Cinnamon is a problem for me with histamine reactions
Perhaps thats why the insomnia since I have histamine issues too. Best to take small amounts of tea in the morning only then.

Cinnamon is a problem for me with histamine reactions
Rash, itch, dandruff, sleep issues and pressure behind my eyes. Cinnamon is a histamine liberator.Really, I'm usually really sensitive to histamine .
But I took 500mg around an hour ago and noticed only benefits .
What symptoms do you get from cinnamon?
Ok thx , will keep an eye out for those symptoms.Rash, itch, dandruff, sleep issues and pressure behind my eyes. Cinnamon is a histamine liberator.
Why ?Try using the sticks of Ceylon cinnamon make a tea rather than ingesting the powder
OkThe powder is histamine liberating for some people. The tea may not be.
Both l-Ornithine and Taurine lower blood sugar.hey guys!
1. Can I take 500 mg l-ornithine with taurine 1000mg? Do they conflict?
2. Is it better take on the morning or in the evening?
3. How can I recognise that my liver starts better neutralize ammonia?
thanks!

Hello, the neurobiological impacts of hyperammonemia (elevated ammonia levels) are one of my main areas of research. Ammonia is the most potent neurotoxin naturally existent in the human body. Even slight elevations, over time, may lead to neurodegenerative disease including Alzheimers Disease. (Ali, 2020). If you are having brain fog and other problems relieved by Ornithine, it could be indicative of a high serum ammonia level and you should discuss this with your physician. The main condition which causes hyperammonemia is liver cirrhosis, but there are numerous other conditions which can be causative, and can result in cognitive impairments including encephalopathy)(Kalra, 2020--See Table #1).
Ornithine triggers the Urea Cycle and is an adjunctive treatment for patients with Urea Cycle Disorders; a rare inborn error of metabolism. I will also caution you that Ornithine can deplete Arginine over time, which can also cause ammonia elevations. I will attach two (2) of my favorite (generalized) Pubmed articles about non-cirrhotic hyperammonemia as well as the mechanism of action for how ammonia causes neurotoxicity.

Although I am not willing to make a recommendation to treat a potential disease, you might also look into L-Ornithine L-Aspartate (LOLA) in your research endeavors. See Butterworth, R. F., & McPhail, M. (2019). L-Ornithine L-Aspartate (LOLA) for Hepatic Encephalopathy in Cirrhosis: Results of Randomized Controlled Trials and Meta-Analyses. Drugs, 79(Suppl 1), 31–37. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40265-018-1024-1
Good luck,

I would also add thiamine to this listBoth l-Ornithine and Taurine lower blood sugar.
l-Ornithine is good at night because it promotes better sleep, better sleep is a good sign of ammonia clearance.
Common symptoms of elevated blood ammonia level
p.s l-Ornithine does raise nitric oxide
- Confusion.
- Fatigue/insomnia.
- Loss of appetite.
- Nausea with or without vomiting.
- Pain in the back, sides or abdomen.
- Weakness (loss of strength)
Ceylon Cinnamon is a safe way to reduce ammonia, so is zinc
