Enjoying Sushi Safely with Histidine Restrictions: A Complete Guide

Dining out with histidine restrictions can feel daunting—especially at sushi restaurants where fish and fermented ingredients are abundant. But with mm food, you can savor sushi confidently. Here’s how our app transforms your dining experience:

Why Sushi Poses Challenges

Histidine-rich foods like tuna, mackerel, and fermented sauces (soy sauce, miso) dominate sushi menus. For those with histidine metabolism disorders (like histidinemia), these ingredients can trigger adverse reactions. Traditional dining makes avoiding hidden histidine sources a stressful guessing game.

mm food's Solution: Precision and Peace of Mind

1. Instant Menu Translation
   Snap a photo of any sushi menu—whether in Japanese, Korean, or another language. Our AI instantly translates dish names and ingredients into your native language, eliminating confusion.
2. Histidine-Specific Filtering
   Set "histidine restriction" as your dietary profile (pre-loaded or customized). The app scans menu items, flagging high-histidine ingredients like fish roe, aged fish, and soy-based dressings.
3. Personalized Safe Recommendations
   Get real-time suggestions for compliant dishes:

• Low-histidine options: Seaweed salads, cucumber rolls, or whitefish sashimi (e.g., flounder).
• Customizable alerts: Avoid fermented items and request substitutions (e.g., vinegar rice instead of soy-marinated).

Pro Tips for Sushi Success

• Verify Preparation: Use the app to check if "steamed" or "grilled" dishes contain hidden fish stock or sauces.
• Communicate Confidently: Share your app-generated dietary card with chefs to ensure safe meal prep.
• Plan Ahead: Analyze online menus via mm food before visiting the restaurant.
