Broccoli & histamine FAQ
Is Broccoli high in histamine?
Low in histamine — a safe everyday green. Broccoli is low in histamine and a dependable green for a restricted diet, useful for adding bulk and nutrients without the risk that spinach carries. Buy it fresh and cook it soon after; like all produce, it is best not left to age in the fridge for a week before eating.
Can I eat Broccoli on a low-histamine diet?
Yes. Broccoli is considered low-histamine and is generally well tolerated on a low-histamine diet, as long as it is fresh and not fermented or aged.
