What? Nettles have histamine? Wow, I used to drink the tea, alot! The
thought was it is good for allergies. I tried to naturalize it in my
garden, but it didn't take. There is a rhyme about it...

"If they wold drink nettles in March and eat mugwort in May
so many fine maidens wouldn't go to the clay."

Maybe you should search in March, maybe it is a spring tonic sort of thing?
