Today I wanted to talk about the low FOMDAP diet, but not for the reasons you may think.

Today, I don’t actually want to talk about it specifically for IBS/SIBO (though we will touch upon that again), I want to talk about its benefits for histamine, because the low FODMAP diet can actually be a way to lower histamine levels.
