Summary

This trial investigates whether a low-histamine and pseudoallergen-free diet can reduce symptoms like hives and itching in children aged 1 to 18 with chronic spontaneous urticaria. Participants follow the diet for 4 weeks while continuing standard care. Researchers track changes in symptom scores, disease control, quality of life, and medication use to see if dietary changes help.
