Well, you bring up an interesting thing because, you know, as I have seen more and more patients, and I think we are seeing more patients who have, you know, histamine intolerance, call it mast cell activation syndrome, to what degree, is there are certain individuals who can be a little bit more predisposed towards this.

So people who have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, you know, the hypermobile people can actually have, for whatever reasons, will have a higher incidence of histamine intolerance. The other thing in the case I recently had was a patient who came in to me with severe mast cell activation syndrome.

It was on a whole bunch of different medicines, including chromium, which we talked about earlier, to decrease food reactions to histamine. And I saw the patient, and he gave a very interesting history. He had this skin lesion, which sort of like morphed into this almost like an ulcer. scarring type ulcerated lesion on his back area.

He saw multiple dermatologists, had a biopsy, had part of the area removed, and was ultimately diagnosed with some type of form of a scleroderma, sort of like a malignant scleroderma, which is sort of interesting and like, oh, what's that related to? But he was also having all of these histamine type reactions.
