Savoring Sushi Safely: Top Picks for Histidine-Restricted Diets
Navigating sushi restaurants with histidine restrictions can feel overwhelming, but mm food turns dining out into a stress-free experience. Our app translates menus in real time and flags dishes that align with your dietary needs, ensuring you enjoy delicious sushi without compromising your health.
Why Sushi? Tips for Histidine-Conscious Choices
Sushi’s simplicity makes it easier to identify ingredients, but histidine content varies widely. Avoid fermented items like soy sauce and pickled ginger, which may trigger histamine buildup. Opt for fresh fish like salmon or tuna in moderation, and prioritize shellfish-free rolls if sensitive.
