Navigating Seafood Menus with Confidence: TMAU-Friendly Dining Made Simple

For individuals managing Trimethylaminuria (TMAU), dining at seafood restaurants can feel like navigating a minefield. Seafood dishes often contain high levels of trimethylamine (TMA) and choline—compounds that can exacerbate TMAU symptoms. With the mm food app, you can transform seafood dining from stressful to satisfying. Here’s how:

Instant Menu Translation & TMAU Analysis

Our app scans menus in real time, translating them into your native language while simultaneously checking for TMA-rich ingredients like fish, shellfish, and seafood-derived sauces. Customize your dietary profile to flag problematic items, and receive immediate alerts about dishes containing:

• High-choline fish (e.g., salmon, cod)
• Shellfish (shrimp, crab, lobster)
• Fish sauces or broths

Smart Substitutions & Safe Choices

The app doesn’t just say "no"—it helps you say "yes!" Our AI suggests TMAU-friendly alternatives commonly found in seafood restaurants, such as:

• Grilled chicken or plant-based proteins
• Vegetarian sushi rolls (avocado, cucumber)
• Salads with citrus-based dressings
• Roasted vegetable platters

Proactive Dining Strategies

1. Preview Menus: Use the app’s restaurant search to analyze menus before arriving.
2. Ask Confidently: Generate translated requests like “No seafood broth, please” in the local language.
3. Cross-Contamination Alerts: Identify restaurants that accommodate special prep requests.

With mm food, you can savor the ambiance of seafood restaurants without sacrificing safety. Reclaim the joy of dining out—one TMAU-aware meal at a time.
