Insomnia I found out in 1987 that I was intolerant to preservatives if I have anything containing preservatives I wake up between 1 and 2 (lowest point) and don’t sleep any more .this is hard to live with because preservatives are in most things, wine soft drinks processed foods sweets it is a complete night mare and because it is not an allergy you get no help from NHS. It is a horrible feeling you feel so bad and it takes hours to wear off antihistamines don’t help.

That’s a tough one.

You say antihistamines don’t help. Maybe worth trying a ‘low histamine diet’ , if not already, in addition?

Worth a read of Dr Joneja info on foods matter website?

Severe insomnia a symptom of excess histamine.
