Histamine Intolerance Genetic DNA Test - Mouth Swab
Histamine Intolerance Genetic DNA Test - Mouth Swab
The Histamine Intolerance Genetic Report Add-On is exclusively available to individuals who have already ordered the Ultimate Methylation DNA Test.
Due to the wide distribution of histamine receptors throughout the body, people who experience HIT have different symptoms once histamine enters the bloodstream. These symptoms include nasal congestion, asthma, diarrhea, skin rashes or hives, mood / anxiety issues, headaches, irregular heartbeat and low blood pressure
Since DAO is the main enzyme to breakdown histamine in the gastrointestinal tract, it is proposed that the inability to efficiently metabolise histamine is the primary contributor to HIT symptoms. In people who have decreased DAO enzyme function, also known as a ‘DAO deficiency', histamine builds up faster than it can be broken down.
This test is ideal for patients looking to find out what supplements they should be taking and what foods / nutrients they require to minimime the effects of histamine intolerance.
This test can be ordered at the same time as the Ultimate DNA test or it can be ordered within 6 months of your Ultimate methylation test results date.
The DNA used to produce the Histamine report is from your original Ultimate cheek swab - no additional swab kit is dispatched.

Q. When do I receive my results?
Results will be sent to you as a lab PDF. The same cheek swab is used for both the Ultimate and the Histamine report. If you ordered both tests at the same time then results will be ready at the same time (approx 3 weeks from sample being received back at the labs). If you ordered this test within 6 months of your original Ultimate test then the additional Histamine DNA PDF will be ready in approximately 1 week..
Q. I currently have a cold / am taking certain medications – will this affect my results?
No. As we're testing the genetic code, which is fixed, the test is not impacted by illness, infections, medication, the food you eat, or supplements you take.
