VITAMIN E -v- PARASITES

I've been back onto health research and I've been looking deeper at "parasites" in humans. This website for the Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal mentions how fleas can be the cause of "parasites" found in human stools. While I was reading the research I was given VITAMIN E.

The next phase of the research was to find the link between Vitamin E and the health issue specified. This article features research with mice and it was found that if there was a deficiency in Selenium and Vitamin E, it could stop the body from ejecting "parasites/bacteria" out of the body. If the body doesn't eject the "parasite/s", then the body can become infected.

If you already have an infection of the G.I. tract it can be very difficult for the body to absorb Selenium. It is also important to remember that some foods rich in Selenium are also high in histamine and too much histamine can be one of the causes of inflammation. 

With Vitamin E, avocado's are one of the foods that are high in histamine. If you have an histamine overload, it can also trigger MAST CELL activation. 

HISTAMINE INTOLERANCE?

This video is called "Is Histamine Intolerance: The Cause Of Your Mysterious Symptoms? This is interesting because I sometimes take an anti-histamine if I have the flare-up of a skin condition. 

Dr Mark Hyman sits down with Dr Todd LePine to discuss how they work with patients to get to the root cause of histamine intolerance. They discuss the rising prevalence of mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), how gut health influences histamine, and much more. 

Symptoms can include skin allergies, brain fog, digestive issues, menstrual cycle problems, nausea, vomiting, edema, palpitations, anxiety, can all result from issues of histamine intolerance. 

This is functional medicine. The video is 41 mins.
