Honey Cake with Histamine Intolerance

Status: Allowed with restrictions

Honey Cake is classified as conditionally suitable for Histamine Intolerance based on current dietary assessments. Sweets generally contain high amounts of sugar and saturated fats and are therefore included only sparingly in most dietary concepts. With histamine intolerance, attention is paid to the histamine content and histamine-releasing properties of foods, as the body cannot break down histamine sufficiently. The reasoning given is: spices, dough proofing and storage increase histamine potential. The assessment is based on conservative experience-based assessments.
