Seasonal Allergies, Histamine, and the OTC Drug Combo That Backfires | With Steve

On the Evolving Wellness podcast, host Sarah Kleiner interviews returning guest Steve about seasonal allergies, histamine intolerance, and MCAS, emphasizing that the root problem is often loss of immune tolerance driven by gut dysbiosis, leaky gut, and Th1/Th2 imbalance from factors like antibiotics, PPIs, stress, mold, and environmental changes. They contrast symptom tools—antihistamines that block histamine receptors and herbs like quercetin/ginger that stabilize mast cells—with approaches aimed at lowering IgE formation and retraining gut–immune “crosstalk.” Steve describes postbiotics and beta-glucans as “tolerization rehab,” highlighting his product HoloImmune (heat-killed strains) and butyrate (TriButyrin-X) for gut lining and mast cell support, plus DAO enzymes for dietary histamine. They discuss safety, dosing, avoiding live probiotics during flares, and examples including motion sickness, bug-bite welts, and a child’s post-viral hives.— GUT HEALTH:  Healthy Gut Supplements- discount automatically applied: Holoimmune: https://healthygut.com/holoimmune-now/?rstr=811&coupon_code=Sarah15 Holozyme Link: https://healthygut.com/holozyme-now/?rstr=811&coupon_code=Sarah15 HCL Guard Link: https://healthygut.com/hcl-guard-now/?rstr=811&coupon_code=Sarah15 Tributyrin X: https://healthygut.com/tributyrin-x-now/?rstr=811&coupon_code=Sarah15 Magnesium: https://healthygut.com/magnesiumhp-now/?rstr=811&coupon_code=Sarah15 _________Sponsored By:→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/→ Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide._________Timestamp:00:00 Coming Up01:02 Podcast Intro Disclaimer02:15 Spring Allergies Setup05:05 Loss Of Tolerance08:02 Why Symptoms Worsen10:25 How Antihistamines Work11:59 Mast Cell Stabilizers14:20 Rewiring With Postbiotics16:20 Red Light Sponsor Break17:59 MCAS Pepcid Bridge22:11 Gut Healing Without Probiotics25:45 Blue Blockers Sponsor Break27:12 Mold And Individual Variance29:57 Antibiotics Farm Effect31:39 Dead Bugs Vs Probiotics32:40 Live vs Dead Probiotics33:25 Immune Software Updates35:28 Strawberry Hives Story36:40 Allergy Medicine Toolkit37:25 DAO Enzyme Explained40:05 Springtime Support Stack40:48 Root Causes and Triggers42:38 Immune Rehab and Tolerance45:56 How to Start Dosing49:11 Coaching Over AI51:47 Antihistamines and Acid Blockers53:56 How Long to Take It56:35 Leaky Gut and Butyrate57:39 Hidden Histamine Symptoms58:29 Motion Sickness and Bug Welts01:00:17 Wrap Up and Resources——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!
