were you intolerant to high histamine foods?Copper is pretty tricky and individual.
For me it only took 2-3 months to have massive relief of HIT. (-90% symptoms)
During that time I consumed daily..
around 1-2 oz of grass-fed beef liver, cooked mushrooms, boiled peeled potatoes as the major carbohydrate source and took supplemental whole food vitamin C.
I was on ~7-10mg of dietary copper probably at that time.
I played around with DAO supplementation which helped massively in the process, but if it does not help than you probably don‘t have an DAO deficiency but probably more issues with HNMT enzymes - that‘s where it might be useful to play around with methylated B-vitamins, optimizing SAMe production, homocysteine recycling and so on.
I started eating beef again, and oh boy, the runny nose and sneezing is ruthless, I also had orange juice and stopped taking my desiccated liver & cacao.
Beef makes me feel way better so I need to figure it out. I'll try to add back cacao and some desiccated liver and drop the orange juice, if that won't work maybe try SAM-e.
