24. Histamine





Histamine is a chemical located in certain cells of the body. It is the cause of symptoms you get when you have allergies such as sneezing and a runny nose. (explains why I posted a picture of a nose) Being allergic to something, your bodies immune system automatically goes into attack mode. As a way to protect your body, histamine is released and you are given symptoms to help flush the allergen out of you.
