Histamine Intolerance: The Hidden Driver Behind Anxiety, Reflux, and Bloating

In this episode, I talk with Heather Oricchio about the many ways histamine intolerance can affect the body, from anxiety and acid reflux to skin issues, hormonal symptoms, and gut imbalances. We explore why histamine issues are becoming more common, what root causes may be driving them, and why true healing often requires more than diet changes alone. Heather also shares the lifestyle and lab-based strategies she uses to help clients improve.- - - - -About the Guest:Heather Oricchio is an FDN practitioner and former occupational therapist who specializes in histamine intolerance, mast cell activation, gut health, and root-cause healing. After navigating her own health challenges, she uncovered the role histamine played in her symptoms and built her practice around helping others identify underlying triggers such as mold, infections, hormonal imbalances, and nervous system dysfunction. Her work supports a more personalized, data-driven approach to lifestyle medicine.- - - - -Social Handles:Website: https://www.revivewithheather.com/Instagram: @revive_with_heather- - - - -Connect with Dr. Ivan RusilkoInstagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/drivanrusilko/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivanrusilko/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠This podcast is brought to you by Access Medical Labs.
