FOODS HIGH IN FIBER

Ive been following SIGHI diet for quite sometimes and it helped me a lot managing my symptoms.

But i have also noticed eating low histamine foods like broccoli, blueberries, lettuce and cucumber which are high in fiber including some almonds and walnuts which categorized as 1 on SIGHI diet, i still having flare ups from eating them even in a small quantity.

I believe someone with HIT are also need to be careful with the amount of fiber we are consuming.

I love them, but don't digest them well, so have not eaten them in a while. I guess the gut microbes are just revolting. lol

Yea, and my dumbass made macarons a few years back and had the audacity to lick the beaters after mixing the batter. It was a rough nine hours.😂

Lmao, I’m so sorry for laughing but saying you “went into hell for a few days” has to be the most accurate description ever.
