Histamine and its Actions - Quick Review!

I originally recorded this video a couple of years ago for my students (you'll see that it's meant to be prep material for an upcoming lecture). However, I decided to post it here in hopes you may find it helpful in your own studies. Thanks for watching this MiniMedLesson!

Woo boy, histamine is definitely NOT limited in terms of its effects in the brain! Histamine is the most overlooked neurotransmitter of all time. I'm only a professional patient, not any kind of medical professional, but the following things disappeared from my life, INSTANTLY, when I got histamine under control: depression, anxiety, irritability, obsessive thinking, hallucinations, delusions, anorexia, literal thinking, self-harm urges, suicidal ideation, nihilism, paranoia, rash thinking/impulsiveness, mania, echolalia, flashbacks, hypersexuality, addiction, insomnia, selfishness, and codependency. Histamine is a big part of why animals have mating seasons, and it's also a big part of why people feel spooky in the fall as leaves rot all around us. It's a big part of both fear conditioning and motivation, and it's involved in creativity, humor, and intuition.

This is very informative and very helpful for my nursing exam Monday. Thank you so much for posting this. I have gotten 3 pages of notes from this 15min video. The best and well explained presentation I have found to date. Thanks so much!

Thank you Professor. It really was a good presentation. Thanks for making it simple to understand for a layman like myself.

This is amazing! You explained it all so simply and this is a great start to me understanding lupus!

Thank you Sir, you have a brilliant way of explaining everything in basic detail. Now I have a better understanding of what happens to my Body regarding Histamine reaction etc 😊

I had a severe reaction to emergency responders pushing an IV of saline in the ambulance.
By the time I got to the hospital, I had hives, swollen ears, and eyes.
Luckily, my GP was on rounds in the hospital and knew my history of weird reactions.
She said, "are you going to stop scaring these people and time soon!"

Just got my first allergic reaction for the first time in 19 years lmao due to dust, and here i am trying to understand more about histamine and the anti histamine i take before sleep.

Super informative, thank you for sharing. I have been experiencing some histamine intolerance and trying to figure out why and how to overcome it.

[voxsilen]

Thank you for this! Love the way you explained it. Makes learning fun and easy.

Great presentation, thanks. You did not talk about DAO and methylation to degrade histamine.

[virginiabaker]

[charlieholden]

Great lecture, concise and to the point, thanks

Very very interesting. I'd love to learn more about histamine. At the end of 2019 I became allergic to potassium sorbate (E202) and as someone who's always had perfect health and no allergies previous to this, I'd love to know more about how it all works. Great video!

[mrseanpride]

Do you have more videos? I wish you talked more about the gut, ulcers and gastric acid. It would be interesting if you believe that the gut being more acidic stops the enzymes breaking down histamine as well as it should?

Fantastic lecture! Could I ask for a reference text where the stuff is coming from. I can't find it in Guyton.

[mohamedabdelrehim]

Thank you so much, valuable information and scientific facts, unfortunately thousands of doctors around the world juts write prescriptions for their sick patients without a proper investigations to symptoms. These medicine have harmful side effects and getting their health worse
