INTRODUCTION

Are avocados allowed on the Histamine Diet?

Is chocolate high-histamine or low-histamine?

Can I have a glass of red wine with my dinner?

How can I live without tomato ketchup?

Yes, the Low-Histamine Diet is an absolute minefield. And so we are delighted you’ve bought our Histamine Intolerance Cookbook. After the success of Histamine Intolerance Explained, we realized there is a need for a place where good, low-histamine diet information and recipes all come together in one guide. So, here it is.

What to Expect

In this Histamine Intolerance Cookbook, we start by going over – briefly – Histamine Intolerance and why it might affect you. But we know that you already might have looked into all that, duh – you bought a Histamine Intolerance Cookbook. So without further ado, we move straight on to the world’s most respected dietary information regarding histamine content in food. You can come back to our Histamine Food List again and again – we find it particularly useful when out in restaurants and perusing menus.

And then on to the recipes. We’ve packed our cookbook with delicious, nourishing recipes, and every ingredient is labeled for histamine content. Mouthwatering recipes like...

HONEY ROSEMARY AND BUTTER ROAST CHICKEN with artichoke

HEALTHY SWEET POTATO FRITTATA with courgette and fresh parsley

COURGETTE, BASIL AND MINT RICE PASTA - a taste explosion

BLUEBERRY-FLAVORED QUINOA BAKE topped with creamy coconut and golden flaxseed.

HOMEMADE LOW-HISTAMINE KETCHUP - better than the real thing!

CUCUMBER AND POMEGRANATE PUNCH with fresh ginger to lower your histamine bucket

With sections on breakfasts, starters, main courses, low-histamine meat dishes, desserts, and secret sauces, as well as histamine-lowering snacks (often tricky for us histamine people, but not now), you’ll learn to celebrate and love food again on the low histamine diet. You’ll also find special extra nuggets dotted throughout the book, where we talk in a bit more detail about some of our favourite ingredients such as pea shoots, flaxseed and celery. Some of these magical foods we talk about can help to lower your histamine levels all on their own, and nourish you at the same time.

It’s All about Self-Interest Really

But first, a confession: Part of the reason for writing this book is self-interest. We, too, suffer from histamine intolerance and we find it so hard to find the right information on what we can, and cannot eat.  There’s actually a good reason for that. One important thing to point out straightaway is that no two people are the same when it comes to histamine symptoms, and what specifically causes a flare-up.

Our Unique Approach to Low Histamine Recipes

So we looked at the other low-histamine cookbooks (there aren’t many and the choice isn’t great!), and decided on a special approach that we think will make it the easiest histamine intolerance cookbook to use in the world. In this book, we’ve consulted the most respected diet lists worldwide to create our recipes, and to make it as easy as possible to stay healthy, we’ve listed the histamine content of each ingredient on every single recipe throughout the book. You’ll find the ingredients to be low-histamine (L), medium-histamine (M), or high-histamine (H). We’re proud of this approach and hope it makes it as simple as possible to eat healthily.

Our References; Principle Sources for Histamine Diet Information

After much consultation with people in the histamine intolerance community, the almost-unanimous verdict was that our principle source for information regarding histamine content in food should be the SIGHI Swiss Interest Group Histamine Intolerance. It is a very well respected site which many Histamine Intolerant individuals consult daily) and we urge you to have a look. It also breaks foods down into different types regarding histamine, for instance, some foods may not contain histamine, but they can liberate histamine from your body. For the purposes of this book, we’ve digested and simplified that information so you won’t be cooking with foods that cause a histamine reaction.

Based largely on the SIGHI research, we’ve listed the histamine content of each ingredient on every single recipe throughout the book. You’ll find the ingredients to be low-histamine (L), medium-histamine (M), or high-histamine (H).

As with all things Histamine Intolerance however, there are always different views and we’ve also consulted Beth O’Hara’s Mast Cell 360 Low Histamine Diet List which is a fantastic resource, as well as our sister site, Tony Wrighton’s The Histamine Intolerance Site Food List. Those sites have also been fantastic in putting together this book and this list. In short, we
