Histamine Issues page is based on Alison Vickery's Web Site suggestions. Unfortunately to use the page requires a uBiome sample to have been uploaded.
Here is an example report from one of the current contributors:

A patient of his forwarded me the Metagenomics Stool results from Laboratorium voor Medische Ontledingen. I have created a page to derive recommendations from it: Metagenomics Stool (De Meirleir).

A reader is up to 90% recovered and shared her uBiome. Bifidobacterium and Akkermansia has returned; Lactobacillus has made a start. The reader also lists what helped her get there. Her Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio is still off and she still has overgrowths of some bacteria genus (three of...
A reader informed me that he has just gotten his 4th ubiome done. This is especially interesting because he recorded his Health Score when each one was done — thus we may be able to see patterns between the microbiome and the health score.

The best starting point is to get a uBiome done. It is unlikely that you are high in ALL bacteria genus (a lower level of identification). The uBiome will identify the genus that are high.
At a very high level, CFS patients always have a shift in the Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio. But the...
Revisiting old Ubiome’s “C”
A year ago, several readers shared their ubiome for me and I did a series of post looking for patterns. See this post on the Genus Numbers.
It is time that I do deep dives for these early sharers.

This drug has become a hot topic in some CFS circles. Whenever a topic becomes hot, I try to compare it against my microbiome model. In the past, there have been a good hit rate for those that cause some improvements -- the responders appear to be those CFS patients that happen to have a...
A reader forwarded me two reports, one from a male and one from a female. No notes on the people (I am fine with that). The report appear to be superior to uBiome on two counts:
It's a professional grade report from a clinical laboratory
It reports down to the strain level on occasion.

In several of my deep dives, Lactobacillus Kefiri is mentioned as being effective against selective bacteria genus over growths. A reader in Spain found that it is available!

When I first received Symbioflor-1 and Symbioflor-2, it was a surprise because they were both liquids with droppers to take them.
