

Sometimes symptom relief is exactly what’s needed to help steady the ship.

Over the coming days and weeks, I’m going to be talking more about this.

What they do.

How they differ.

And my own personal experience using them.

Medication is just one small part of the puzzle though.

In my 173-page interactive Histamine Handbook, I also cover food, supplements, hormones, gut health, mould, nervous system regulation, environmental triggers, medications, mast cell stabilisers and the root causes that may be driving symptoms in the first place.

Curious about what’s inside my new guide?

OK… I’ve got you.

Get your free download of a preview of my guide here:

https://www.glo-jo.co.uk/vip-preview

Here you’ll fine the FULL contents page so you can see the forensic level of detail I’ve gone into and just how many topics are covered inside the handbook.

And when I say interactive… I mean genuinely designed for people with brain fog, cognitive overload, fatigue and overwhelmed nervous systems.

Every section in the contents menu is hyperlinked.
So you simply click the topic you want and it takes you straight there instantly.

No endless scrolling.
No trying to remember where you saw something 80 pages ago.

At the bottom of every page there’s also a “Return To Menu” button, so even if you’re deep into the handbook, you can jump straight back to the contents page and move around easily.

I’ve also embedded bookmarks and links throughout the guide itself. So if I’m discussing hormones, gut dysfunction, nervous system overload, food reactions, mould, supplements, blood sugar or MCAS triggers and there’s another relevant section connected to it, you can click straight through without having to hunt for it yourself.

Because (as I very well know!) when you’ve got M.E., POTS, Long Covid, fibromyalgia, MCAS or histamine overload… your brain is already doing enough heavy lifting.

I wrote this handbook because I was tired of seeing people left trying to connect impossible dots whilst exhausted, inflamed, dismissed and overwhelmed.

This isn’t just a food list.
It’s a deep dive into the WHY behind symptoms.

It combines my professional background in health education with over a decade of lived experience navigating this personally.

I wrote the guide I wish somebody had handed me years ago.….

You might not be reacting to the FOOD… you might be reacting to the HEAT. 🔥

One of the biggest clues I noticed with histamine overload and MCAS was that steaming hot food could flare me up almost instantly.

Why? Because mast cells react to heat. And not just external heat.

So if you’re eating food that’s absolutely piping hot and steaming, that heat can trigger mast cells in the gut to release histamine. Meaning the issue isn’t always the ingredient itself… sometimes it’s the temperature.

This is why some people notice:
• flushing
• sweating
• dizziness
• heart palpitations
• breathlessness
• anxiety feelings
• stomach pain
• bloating
• or feeling “reactive” after eating

…and assume it’s automatically a food.

Sometimes your nervous system and mast cells are simply responding to the heat load.

Tiny clues like this matter. MASSIVELY.

Because healing often isn’t about one magic supplement or one miracle diet. It’s about learning your body’s patterns, triggers and thresholds.

This is exactly the kind of detective work I teach inside my new 170+ page interactive Histamine Handbook.

It connects the dots between histamine overload, MCAS, M.E., POTS, Long Covid, nervous system dysfunction, gut symptoms, hormone issues, environmental triggers and food reactions in a way that actually makes sense.

The guide also includes supplement links, recipes, low histamine support strategies and the exact things that helped me get to a far more stable place with my own health.

Healing isn’t just about food.

It’s also about what your body is surrounded by all day long.

Including the clothes on your skin.

Polyester is essentially plastic derived from petroleum. It’s often treated with dyes, chemical finishes, flame retardants, stain-resistant coatings and other synthetic compounds before it even reaches the shop floor.

And when you’re someone with M.E., MCAS, nervous system dysfunction, chemical sensitivity or chronic inflammation… these things can matter.

For me personally, polyester makes me feel hotter, more inflamed, more static, more uncomfortable in my body. Natural fibres like cotton and linen simply feel calmer and more breathable on my system.

Your skin is your biggest organ.

What you wear…
What you breathe…
What you clean with…
What you spray in your home…
What you sleep on…

It all forms part of the bigger picture.

And whilst science is still catching up in some areas, many people also feel a very real energetic difference between synthetic fabrics and natural fibres. Natural materials tend to feel more grounding and less overstimulating to the nervous system.

This is why in my new 170+ page interactive guide, I cover multiple chapters on home environment and low-tox living — because improving your health isn’t always just about supplements and food.

