💥 1. Methylation clears histamine.
Your MTHFR gene helps produce methylfolate, which fuels methylation. One of the key enzymes that breaks down histamine (HNMT) depends on methylation. If you’re not methylating well, histamine builds up—especially in the brain and gut.

💡 2. DAO gets hit too.
DAO (diamine oxidase) clears histamine in the gut, but it requires nutrients like B6 and vitamin C. MTHFR mutations can lead to poor nutrient absorption and leaky gut, which lowers DAO levels. That’s why histamine-rich foods trigger symptoms like headaches, flushing, or post-meal fatigue.

🔥 3. Estrogen and histamine fuel each other.
Estrogen stimulates mast cells to release histamine… and histamine increases estrogen. Women with MTHFR mutations often have trouble detoxifying estrogen due to poor methylation and COMT activity, leading to estrogen dominance and monthly histamine flares.

⚠️ 4. Immune system on edge.
Poor methylation weakens immune regulation, making mast cells more reactive. This leads to “random” symptoms like itching, dizziness, food reactions, and feeling allergic to life.

🧠 5. Histamine affects the brain.
Too much histamine = anxiety, insomnia, irritability. Add hormonal shifts and poor methylation? It’s a perfect storm.

Aching joints? Tight hips? Numb hands?
You’re not just getting older… this could be perimenopause talking.

Yep, hormone fluctuations (especially declining estrogen) don’t just mess with your mood and periods—they can also cause joint pain, stiffness, tingling, and even frozen shoulder (one of the most painful and frustrating symptoms I see).

If your knees are creaky, your hips feel tight, or your shoulders are constantly tense, you’re not alone. And if you’ve ever woken up with numb hands or that pins-and-needles feeling in your arms or legs, yep—that can be part of it too.

Here’s why:
Estrogen plays a big role in keeping inflammation low, joint fluid healthy, and our nervous system regulated. When it drops? Everything can feel off.

Here’s what helps:
✨ Stay hydrated—water is your joint’s best friend

✨ Gentle movement + daily stretching = mobility magic

✨ Omega-3s (hello, flax, chia, and salmon) help calm inflammation

✨ A high-quality type 2 collagen supplement (game changer)

✨ Anti-inflammatory foods like turmeric & ginger

✨ HRT might be worth discussing with your provider

And if the tingling or numbness sticks around—please get it checked. It’s often harmless, but it’s always good to rule out anything more serious.

Read new groundbreaking research on Zero Balancing and anxiety.

Calming the Body, Calming the Mind:
A Pilot Study on the Use of Zero Balancing to Reduce Anxiety
by Misty L. Rhoads and Mary Murphy

"The predominance of anxiety is currently at record levels, and the need for non-pharmaceutical approaches to help alleviate and decrease the harmful effects of anxiety on an individual and collective level is necessary. This study explored how Zero Balancing supports individuals with anxiety to manage their physical, mental, and emotional health more effectively. Researchers hypothesized that Zero Balancing would lower the perceived severity of general anxiety and lower perceived anxiety symptoms."

A quote from one participant in the study after receiving 4 Zero Balancing sessions over 4 weeks: "I have noticed like more and more each week I am able to pause, take a deep
breath, and get through the stress better and hard situations instead of letting them ruin my day."

Horseradish tincture

Makes your eyes water and clears your sinuses. Intense!

Slice horseradish root into thin even disks. Cut disks into thin even strips. Chop strips into a small dice.

Fill jar to the top with diced horseradish.

Add 100 proof vodka and label.

While it is typical to wait six weeks before using a tincture, if the horseradish is finely chopped, this tincture can be used within 24 hours after
preparation.

The longer it sits, the stronger it gets.

Start with 5-10 drops doses (orally) and increase as needed to clear nasal and sinus congestion.
(do not use in nasal passage)
