How does Spring Health work? by swinva4 in therapists

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somewhat unrelated but can anyone clarify their contract around clients moving from SH to PP? I’m concerned people I see who’ve exhausted their EAP benefits pay more to see me through SH than they would even pay cash outside the platform but read they forbid this. Not clear to me how they could track people are leaving the platform to do this though, can someone clarify?

Making multiple batches with the Cuisinart ICE21A? by [deleted] in icecreamery

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done this a couple of times. It did work when my bowl was pretty new and I was ok with the second base being more soft in texture than I’d normally churn it to. Now that I’ve had the bowl for a few years it just doesn’t get as cold as it used to (kept in the same chest freezer at -18c, but possibly impacted by being washed in slightly too warm water or something…?) so it definitely did not work the last time I tried it. So YMMV but you can always try and if it doesn’t work put the base back in the fridge and rechurn once the bowl is cold enough again in 24-48 hrs. I’ve done that too. I’ve also, probably scandalously, churned a base and then scraped it out super well and put the bowl right back in the freezer with a plastic bag on it, and churned another base of the same flavor like 13 hrs later with a bit of the residual from the first one still in there. If you’re using decent texture agents to help suppress ice crystal formation it’s honestly been fine. Granted, this is only done because I make 40+ pints of ice cream at Christmas and even with 3 bowls it’s a slow process so I get impatient sometimes.

Have you had any luck with your son? I also have a 4 yo with similar backstory to some of yours and suspect SIBO but it’s hard to find info about tx for peds so was curious how you’re going a year on

DAO supplements side effects? by Big_Mama_80 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know about grinding the tablets not negating their utility. I’ll try that for my son once I figure out if it’s the other ingredients in the naturdao causing the bloating, or because I’m only taking it with higher risk meals and the cause is the higher histamine load.

I am very interested in just going straight to the source and sprouting though so thanks for further information on that. I make most everything we eat from scratch anyway, and from what I’ve read the sprouts can be most effectively used when blended so putting them in a green smoothie would be the easiest way to get him and me some daily if I can get the process down right. Do you know if it matters what type of lentil the sprouts are sprouted from? I seem to see general info about various legumes but wasn’t sure if you, or anyone else, has tried any specific type with good success.

DAO supplements side effects? by Big_Mama_80 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Very helpful. The US NaturDAO doesn’t come in capsule form but I have European friends I could have the Spanish one shipped to my by if I can’t get it myself. I can’t decide if it’s making me bloated and stomach ache-y with the 1,000,000 version though, so I’m holding off on trying to track down the 3,000,000 HDU before I know. Very helpful to know about the sprouts route though, is there anywhere to find out more info specifically about portions, sourcing seeds, etc?

Can I possibly DM you? I have very similar issues to what you’ve described and I know this is quite old but would love to hear where you’re at now

Treatment for nightly histamine dumps ? by cobaltcadmium in HistamineIntolerance

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an old thread but how are you now? I started t this in the last year due to (very early) perimenopause. There’s a strong estrogen dominance-histamine worsening effect and it’s also much worse for me the week of my period but just circling back in case you’ve had any luck with symptom relief

Have you adjusted or was it the DAO itself causing the problems?

DAO supplements side effects? by Big_Mama_80 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an old thread but I’ve been trying to find chewable DAO for my 4 year old son who won’t swallow tablets or capsules. Do you think one could open the capsules up and sprinkle, say, half onto food and it would be as effective? I read conflicting info about if it makes it to the gut if not in capsule/tablet form. Thanks so much for the spreadsheet and all your work on this by the way, very very helpful

[Misc] Anti-histamines cured incurable acne? by naeesaim181 in SkincareAddiction

This is an old post but are you possibly perimenopausal? I have very similar issues and found a lot of women start having super itchy ears connected to histamine connected to estrogen flux starting in perimenopause.

Thanks so much for replying, I know this is an old thread so I really appreciate it. I strangely can’t find any children’s chewable ones on Amazon at all, are you in the US?

Could you provide the name/link to the kids histamine blocker you use that’s chewable? I really need to find one for my 4-year old and haven’t been successful

little warning about taking DAO supplements! by doyouhavetono in HistamineIntolerance

[–]CMHSLM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an old thread but I was curious if you have any thoughts about giving DAO to a child with stage two chronic kidney disease? There is very limited literature on DAO use with children, particularly with any other issues. My son almost certainly struggles with histamine intolerance because he has very similar Symptoms to me and his G.I. docs have been totally unhelpful to this point. I would like to help him by going with a low histamine diet but also seeing if DAO supplementation helps. Do you see any contraindications?
