How HistaGest-DAO Works

Diamine Oxidase (DAO) Enzyme Support

DAO is the enzyme responsible for metabolizing ingested, food-derived histamine. Each tablet provides 20,000 HDU of DAO activity from porcine kidney extract to support the breakdown of dietary histamines in the GI tract.

Gastro-Resistant Delayed-Release Technology

The gastro-resistant coating is designed to protect the DAO enzyme as it passes through the stomach, allowing it to reach the small intestine.

Support for Histamine-Rich Foods

Common histamine-rich foods include fermented foods, alcoholic beverages, fish, cured meats, cheese, and certain fruits and vegetables. HistaGest-DAO provides supplemental DAO to support the breakdown of food-derived histamines.
