DeLack says 'Procarin' is a treatment for MS, not a cure. DeLack wants to get the treatment approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the USA, but that could take years and millions of dollars spent on rigorous testing. Undeterred, DeLack is making Procarin available now to everyone with MS who wants it - and who can afford it. Histamine is a chemical produced in the body from the essential amino acid histidine. Histidine is metabolised into the neurotransmitter Histamine, which is used by the body in response to foreign substances.
Histidine plays an important part in the production of red and white blood cells.
It also helps to maintain the myelin sheath. Histamine also opens up blood vessels. Histidine is released from mast cells when provoked by such things as nettle and bee stings. US doctors involved in Procarin think people with MS are deficient in histamine and oxygen. Caffeine is a nerve stimulant.
