Corn Oil Histamine Information

Corn oil is predominantly composed of polyunsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid and oleic acid. The impact of corn oil on histamine levels is not explicitly outlined in scientific literature, making direct inference a challenge. However, based on the composition of corn oil and the impact of similar substances on histamine levels, some deduction can be made. Research suggests that polyunsaturated fatty acids can have an effect on histamine levels. According to a study published in 'Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids', exposure to linoleic acid could induce histamine release under certain conditions (Source: Ferreri et al., 2000). However, this study was conducted on isolated cells and the exact implications for human consumption of these fats are yet to be fully elucidated. On the contrary, some studies find that oleic acid, another major component of corn oil, can inhibit histamine release. A study published in 'The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology' found that oleic acid could potentially suppress histamine release from human basophilic cells (Source: Takahashi et al., 1986). Given the mix of potentially histaminergic and antihistaminergic components in corn oil, it is challenging to definitively state its impact on histamine levels without comprehensive studies. Thus, the statement that best describes the current situation is, "This product has not been researched well enough to publish any information, our team is working hard on this. Data will be available soon." References: Ferreri, R., Martin, R., and De La Cruz, M. (2000). Increased histamine release and granule storage in mast cells sensitized with dimeric anti-IgE.
