Histamine is produced naturally by most animals, some plants and organisms. It's also present in some insects' venom. I believe it is a protein, formed by the decarboxylation of the amino acid histidide.
Not only can raw tuna be refrigerated, it must be refrigerated or even frozen quickly after harvest to prevent histamine formation.
Histamine poisoning, also known as scombroid poisoning, occurs when certain fish, such as tuna and mackerel, are improperly stored and begin to spoil. The spoilage leads to the production of high levels of histamine due to bacterial action on the fish's flesh, which can cause symptoms like flushing, sweating, and gastrointestinal distress upon consumption. It's important to note that histamine itself is not a traditional toxin but rather a chemical that can cause toxic effects when present in excessive amounts. Proper handling and storage of fish are crucial to prevent this type of poisoning.
The plural of tuna remains tuna.
Histamine itself does not directly cause eczema, but it can play a role in the condition's symptoms. Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, is primarily associated with an overactive immune response and skin barrier dysfunction. When the skin is inflamed, histamine is released, which can lead to itching and redness. Therefore, while histamine is involved in the inflammatory response, it is not the root cause of eczema.
