Breakfast ideas
Blueberry smoothie bowl without banana
Easy to make and the most fun and fruity breakfast or low histamine vegan snack that is packed with goodness from the oats, chia seeds and blueberries. Don't forget to sprinkle on some pumpkin seeds or some desiccated coconut for a bit of crunch!
Apple pie porridge
Perfect for colder mornings, this is so hearty and warming. I love cooked apples, and this is so indulgent with a touch (or more!) of maple syrup.
Apple blackberry smoothie
A fun breakfast for when you want something a bit lighter. I love this after a run for my 'second breakfast' too!
Ginger turmeric granola
Granola is such a favourite of mine, and this version is full of flavour with tasty spices and maple syrup.
Lunch recipes
Winter root vegetable soup
Always a go-to in the colder months, this soup is packed with veggies and is so full of flavour, warming and cosy.
Creamy wild rice vegetable soup
A hearty soup with wild rice and creamy coconut milk that still feels light and flavourful.
Quinoa vegetable soup
A fragrant soup with low histamine herbs and spices. Equally delicious for lunch or dinner!
A light, herby and nutty rice noodle dish that is especially lovely in the summer months.
Vegan cauliflower alfredo
Creamy, herby and the best low histamine vegan comfort food dinner!
Coriander and pumpkin seed pesto
Comfort food classic! But with a low histamine vegan twist. The pesto is herby and tangy, but without dairy.
Snacks
Apple trail mix
A healthy and fun treat, that both adults and kids will love! All whole foods with tasty baked apple for sweetness.
Carrot cake energy balls
A fun snack that is filled with goodness. Dates are a little controversial on a low histamine diet, so be sure you are able to tolerate them.
Pumpkin seed and coconut clusters
These kid-friendly clusters are the perfect crunchy snack for mid-afternoon!
Melon peach smoothie
So fresh and fruity and has feels like the taste of summer.
Sweet treats
Spiced poached pears
A very pretty dessert that looks a little fancy, but is actually very easy to make. We use apple juice rather than wine for a vegan and non-alcoholic sweet treat.
Grilled peaches with coconut cream
The easiest sweet treat there is! Grilled peaches are so indulgent, with an amazing sweetness that pairs so well with the creamy coconut.

Hi Maureen, hope that you enjoy the recipes and that the diet helps you!
Legumes, seeds, nuts, and soy products are all excellent sources of protein that are safe for a low histamine diet. However, it's essential to include these foods in moderation to avoid increasing histamine levels in your body. Another great source of protein for a low histamine vegan diet is quinoa.
Rice protein, pea protein, hemp protein, and egg white protein are all low in histamine, so it is best to start with one of these protein sources. Then, make sure that your protein powder does not contain added preservatives and colorings.
Foods which are reported as having lower histamine levels include most fresh produce, fresh meat, certain fresh/frozen fish, eggs including quail eggs and most fresh herbs.
Generally speaking, it is advised to avoid all pork if you are following a low histamine diet as pork is particularly high in histamines. The GOOD NEWS however, is that lamb and chicken are generally low in histamine. Our lamb and chicken, in particular, are extremely fresh, most likely the freshest you will find.
What is the most powerful natural antihistamine? Researchers haven't yet established any natural product as the “best” or “most powerful.” Natural antihistamines with the most research backing their use include stinging nettle, vitamin C, quercetin, butterbur, bromelain, and probiotics.
Coffee is high in histamine which can set off what looks like an allergic reaction but it doesn't occur through the typical allergy mechanism. Instead, the histamine from the coffee causes an inflammatory reaction that can be quite severe in some people.
There is currently no cure for histamine intolerance. The key to success is for the patient to learn to adjust to a low-histamine diet and manage the condition(s) until it either goes away, or for life.
Diamine oxidase (DAO) supplements are over-the-counter products that restore the diamine oxidase enzyme in your body. They help break down histamine-rich foods and may reduce symptoms of histamine intolerance. Research shows that these supplements might offer relief from headaches, digestive issues, and skin reactions.
Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water can help flush out histamine and other toxins from the body. Aim for at least 8 cups of water a day. Avoid triggers: Certain triggers, such as tobacco smoke and certain medications, can increase histamine levels. Avoiding these triggers can help reduce histamine levels in your body.
Histamine intolerance (HIT) is assumed to be due to a deficiency of the gastrointestinal (GI) enzyme diamine oxidase (DAO) and, therefore, the food component histamine not being degraded and/or absorbed properly within the GI tract.
Vegan protein powders, such as those derived from pea, rice, or hemp, are often lower in histamine compared to animal-based protein powders. Additionally, they are generally well-tolerated and can provide a complete amino acid profile to support muscle growth and repair.
