A member asked:

If someone has histamine intolerance, does it mean the body is constantly in an autoimmune response?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

?: Not sure what you mean by histamine intolerance. Histamine is typically released by certain cells in the body in an allergic type response. That is different then an autoimmune issue.
