Histidine

Histidine is needed during periods of growth, stress, and recovery from illness and injury. It is essential for the growth and repair of tissues and in the maintenance of nerve cells.

One of the more significant ways that your body uses histidine is to protect itself from allergies. Your body uses histidine to make histamine, which reduces your sensitive to allergens, however; your body can not make all the histamine you need, making histidine a semi-essential amino acid

Histidine is also a protector. It is needed for the production of both red and white blood cells and protects the body from radiation damage.
