FAQ DAOfood

Here you can find many questions and answers about our DAOfood products.

DAOfood Plus or DAOfood mini tablets: which one should I choose?
The amount of the active Diamine Oxidase enzyme is the same for both products, namely 20,000-30,000 HDU per tablet/capsule. Do you only want to use the Diamine Oxidase enzyme? Then it is best to choose the DAOfood Mini tablets. These are easy to swallow (5mm diameter). If you also like the benefits of the additional active ingredients Vitamin C and Quercetin, then choose the DAOfood Plus capsules.

What is the difference between the DAOfood Plus and DAOfood mini tablets?
The DAOfood mini tablets contain only the Diamine Oxidase enzyme, packed in a small tablet (diameter 5mm). In addition to Diamine Oxidase, the DAOfood Plus also contains vitamin C and Quercetin, packed in a capsule. Both the DAOfood Mini tablets and the DAOfood Plus capsules contain 20,000-30,000 HDU per tablet/capsule.

Are there completely different ingredients in the DAOfood products?
The active substance in DAOfood is the Diamine Oxidase enzyme. In addition, DAOfood Plus capsules also contain the active ingredients Vitamin C and Quercetin.
 
How can you say that DAOfood contains 20,000 - 30,000 HDU per capsule or tablet, but the number of mg of pork kidney extract is always the same?
We can imagine that this may seem confusing! With enzymes, however, the number of mg does not say much about the effectiveness/strength of the enzyme. The exact number of HDU can differ per batch. Diamine Oxidase is a very difficult enzyme, which means that the same efficacy cannot be achieved every time per batch. The current batch (2006A) DAOfood Plus contains 27390 HDU and the current batch (2002) DAOfood mini tablets contains 28000 HDU Diamine Oxidase.

Why is the maximum number of capsules per day that I can take only 3 capsules?
The European Commission has now determined that a maximum of 3 capsules or tablets per day may be taken, equal to 0.9 mg Diamine Oxidase.