Sometimes it’s about reducing the overall load your body is dealing with every single day.

This guide combines:
• 20 years working in health
• 12 years lived experience navigating M.E., MCAS and complex health dysfunction
• months of writing, research and collating
• practical tools, product links, studies, protocols and nervous system support strategies

It’s not a quick-fix PDF.

It’s for people who are genuinely serious about understanding their body and investing in their health.

M.E. recovery isn’t linear.
And getting to a better place with your health often means becoming a bit of a medical detective. 🕵🏻‍♀️

When your body is throwing out 100 different symptoms at once — exhaustion, dizziness, pain, sensory overload, anxiety, gut issues, PEM, insomnia, brain fog — trying to decipher what’s actually going on can feel terrifying and completely consuming. I know. I’ve lived it since 2014.

Sometimes it’s PEM.
Sometimes it’s nervous system overload.
Sometimes it’s food, histamine, hormones, inflammation, cognitive overload, environmental stress… and sometimes your body is simply screaming for change.

There’s even something called environmental fatigue — where your nervous system becomes exhausted by the same environment, the same four walls, the same energy, the same routine. Sometimes changing something small can shift everything.

Your nervous system is incredibly intelligent and incredibly sensitive when you’ve got M.E. Your body is constantly communicating with you. The hard part is learning the language.

And no — you won’t always get it right.

I’ve had moments where I’ve known my body needed sweating, detoxing and calming, and my sauna has brought me back to life.
I’ve also had moments where I thought it was that… and it was actually PEM, and I overdid it.

That’s part of the process too.

Recovery isn’t about perfection. It’s about gently testing boundaries, collecting clues, learning your patterns, making mistakes, recalibrating and trying again.

There will also be days where the healing is simply lying on the sofa watching rubbish TV and riding the wave until it passes. That counts too.

But the key is this:
don’t stop listening to your body.
Don’t stop learning it.
Don’t stop trying.

Because whilst having M.E. is hard… fighting for your way back to yourself is worth it

I became pretty much a recluse when I developed MCAS as I pretty much became allergic to life!

So one of signs my body was calming down from MCAS wasn’t perfection… it was flexibility.

With MCAS I would become very unwell very quickly with so many foods. But also - Perfume. Laundry detergent. Cleaning sprays. Restaurants. Other people’s homes. Even having visitors over could make me ill.

I stayed home because home felt “safer.”

At the end of September last year, I ended up in hospital with MCAS-related gastritis.

Fast forward to now… and whilst I still choose low-tox living, my body has more wiggle room.

I can go out for meals.
Be around people wearing perfume (even though my family 9/10 don’t wear it around me anymore - thank you)
Tolerate environments I once couldn’t.
Move loads more.
Live more fully.

That’s what healing can start to look like.

Not necessarily zero symptoms overnight.
But more resilience.
More flexibility.
More capacity.

If your body is becoming less reactive, less fragile, less “everything sets me off”… that matters.

It means your system may be calming down.
Your toxic load may be reducing.
Your nervous system may be becoming less stuck in survival mode. Your mast cells are less reactive.

So if you’re noticing even tiny signs of more tolerance — keep going. Even 1% is good.

That little bit of wiggle room?
That’s progress. ✨

Histamine Overload + Chronic Health Conditions: Why Oxygen + Movement Matter

⭐️I’ve written a 170+ page interactive guide for those that live with M.E., POTS, Fibromyalgia, MCAS or Long Covid.

⭐️Comment “Guide” and I’ll send you the link to it.

Histamine overload can drive symptoms like flushing, headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and pain. Think of it like a bucket — when histamine pours in faster than your body clears it, the bucket overflows.

Here’s how to keep it flowing out ⬇️

💨 Movement = Lymph Flow
Your lymph system clears histamine, but it has no pump. Even gentle walking in the morning keeps it moving.

🌬 Oxygen Fuels DAO + HNMT
These are your histamine-clearance enzymes. They need oxygen to work. Fresh air + deep breathing = better histamine breakdown.

☀️ Light Calms Mast Cells
Morning light balances cortisol + circadian rhythm, reducing histamine release in the first place.

✨ Bottom line: Morning movement outdoors = oxygen, lymph flow, and calmer mast cells. A simple, free ritual to stop the histamine bucket from overflowing.
