Advanced groups will participate in a webinar on supplementation protocols for the treatment of DAO deficiency in different types of SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), led by Adriana Duelo, director of the IDAO. Meanwhile, newly joined professionals at the Institute will have access to a webinar on the therapeutic approach to DAO deficiency in the presence of various digestive pathologies, presented by Sara Sánchez, clinical nutritionist and member of the IDAO’s core team.

The International Institute of DAO Deficiency will be present at the III FINUT Conference (Ibero-American Nutrition Foundation), which will take place this week in Medellín, Colombia. We are participating by presenting a poster on a study we are conducting in collaboration with the University of Barcelona to examine the evolution of symptoms and DAO enzyme activity in pregnant women with symptoms associated with excess histamine.

The International Institute of DAO Deficiency is pleased to announce that it will expand its international presence through a new edition of the License Program starting this October. Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Romania, and Uzbekistan are the countries that will expand their roster of professionals or welcome specialists in DAO deficiency for the first time.
