Your Guide to Histidine-Restricted Sushi Dining

Dining out with histidine restrictions can feel overwhelming, especially at sushi restaurants where unfamiliar ingredients and language barriers complicate choices. Histidine-restricted diets are critical for managing conditions like histidinemia, requiring careful avoidance of high-protein fish, shellfish, and fermented sauces. But with the right tools, you can savor sushi safely and confidently.

Why Sushi Poses Unique Challenges

Navigating sushi menus involves decoding potential high-histidine hazards like:

• Raw fish (tuna, salmon)
• Shellfish (shrimp, crab)
• Fermented items (soy sauce, miso paste)
• Fish roe (tobiko, ikura) Language differences in imported menus add another layer of complexity, increasing the risk of accidental exposure.
