Histamine
A chemical your immune system releases, also found in certain food and drink.
Some people have a hard time breaking it down when it's ingested. As a result, it can build up and can cause a histamine intolerance.
Tipping point
Certain food and drink can cause our body's 'histamine bucket' to fill up. If our bodies can't break it down quickly enough, the bucket can overflow.
Meat, fish, wine and cheese are some of the most common high histamine foods and drink.
Empty the bucket
Tolerance's leading product, Aperitif, provides your body with 48,000 histamine degrading units (HDUs). Aperitif's diamine oxidase (DAO) enzymes help break down high amounts of histamine flowing through your body.

Tolerance Residency Programme
We regularly partner with leading nutritional experts to ensure our platform supports our customers' management of histamine intolerance at every stage of the journey. Tolerance is currently visited by Cat and Rosie from the Oxford Gastro Dietitians.
Diamine Oxidase
Diamine oxidase (DAO) has one job, and that's to break down histamine. DAO enzymes are naturally produced by our bodies.
Some people either don't have enough DAO or the enzymes aren't working properly. That's where Aperitif comes in.
A food supplement that increases the amount of DAO in our bodies. Aperitif's ingredients are hand picked from reputable suppliers across Europe. Scientifically backed and clinically tested so that each capsule contains market leading enzymatic activity (48,000 HDUs) and bioavailability.
